Housed in a sparse cover with little info, it was released in tiny quantities on the collectable Audio House label (home also of Smack). Nothing was known about the band until now: they were an obscure folk-rock trio from Kansas, comprised of 16-year-old Steve Epley plus brothers Chris and Cindy Williams. Their sound was charming, home-made folk-rock full of youthful innocence with layers of dual acoustic guitars and refreshing male-female vocals, featuring an impressive set of self-penned songs. Comparisons bring to mind Crosby Still & Nash or Shadrack Chameleon.

 

Highly recommended to any folk-rock / SSW sounds collector.

 

First time ever reissue. Full colour booklet with rare photo and liner notes by band member Steve Epley.

 

"...The combination of guitar tapestries and strong, almost Beatles-like melodies, creates an appealing experience that stands up well for repeat plays...

 

"...It's refreshing to find this gem among all the mediocre 1970s hippie-folkers being touted..."

 

"The one track with female lead vocals borders on femme soft psych, and none the worse for that. This is not a wimpy LP, but a rare case of a local band finding a melodic hippie frame that fits them perfect" - Patrick Lundborg (Acid Archives)

 

Tracklist:

 

It's Alright - Do You Hear (The People Scream) - If I Wanted To - I Wish - Slow Down - No More Loneliness - All American Boy - Love Is Real - What We Say (Everyday) - Peace - (All The) Soldiers - Firesides and Guitars
