Real People, Song-Poems and Other Musical Craziness

Todd-with Love From Me To You, 1979. The Acid Archives is my favorite reference guide.

That's it! And I have an original copy. Oh I gotta listen to this utoob offering NOW. Back in a sec w/ my impression(s)... oy, it is as incredibly strange as I'd remembered. The composition, the vocal quality, and (as I thought I'd recalled) the "sketched" images @ the front cover. IIRC, the rear cover included a photo of "Todd"? I gotta check this @ popsike, see what $$ it's commanding @ 2016.

Thanks a ton Bob for being my memory regarding these matters.

I can hear the piano stool or pedal squeaking away

Actually this one is quite good, interesting thread.

Real People music genre is loaded w/ special characters, folks NOT hidebound to the demands of recording labels/A&R personnel/agents, etc.

I just thought of another favourite -- nope, make that two; here's to hoping I can find (representative) examples of these two bands' original material @ utoob or that vimeo place.

Back soon w/ the goods, I hope.

Found the first: Smokin' Willie (rural Illinois circa 1971)

And from the great state of Ohio: Stone Harbour (ca 1970)

Regular Archives contributor Ron Moore was my main man during the years I was assembling the International Artists label portion of my Psych collection.

Ron also turned me on to this gem: Kennelmus - Folkstone Prism (1971?):

 

[Mystic]

Room for one more: D.R. Hooker - The Truth (1970?)

That reminds me of Fraction's album, Moon Blood. Touted as Xian Psych, you would never know it listening to it.

I have a copy of the original Fraction LP. Great "gimmick" cover as we used to say in the trader lists. Cool music too. The XIAN version of The Doors.

It looks like her output consisted of one 45 and a CD EP.
