The High Spirits

The High Spirits was a garage rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota active in the 1960s and signed with Soma Records.

While there was a small rotation of members, the original line-up consisted of lead guitar/manager Owen Husney, drums Doug Ahrens, lead vocals Cliff Siegel, bass guitar Rick Beresford, rhythm guitar Rick Levinson, and Jay Luttio on keyboards.

[2] A Top 40 chart from San Jose in September 1965 showed that the record was ranked Number 33 in that market.

The flip side, recorded at the same session, was "Bright Lights, Big City," a cover of a Jimmy Reed/The Animals tune.

In 2006, the band was inducted into the Minnesota Rock Country Hall of Fame for their contribution to music history.
