In 1968 four of the five original members of The Wizards From Kansas formed a band called 'New West', and began playing in the Lawrence, Kansas area, at clubs and parties. Californian guitarist Robert Manson Crain joined the group soon thereafter, expanding to a quintet. Reaching on the same esoteric drift as Clear Light or Emitt Rhodes, the band unleashed an even excellent cover of Buffy Sainte-Marie 'Cod'ine', more in the vein of Quicksilver M.S.
