Sad-tinged folk from Leonda -- an artist who appears to have some Native American affiliations, at least from the themes of the songs -- and who's working here with backings that are well-done, but never too professionally polished! The Paupers help out with a good deal of the instrumentation -- and backings are usually gentle, but with some slightly complicated phrasings in ways that almost remind us a bit of Tim Hardin at times, but which come off quite differently given Leonda's slightly bluesy vocal approach. Titles include "Zono My Bird", "Peace & Pipes", "Make It All Right", "Mother In Love", "Blue Diamond In Platinum Setting", "Mist In The Sky", and "Somebody's Gonna Ask Me Who I Was".
