Q: Can anyone tell me the name of the 60s or 70s post-rock group that recorded "Japanese Sandman?" This track of their recording contained the spoken message, "Sherman, set the Wayback Machine for l957 and..."

A: 'Im afraid I've found several music groups that have a song of that title. The main one being a Swing Jazz guy named Freddy Gardner and an individual named Djargo Rhinehardt. However these musicians are all in Jazz of some kind.

Although I wonder if you mean the group The Masked Marauders who did a song called I am the Japanese Sandman.

"Sherman set the Wayback Machine" is of course a reference to Mr. Peabody and his pet human Sherman from The Rocky and Bullwinkle show. (You never know, some people may miss the reference)
