Description
Richard Greenwood, John Curlee, & Clyde Thompson LP "One Time, One Place" private press out of St. Paul, Minnesota pressed in 1972. This has a wonderful silkscreened cover and the lyric/photo insert. From The Acid Archives: " "One Time, One Place" 1972 (no label gc-72105) [silkscreened cover; lyric insert with photos] [2] Local communal hippiefolk artefact with a couple of really good psychy tracks and the rest passable singer/songwriter sounds. In general the guitar-based songs are good, while the piano tracks drag the album down. On level with the similar-sounding Big Lost Rainbow. Has the entire commune joining in on my favorite track which mixes 1970s "aware" lyrics with raga acoustic and flute, like a politically correct Manson Family. --- Cool counterculture artifact from well-meaning hippies who spent two years perfecting their craft. Most collectors lament that there’s too much piano here but even the overlong ballads are good. This is a great album. The intelligent lyrics are foul-mouthed in a wholly appealing way, and the mellow music is very well-played. Nice little guitar parts come when you least expect them, giving energy to the quieter songs, and the vocals are confident in a laid-back way. [AM] ". The Jacket is VG+++ with some very light corner stains. Insert is mint. Vinyl and labels are NM! Winner to add $6.50 for insured priority mail shipping in the USA or $12 to countries listed. Payment due within 7 days of auction's ending.
