The Thyme was a psychedelic garage rock band originating in Kalamazoo, Michigan, locally popular in the 1960s. Ralph Cole was the lead and also played sitar, Steve Vandenberge played guitar, Ed Linenthaul played drums, and (now passed) Al Wilmot on bass. Thyme often opened up Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Cream, and MC5 at venues such as the Grande Ball Room and The Union Street Station.
