About this recording, "The Trip's" songwriter, and original artist and producer,
Kim Fowley said, "Great, guys! Thanks so much."
This new recording of "The Trip", has a timeless quality about it. It was originally recorded and
released in 1965 by Kim Fowley who is known as "one of the most colourful characters in the
annals of rock & roll" and as "a shadowy cult figure well outside the margins of the mainstream."
Kim discovered and managed "The Runaways", whose song "
Cherry Bomb" (co-written by Kim
Fowley and Joan Jett) is currently featured on the gold certified "Guardians of the Galaxy"
Soundtrack. Kim's autobiography, "The Lord of Garbage" reads like a rock and roll hall of fame.
"Kim Fowley … is among the more infamous members of the rock and roll community. Best
known as the Svengali-manager of "The Runaways", Kim released an unusual pop single in the
mid-60'S called 'The Trip.' It is a mainstay of any anthology of 60's psychedelia"
