James Lowe, the 82-year-old lead singer of the psychedelic rock band the Electric Prunes, passed away due to natural causes. His family highlighted his legacy of creativity and love, with a special mention of his wife, Pamela, as his eternal muse. The Electric Prunes, formed in 1965, are best known for their 1966 hit 'I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night),' which became a significant part of the psychedelic music scene. Despite a tumultuous history, Lowe's influence endured, evident in the band's revival during the 1990s.
Dad leaves behind a legacy of sound, love and boundless creativity...we know how deeply he cherished this community, and we feel that love too.
The band's second single, I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night), reached No 11 in the US, and proved their biggest hit.
Members came and went, a David Axelrod-produced album of psychedelic pop and Gregorian music flopped and inspired a disastrous live performance.
Lowe distanced himself from the band until interest resurged in the 1990s and he began touring and recording with other members of the group.
