If ever ther was a great lost classic, this is it. 'Begin' is a true psychadelic pop masterpiece, and deserves to be regarded on equal terms with revolver, pet sounds, forever changes and the like. What is immediately apparrent is the production and arrangements - awash with a wide range of instruments, melody and invention. A xylophone in 1968! Despite the psychadelic overtones, Carl Boettcher's songs are pure pop, bright, breezy and optimistic. One of the greatest albums of the 60's.

Simply put, Begin by The Millennium is one of the most beautiful and well produced albums of the sixties. Some may find some of the tracks a bit twee and hippiesque but if you are a fan of Pet Sounds and the like, this would be utterly Indespenible.
In my quest to find "Lost Classics" from the sixties this, possibly more than any other is THEE great undiscovered gem. Sounding like a hybrid of Magical Mystery Tour and Pet Sounds, taking cues from both but keeping enough originality to stand apart from either.
The first two tracks, "Prelude" and "To Claudia On Thursday" seque into each other and sound like two parts of the same track. They are pretty base heavy and sound so chrystal clear. From this stellar begining you know you are in for something special and the quality never lets up.
Other highlights are "The Island, Some Sunny Day, It Wont Always Be The Same and The Know It All" are all truly a+ tracks. It is incredible to have so many stellar songs on just one album.
Leaving the best for last though "There Is Nothing More To Say" is a thing of enormous beauty, my only complaint is the brevity.
I have no idea how such masterpieces escape the mainstream success they deserve, however it is simply delighful for collectors and enthusiats to unearth down the line and pass on to like minded colleagues. 10/10

This album has been on my wishlist for a number of years now and the wait has been worth it.
Being a fan of the psychedelic Haight-Ashbury scene, I have managed to pick out some lost classics in the past such as Kak and Quicksilver to name but a few.
Curt Boetcher has here managed to create a flawless pop album in the same vein as the Beatles and the Monkees did, with elements of pop/rock/psych/folk that combine to form a sparkling album that works on any level you want it to.
It's such a shame that this is one of the most difficult albums on the face of the planet to acquire. But then again, the best ones always are!
