they came from a place called Riverside in California, hence Blue Day in riverside being the title of the 2nd, earlier side of that lp. The mall bit is right though.
Their entire history, from before pedal steel guitar whizz Glen Campbell joined to the point where he's the sole early member in 1969 and beyond is told across 4 issues of Ugly things magazine. pretty rivetting read for the most part. Ugly Things also released the original singers memoirs in book form which was pretty interesting too. Following him through the formation of the band, trip to the UK, draft dodging which winds up with him being a Krsna monk in the hills of India and onwards.
Plus they put out a cd of various recordings of the Misunderstood over several years in the 60s.
there was also a pairing of the 2 mini lps Legendary goldstar lp & Golden Glass by some other label. That's early recordings on Goldstar & the '69 line up on Golden Glass. That line-up also appear in the supershow video filmed in a warehouse on the outskirts of London, pretty interesting '69 film even with the Led Zep material having been removed.
