Begin

Begin is the sole studio album released by the American music group the Millennium released in August 1968 on Columbia Records. The group first appeared after members from various Los Angeles pop groups such as the Ballroom, Sagittarius and the Music Machine decided to collaborate on an album. Begin was the second album to use sixteen-track recording technology following Simon & Garfunkel's album Bookends. The group wrote songs in a style later described as sunshine pop, a style noted for its influence of psychedelia with rich harmony vocals and lush orchestrations. Due to the album's complex recordings and long studio time, it became the most expensive studio album recorded by 1968. The album received critical acclaim on its release, but did not sell well, failing to chart in the United States and the United Kingdom. The group abandoned a follow-up album for which they had already recorded songs.
