Lovely, mysterious, superb for tripping...

The other dude's wack. This album is shiver-inducingly beautiful, spooky & sparkly. This ranks with Simon Finn's Pass the Distance as one of the greatest...

4 1/2 Stars of Trippy Contemplation
14 July 2010
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The one star review is pretty funny, because the guy misses the point of acid folk: it's naive and that's its charm. It's like giving Dr Dre one star for making gangster rap. Mark Fry's music is very trippy in a subtle way building shimmering layers of strums and rhythms. Anyway many highly rated obscurities when you finally hear them are a let down, but I found that this delivers in full. Fry wrote the extensive liner notes which are quite informative. My only gripe is the absence of detail on instrumental personnel. After reading the positive reviews I listened to the 28 second sound samples and was sold.

Mr. Zukerman must not like psych/folk...?
7 July 2009
Format:Audio CD
Yes! This is a REAL lost classic here!
Beautiful trippy stuff,that out-does the Donovan album the "import" stole the artwork from(Barabajagle).
Here light acoustic sounds blend with Mark's voice and make for a nice dreamy landscape. "The Witch" is a favorite, with hand drums ,use of eastern scales,and lyrics about an entrancing witch coming through a window while Mr. Fry's "...alone ,waiting for someone to come on home...". I think this witch has "seduction" on her mind,...but that may just be my feelings intruding here?
One other song keeps recurring throughout the album like a strange hallucination about religious and mythical visions.
Over all this album, that was only originally released in Italy,surely ranks highly as far as "lost" or hardly heard albums go. It's not just highly sought after because it's rare,.....this one is great too!
If you love Psychcedelic Folk,this is a must have.
