Highly esteemed by some collectors, Kaleidoscope epitomized certain of the more precious traits of British psychedelia with their fairy-tale lyrics and gentle, swirling folky sound. At times they sound like a far more melodic and accessible Incredible String Band. Their folky ballads have aged best, there's some period charm to be found throughout their two albums as well,

The Kaleidoscope evolved into Fairfield Parlour in the Seventies.
