For Sale = Digipak = (CD)
As dated as a pack of joss sticks, For Sale is far from timeless. From the psychedelic cover to the offbeat band moniker to the zany instrumentation -- flute, baroque horns -- just holding, never mind listening to, the album has the power to transport you to a hippie crash pad circa 1969.

Alexander's Timeless Bloozband were definitely a second-tier act in the face of such heavy competition as The Doors, Yardbirds or The Electric Flag (to name three bands similar in mood and approach).
