• Other Info: Here’s what Ken Scott says about this rarity in Archivist: “Impressive guitar-based rock outfit with good laidback underground homemade sound. Mostly an acoustic rock format with guitars, bass, and drums. Sometimes gentle and moody, softening down to a whisper a couple times. Delicate tracks like “Time Love and You,” “Peter’s Song,” and “Communion Song” sound like they could just as easily have been lifted off one of those big-dollar UK folk privates. Other songs like “The Stoning” and “The Promise” rough it up some by increasing the electric guitar angle, and “Take the Time” even intensifies to the level of Rainbow Promise or Wilson McKinley’s Spirit of Elijah. Nice rugged vibe to the acoustic rocker “In Voyage with You.” In between are fine examples of rural hippie folkrock and melodic electric sounds. Excellent guitar soloing opportunities throughout, both acoustic and electric. Even in the quieter unplugged moments, the album has a certain cutting-edge depth that I’d say earns it the “psych” designation. Twelve original songs in all, a couple in the 6-to-7 minute range, all of them solid.” Comes with the insert.
