So while reading the bio, I saw that the band (minus lead singer Lydia) went on as Year One. Does anyone know anything about that band?

Didn't try to search it up. It was mentioned in one place on a side note - and when going through the memorials for Jamene Miller it wasn't mentioned there either; so I presume they didn't make much of an impact.
On Rateyourmusic I see they released a double album in 1971, and are credited with a few singles later on in the 70's.

It was a pleasure for me to discover this band, and I cannot thank you enough for that, Tim!  We'll definitely be looking forward to more suggestions, as we know there are still many Seventies bands that haven't been included in our database.

^^Yeah Fantasy was also included on a double album released by Libert Records to showcase their bands along with two singles (one which has two non album A & B-Sides. The B-side, Painted Horse, is one of their most progressive songs.) Both those singles, or all four songs, are included as bonus tracks on Black Frills Records CD release.

^^well, you are both right...
I'm really pleased that these guys (and girl..  ) have been accepted by the Psychedelic/ Space Rock team, and Olav (Windhawk) will be taking care of the addition... |

Painted Horse is simply one of their best songs, I'm surprised it wasn't included on the album. I Got the Fever is pretty good, I like it, but its also a goofy song that sounds nothing like their one and only album. Now that I think about it, it sounds like a whole new band just with the original singer Lydia Janene Miller. Perhaps I Got the Fever is a solo effort on her part?
And of course Stoned Cowboy and Understand are just single edits that may or may not be essential.

(Sigh) I have a sad piece of information for one of you collabs to add to Fantasy's bio. Lead singer Jamene Miller died September 27, 2008. I just found out by doing a quick search of her on google and I found her website. I then went to the guestbook page and found that former Fantasy keyboardist Mario Anthony Russo and bass player Bob Robbins commented on her death. Very sad and unfortunate.
Here's her website, the home page has pictures of her but nothing else.
