Gruppo minore della International Artists, formatosi a Houston e con gli Euphoria, uno dei maggiori della città. Le prime sessions del gruppo sono fortemente influenzate dal suono degli Elevators con esperimenti di suono psichedelico caratterizzato da molto feedback, molto rumore e molta droga. Jimmy Frost poi usa una speciale chitarra a otto corde per ricreare atmosfere alla Byrds e James Harrell, il basso a imitare l'electric jug usato da Tommy Hall dei13th Floor Elevators in una cover del gruppo, Don't Fall Down, inserita poi nell'unico album pubblicato nel 1967. Everybody's Here è un ottimo album, tra i migliori dell'etichetta, purtroppo la cattiva reputazione della band, l'aspetto dei musicisti (capelli lunghissimi, molto pericolosi nel Texas dell'epoca) e il continuo stato confusionale durante le esibizioni dal vivo determina rapidamente la fine del gruppo. Solo Peter Black e James Harrell continueranno la loro avventura musicale in gruppi come "Endle St. Cloud" prima e "Potter St. Cloud" poi. Buon Ascolto

Hmm...Emerging from the same mid-60s Houston, Texas scene as label mates Thursday’s Children and The Red Crayola, Lost And Found were formed in 1965 and originally called themselves The Misfits, changing their name just prior to undertaking a six-month residency at Houston's Living Eye Club – one of the centres of the area’s thriving psychedelic scene.
Earlier time spent by the group on the West Coast had not been entirely wasted, as the emphasis on melody and memorable hooks so common to the City of Angels clearly seeped into the boys’ song writing, with elements of The Byrds and Love being most evident.
Lost And Found recorded their one and only album, "Everybody's Here", in the summer of 1967, working with producer Lelan Rogers and engineer Frank Davis. Made up of mostly original material written by group members Harrell and Frost, except for a cover of the Elevators' "Don't Fall Down", it was certainly a strong debut, melding the influences picked up on their LA jaunt with more esoteric elements picked up from the Elevators, they even go for some Elevators style "Electric Jug" on "Let Me Be"!
Pete Black joined Endle St. Cloud. Steve Webb played drums with Potter St. Cloud and Euphoria
