Released in 1968 on Parlophone, the record captures the colourful, increasingly adventurous sound of the British underground as beat music gave way to psychedelia, progressive pop and brass-led arrangements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe A-side, “Rudi's In Love”, is the standout track, driven by a catchy melody, prominent brass and a distinctive rhythmic feel. Its unusual blend of pop hooks, psychedelic touches and jazz-influenced instrumentation gives it a character all of its own, making it a particularly sought-after example of British psychedelia and freakbeat from the period.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOn the B-side, “You Must Be Joking” provides another glimpse of Locomotive's eccentric and inventive approach.
