Here’s a terrific private press rarity that’s completely fallen under the radar. It’s way better than multi-hundred-dollar singer-songwriter/folk-rock/soft pop rarities like Richard Soutar or Mick Stevens and the entire brigade of albums inaccurately compared to Michael Angelo. Like all of those records, there’s scant amount of fuzz guitar or trippiness here. But there’s some excellent lead guitar, occasional use of hippie instruments like conga and flute, a bit of moog, unusual chord progressions and thoughtful, intelligent songwriting to go along with the requisite vocal harmonies and acoustic guitars. It’s also much less wimpy than your average CSN-influenced private press album. The highlights are “...and dream,” which has some great lead guitar, and “Eye to eye,” which rocks out (and, admittedly, veers a tad toward prog). The rest of the album is quite good too. Neat album cover; you’d think that alone would have attracted attention to it. Snap it up quick before it gets discovered and the price balloons. About 1500 copies were pressed. [AM]
