oh god, JP - you don't know what you are going to turn your poor innocent thread into.... RIGHT. I would get Cosmic Rough Riders over Captain Soul. Both bands are CSNY/Byrds hybrids but the CRR have beautiful harmonies (though the lyrics are 'naff) and memorable songs.
Have you heard of the millennium, JP? It sounds like you are digging californian sunshine soul? If you are - definitely investigate the millennium.
There is a whole spectrum of music out - going on right now - which is picking up from Poptones original focus of soft pop sunshine - from Wired for Mono (a swedish band whose review I@m doing at this moment - sort of that LOUD, VERY LOUD BYRDS JANGLE meets stones, The Tyde, Beachwood Sparks (definite counter part to Cosmic Rough Riders), etc.

Still thinking of a good list for you but check out the revola links. Umm, have you heard of the Blondes? Beachwood Sparks drummer left to join the Blondes - but tis a power pop confection.
In LA - the psych scene is thriving - The Tyde, The Warlocks, etc - all fit in the mandate of deliberate retro fetishism - much like E6.

as noted on the obituary thread, bassist/vocalist Matt Harris has passed away.
I remember Matt mostly for his time in Oranger, this was one of his songs:
