    From OP:
    If you think that you've heard 'E.S.P.' before you're probably thinking The Pretty Things and the song in question will be '£.S.D' written by Dick Taylor & Phil May. It's basically the same song but The Beaver Patrol, from Hollywood, Florida, have changed the title, some other words and given themselves a writing credit as per shown on the label.
    Either way, it's a powerful fuzz drenched punker that drives hard and I mean hard. Production is by The Strangeloves member Richard Gottehrer. 'E.S.P.' was probably a little too 'out there' for the average radio listener back in mid '67. The other side 'Love Like A Lady' appears to have been the plug side as it was selected as a predicted chart spotlight in Billboard during May 1967.
