The song was banned by the BBC, leading to the cancellation of scheduled appearances on 'Top of the Pops', 'Juke Box Jury' and USA record releases.
However, the London Underground psychedelic scene allied themselves to the band as well as several influential writers and dj's. The radio pirate stations did however play the song.
Over the years the song has reached enduring cult status and was played many times by the BBC and still is today. - Rating
