JEFF BAKER - Loner (1971 German Prog Folk on BASF)

Maybe the most underrated album I know !
Absolute fantastic and intensive Psychedelic, only issued in 1971 on german BASF.
Loner, progressive Folkrock album, partly more rocking, partly more folky, with English vocals, highly recommendable.

Here's the front cover of the 1973 primary issue.

REVELRY - Revelry at Cambusnethan Priory (Rare 1977 UK Folk - Deroy pressing - Priory Label)

Has a couple of slightly 'dull' pseudo-medieval singalong songs, but the remaining ten tracks are excellent UK folk rock in a similar vein at times to Finn MacCuill’s Sink Ye Swim Ye, with a lovely mix of acoustic/electric instrumentation.
The group feature four-part male/female vocal harmonies on most tracks, with lead female vocals on a couple of songs, including the beautiful ‘Glencoe’.

This is on the band’s own Priory label (catalogue number is PRST 0001), but the run-out groove reveals it was actually pressed for them by Deroy (with a catalogue number of DER 1393).

ROB PEARSALL & FRIENDS - Abiding in Him (Great 1977 US Private Xian Folk LP)

Rob Pearsall and his fellow Californians deliver a pleasant simply-arranged friendly homemade blend of light, medium and heavy sounds, all more or less within that general category of west-coast melodic rural piano-and-guitar folkrock.
Maybe a bit like Parable in that respect.
The group’s quieter side focuses on piano ballads and solo acoustic songs, while diversions like the country rocking ‘Free In Jesus’ proudly plug in the guitar for a more aggressive edge.
Attractive cover illustration of woodland brook setting seems befitting of the mood.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - "Travelling Folk" (1976 UK Small Private Pressing featuring Merruwyn, Stephanie Clarke and others)

Unusually for one of Eron’s multi-artist showcases, the tracks by the various artists and bands here are not interspersed: each gets a block of ten to twelve minutes, during which they play between two and four songs. However, most of the acts are familiar from earlier Eron ventures. Skinner’s Rats still have a penchant for upbeat morris tunes, and are one of the lesser outfits here. Meanwhile, Tundra (aka the non-Vulcan’s Hammer half of Mingled) offer two lovely, haunting numbers, one traditional and one self-penned, and Mariners have reinvented themselves as a competent electric folk act. Stephanie Clarke (now minus sister Leonie) offers three delightful Spinning Jenny-style songs that are my favourites on the set, whilst Keith Pearson has unfortunately formed a band called Treacle Line that plays horrible countryish jugband stuff. Finally, there’s Merruwyn (better known for their rare album At The Grosvenor), who provide three pleasant cover versions and one excellent original composition ‘Down Among The Evergreen’. (Review by Richard Falk)

Tracklist :

A1 Skinner's Rats - Kentish Nutting Girl
A2 Skinner's Rats - Rambles of Kitty
A3 Skinner's Rats - Horn of the Hunter
A4 Skinner's Rats - Jackie Coleman
A5 Tundra - Bold Fisherman
A6 Tundra - Battle of Balaclava

JOHN SASE - "Aessence" (Great 1985 Privately pressed Acid Folk LP)

"I originally started to write Zothique and the rest of the suite of songs known as Aessence in 1972 and completed the work in 1976. After performing these songs with various ensembles of fellow musicians at the Freezer Theatre and the St. Andrews Community Concert series in Detroit, Michigan, I scraped together enough money to record and press them to vinyl in the 1980s. We used two 6-track Tascam Porta-Studios and finally did the final mix and mastering at Tanus Studios. Zothique was inspired by the book Zothique written by Clark Ashton Smith. The stories were originally published in various fantasy magazines in the 1930s, notably Weird Tales." -- John Sase

The album was released in a limited edition of 300 autographed and hand numbered copies.
This one is numbered 280/300.
US dreamy acid folk gem,with deep vibe and similar to Arthur Lee Harper, Bobb Trimble and the likes ....

STUART MARSON - Night Falls on the Orchestra (Amazing 1974 UK Singer Songwriter LP on Sweet Folk & Country)

Very great LP by Stuart Marson titled "Night Falls On the Orchestra".

The songs are :
A1 City Ways - A2 The Nineteen Fifties - A3 Across the Sound - A4 Christmas and Tchaikovsky
B1 America - B2 River to the Sea - B3 Halo Around the Moon - B4 Night Journey

In my opinion one of the best UK singer songwiters I've ever heard.
Delicate and sophisticated Folk.

CHARLES BROWNING - "A Choirboy's Lament" (Excellent 1976 US Private Folk Rock LP)

Here is an interesting excavated-from-the-tombs 70's folk record.
Charles Browning appears to be a D.C. area guitar picker/singer/songwriter.
On the back cover photo he looks pretty paranoid n' crazy.
He mainly does originals with only 2 really cool covers (Richard Farina's "Dopico" and Buffy Saint-Marie's "Cod'ine").
The music contained is mellow folk with instrumentation that pushes into the psych realm (nice use of tablas, congas, cymbals, even tubular bells).
Oh yeah, Emmylou Harris is on back-up harmony vocals for a few trax as well.

WAYNE MONBLEAU - "To My Shepherd" (1977 US Private Xian Folk)

Wayne Monbleau is that rare example of a folk-singer who can do magical things within a purely acoustic setting.
He’s similar to Bruce Cockburn in that respect, but there is also an uncanny resemblance to Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull, not only in the vocals but also the excellent guitar work and overall progressive acoustic style.
In particular ‘2,000 Years Ago’, ‘John The Baptist’ and ‘The Way, The Truth, And The Life’ all sound like they were cut from the same cloth as some of the more unplugged Tull endeavors (such as Minstrel In The Gallery).
All ten songs are strong, making To My Shepherd one of the most cohesive and remarkable folk recordings in Christian music.
(Ken Scott – The Archivist).

Another Xian Folk LP but an excellent album in my opinion !

MIKE JOHNSON - "Lord Doctor" (Great 1970 US Private Psych Folk Rock LP)

Rare 1972 Private Press Christian Psych Folk Rock album from Mike Johnson (Freedom Light Records NS-2037).
Lyrically and musically, this album is a journey through Mike Johnson's longing for a better day for mankind.
From the intense, apocalyptic visions in the storytelling of "Cause And Effect" (complete with fuzz guitar and a dark, foreboding rhythm) to the fantastic arp synth/prog psych workout lead-in to "Pride" fans of private psych folk rock will not be disappointed.

Rare original vinyl LP album of "Towards the Light" by Dan Lewis !
This album was released in 1979 by a small private press label called Imaginary Records with the catalog number IM-001. A total of 1.000 LPs were pressed in 1979.
Imaginary Records was the name that the artist chose to use, because there was actually no record company; hence, "Imaginary" Records.

"The soul of a mountain child shines through his music"  reviewed by The Native Stone, Asheville, NC 1979
This unique collectable recording is a private press release from 1979, created by a young folk songwriter in the Blue Ridge mountains of western North Carolina. Containing 12 songs, Dan Lewis wrote all the words and music, and performed on 12 instruments on the various songs, including acoustic guitars, bass guitar, electric slide guitar, mandolin, harmonicas, tambourine, talking drum, folk harp, 32 string ukelin, piano, organ and synthesizer. Lewis also drew the front cover art and liner notes art ...
