Title: Music that should have been heard a long time ago.
Product review: This is a treat for anyone who digs the late '60s psychedelic folk-rock sound. Penny Arkade captured the essence of that sound and this disc is the first chance for many people to hear them. While some of the tracks aren't quite as good as others, they're all surprisingly listenable and a couple really stand out. "Lights of Dawn", for example, should have been on the radio. "Country Girl" is another one I particularly like, and it's here that you can really feel the folk-country crossover influence of Mike Nesmith.Anyone with a fondness for Byrds/Donovan/etc. (and the later Nesmith-influenced Monkees songs) should give this disc a try. It's a shame the world never knew of the potential this group had.
