Sunbeam Records present the first official reissue of Blossom Toes' If Only For A Moment, originally released in 1969. Two years after their brilliant popsike debut, 1967's We Are Ever So Clean, Blossom Toes unleashed this extraordinary fusion of acid rock and prog, emphasizing how far they'd come since "the summer of love". Characterized by complex song structures and memorable guitar solos, and featuring a guest appearance on sitar from US folkie Shawn Philips, the album has gone on to become a major cult favorite. Heavily bootlegged over the years, this is its first official reissue. Produced with the band's full involvement, it comes with seven bonus tracks, encompassing non-LP singles, demos, out-takes and live performances, as well as a12-page, full-color booklet incorporating many rare photographs and a comprehensive band history, as well as an introduction from the band's leader, Brian Godding.

"Bears the influence of heavy California psychedelia and Captain Beefheart in its intricate, interwoven guitar lines and occasional gruff dissonance, leavened by close harmonies and sparkling guitar interplay." --Richie Unterberger, All Music
