To those new to the world of Sean Bonniwell's music, there were two classic Music Machine lineups. The Bonniwell Music Machine was signed up to Warner Brothers after Bonniwell felt very dissatisfied with Original Sound, the company that's best known for what's possibly the first collections of Rock "Oldies" who only saw the single as important in an era when the album was gaining importance. A number of original Music Machine era songs found their way to the Warners album (1968), but there were about two other lineups which recorded for both Warners and even Bell, where "Mother Nature, Father Earth" came from. Sadly, Bonniwell was found recording soundtracks to B movies by 1970 after a failed solo album as TS Bonniwell - the backing track to "Dark White" by the original line up (possibly the final recording by them) wound up in The Other Side of Madness, possibly the very first Manson Exploitation film. The Day of the Wolves has a very effective theme song.

The first edition of the Music Machine is very important to Rock historians. Future hit making producer Keith Olsen was in that line up on Bass along with Future Ike and Tina Turner Live Review Guitarist Mark Landon. Doug Rhodes is on Organ, and Ron Edgar is on Drums.
