"The Misunderstood may just be the greatest lost band of the 1960s. They had the gifts, the creativity, the chemistry, the ambition, the drive - all the ingredients to make it, plus that extra indefinable 'magic' in their sound, which in its purest moments seemed tuned to a wonderful and strangely magnetic frequency. Torn apart by the Vietnam War draft the band was denied the breakthrough they deserved." --- Mike Stax "The saga of the Misunderstood is one of the most unbelievable, heartbreaking, and unlikely stories in the entire history of rock" --- Creem Magazine, September 2004 "The American Yardbirds" --- Rolling Stone Magazine: September 2004 "If I had to list the ten greatest performances I've seen in my life, one would be The Misunderstood. My god, they were a great band!" --- John Peel Interview 2003 "The Misunderstood were a band of immense talent. Their debut single, I Can Take You to the Sun, stands as one of the most powerful and best psychedelic singles ever released." --- Record Collector Magazine, July 1999 "This (I Can Take U 2 the Sun by The Misunderstood) is to my mind the best popular record that's ever been recorded" --- John Peel, TOP GEAR (BBC Radio) Nov. 8, 1968
