HEARTS AND FLOWERS
DAVID DAWSON, LARRY MURRAY, BERNIE LEADON
Hearts and Flowers were one of the most eclectic groups on the Southern California
folk-rock scene in the '60s, skewing more to the folk side of the equation and often
adding flourishes of psychedelia and, most importantly, bluegrass and country music

SLEEVE EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Future Flying Burrito Brother/Eagle Bernie Leadon replaced Rick Cunha for the group's second
and final album, which is actually a considerably more L.A. pop-flavored production than their debut.
Country-seasoned folk-rock remains at the core of the group's sound, but producer
Nik Venet provides occasional tasteful, psychedelic-tinged orchestral arrangements.
The material -- about half original -- is fairly strong, especially their covers of Arlo Guthrie's
"Highway in the Wind" and Jesse Lee Kincaid's "She Sang Hymns Out of Tune" (also
covered by Harry Nilsson on his first album). The unquestioned highlight is Larry Murray's
"Ode to a Tin Angel"; by far the group's most psychedelic slice of folk-rock, with its
swimming strings, tripped-out lyrics, and sweet harmonies, it's also their most atypical track.
A slicker, but better, album than their first effort...(AllMusic)
