Subject: RE: Folk rock - Got a favorite?
So, who remembers Cat Mother and the All Night Newsboys, with Jay Unger on fiddle?.. Albion Doowah is a favorite album of mine, as is the Kaleidescope album titled Kaleidescope... never re-issued, either one, as far as I know... maybe I'll try eBay. I have both of the records, and they still sound fresh. And of course, I loved The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by the Incredible Stringband... kinda precious rock, rather than folk rock, but it still sounds good to me. Their earlier album when they were a tree was close to a straight folk album. But then, they never really "rocked." I'd put the Holy Modal Rounders in there too... I remember Pete Stamfell when he was doing psychedelic Uncle Dave Macon as a solo.
