From OP: Cal Omen 101 - California USA 1967. No definite location on this group, but I believe they came from East LA. This has SoCal Chicano rock written all over it. Plus the label, run by DJ Godfrey Kerr, a well known champion of the Eastside Sound and a collaborator with Thee Midniters, was located in Los Angeles. He even wrote and recorded Down Whittier Boulevard (as "Godfrey") with Midniters backing. Mr Kerr played around with other two-name labels like Kay Gee and Gee Kay. This is a damn good rocker in any case.
