Jason Crest (formerly The Good Thing Brigade) were an English psychedelic pop group from Tonbridge, Kent, active from around 1967 to 1969. Despite releasing five singles on Philips between 1967 and 1968 (including a cover version of The Move's "(Here We Go Round) the Lemon Tree"), the band never achieved commercial success and disbanded towards the end of the 1960s when their recording contract with Philips expired.^{[citation needed]}

However, the singles "Black Mass", "Turquoise Tandem Cycle", "(Here We Go Round) The Lemon Tree" and "Place in the Sun" have since appeared on the Rubble collections of British psychedelia and freakbeat, and the band garnered a modest cult following.

Jason Crest's fourth single, "Waterloo Road" (1968), was adapted into French as "Les Champs-Élysées" by singer Joe Dassin and reached number one in France.
