A folk rock set from Eric Anderson, recorded with a bit more bite than some of his earlier work – on titles that include "Foolish Like The Flowers", "For What Was Gained", "Good To Be With You", "Avalanche", "Think About It", "So Hard To Fall", and "It's Comin & It Won't Be Long". (Rock, Folk/Country) LP, Vinyl record album

Sublime early work from Bonnie Dobson – really spare, really beautiful tracks recorded years before Dobson became more of a pop phenomenon – with a classic sound that's instantly mesmerizing, right from the very first note! The record just features Bonnie's guitar and her amazing voice – recorded perfectly by Rudy Van Gelder, who did as great of a job here as with any of his jazz sessions for Prestige Records – maybe even more so, given the intimacy of the record. Titles include "The Cruel War Is Raging", "Mistress Bond", "Envoyons De L'Avant", "The Road To Grandmere", "The Old Maid's Lament", "Across The Blue Mountain", and "Frankie Slide". CD
