Tommy Chong was one of the longest tenured Vancouvers and, before relocating to the US, a Vancouver-local business partner with Bobby Taylor. The modest success brought from the band's album and singles didn't meet his ambition and that ambition would, at least in part, lead to the dissolution of a band that was just getting started... though probably not going to do much better. Tommy Chong continued pursuing music but that would gradually give way to the greater success he found through comedy. His short-lived improv comedy troupe City Works would bring him and Cheech Marin together, and a routine was born. Cheech & Chong would release their debut album Cheech and Chong in 1971 on Ode Records.
Here is the discography surrounding Cheech & Chong's debut album:
