David McWilliams
Sings Songs by David McWilliams (1967)
Working for the Government (1987)

From Belfast, Ireland, folk-rock/pop singer/songwriter David McWilliams recorded several albums in the late '60s in a style similar to Donovan. Here, too, was a youthful but slightly ragged-looking troubadour, obviously influenced by Bob Dylan, whose songs were also dressed up with Baroque orchestration. McWilliams' songs and singing, however, were milder than those of his Scottish counterpart, and as a vocalist and composer he didn't have nearly as much originality or personality. Problematically, the similarities to Donovan made unfavorable comparisons unavoidable. The records aren't bad, but are rather derivative and forgettable, though his best-known single, "Days of Pearly Spencer," was his best song, with a dark edge, swirling violins, and an effective dab of psychedelia in the megaphone-distorted vocals on the song's chorus.

McWilliams made his first single in 1966, and was lifted to a higher profile throughout the U.K. by Phil Solomon, an influential Irish manager who had worked with Them and the Bachelors. In 1967 McWilliams managed to record three albums -- quite a prolific rate for an artist who wasn't a star -- which tickled the lower regions of the British album charts, with the second, Vol. 2, almost making the Top 20. These albums were produced and arranged by Mike Leander, who had already proven his facility for mixing pop/rock with classical-influenced orchestration on records by Marianne Faithfull. "Days of Pearly Spencer" got a lot of airplay on British radio when it was released at the end of 1967, and is well remembered by listeners of the time, but somehow did not make it onto the U.K. charts, although it was a big hit in several European countries.

McWilliams continued to record through the 1970s, without breaking
through to wide success. A compilation drawn from his first three albums, The Days of David McWilliams, was issued by RPM in 2001. It's his earliest work that's most remembered (if at all), particularly "The Days of Pearly Spencer," which was covered for a British hit by Marc Almond in the early '90s. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

Tamarack

Frobisher Bay (1992)



From its Ontario base, Tamarack has been exploring Canada's history through song for more than 15 years. This popular trio travels the length and breadth of their northern land, singing about the fishermen and farmers, whalers and wilderness guides, trappers and tourists, immigrants and natives, and passing Americans. Tamarack is currently made up of founding member James Gordon and Alex Sinclair, plus Molly Kurvink. Lots of good songs and some unusual views of the history of North America. One of Canada's cultural icons.

Tamarack's Frobisher Bay is a "down north" musical journey that is alternately ethereal and passion-drenched, opening on a haunting, reflective note with "Days of Sun and Wind" before the trio sound manifests itself in a more traditional mode, full force, on the rousing "Oh, Klondike." The sound is somewhere between Peter, Paul & Mary, the Seekers, and Stan Rogers, weighted more toward the latter thematically — the CD is filled with beautiful moments, but perhaps the best of them all is the title track, done a cappella and reminiscent of A.L. Lloyd's best work at its most historically penetrating.

Tracks:
01 - Days of Sun and Wind
02 - Oh, Klondike
03 - The Hangman's Eyes
04 - Frobisher Bay
05 - Loyal She Remains
06 - The Vacuum Song
07 - Charlie Fox

my name is Salvador Cresta, and i´m from Argentina... I took your mail from your blog "Time Has Told Me"... I make music in my bedroom, whit toys and a guitar... I don´t have money to send packages to other countries, so i have make a "Virtual Package" to share my music whit other people... In the package i have put two little movies to introducing myself, and an album called: "Araña Vegetal Al Viento"... I have upload the package to this storage site:

DL


And here i put some links so you can read something about my music...

psychedelic Folk review:
Salvador Cresta made this new bedroom recording of half spoken half sung poetic miniatures with multi-layers of voices, acoustic guitars, a couple additional child-playful sounds on keyboards and toys, and a tiny bit more serious organ/keyboard and additional flutes (especially beautiful on “raro versio raro despliega un par de alas quemantes”). The whole recording is a real pleasure to hear. I can sense the bedroom with a wide open door to a terrace, sun coming in, birds whistling, dogs barking far away. Very nice ! Hope this will find an official release soon.

Well, it´s a strange message, but it´s the only way i have to share what i do...

Regards...

Salvador.


Thanks Salvador,
Very impressive act!

Hi. First of all congrats for your great blog. I'm a long time follower of Time Has Told Me.
I have recently created two blogs of my own:

One of them it's for songs only: CANCIONES ATOMICAS
The other one it's for complete records: VENTANA CIRCULAR

I suppose some of your bloggers may be interested in some of my postings and sure many of mines will be interested in yours (I've already addressed some to Time Has Told Me in my Isaac Guillory posting)

So, I'm proposing we exchange our mutual links in our blogs so that more people may benefit of our work.


Thanks & best regards!

Mossy Davidson - North Wind Calling (1977)





















jeremy said...
Here's a double lp by Mairiis "Mossy" Davidson on the small label "north woods". This was recorded in Anchorage, Alaska and Seattle, Washington. This is a nice rural femme folk lp with a really mellow vibe to it. Mossy's delicate vocals and acoustic playing are accompanied by recorders, the homestead flute, piano and steel guitar. From the liner notes: "For me Mossy is incomparable. She is herself, unique- like the songs on this album, which have a special way of touching people. These songs are true Alaskan folk music, a very personal expression of the joys and dreams, beauty and solitude of living on the last frontier- songs of love for the North Country, of pioneers and fishermen, wild places and changing times.

Om Shanti - We Are Home (1977)

Canonical said:

In life we have all been moving
Towards love as our centre blooming
Let's dance to that loving feeling
Let's dance with our hearts revealing


Those four phrases circulate the back-side of the cover on this private spiritual folk album headed by Oman Deal and Shanti Ess Rae, released in 1977 on the Solace Records label. There are 6 members of the band included on the back (including Oman and Shanti), with most of the extras covering the staple musical instruments (guitar, vocals, and bass) while Oman and Shanti use a wide variety of instruments (marimba, glockenspiel, vibraphone, autoharp, and accordion). Through this they deliver a very nice and consistent folk sound, psychedelic not in music but in "vibe".

There are two consistent vocalists which I am going to assume are Om and Shanti, and while sometimes over bearing, I think Shanti has an especially nice voice. My one qualm with this album is that the songs that aren't good are simply mediocre. They're not awful, just not as great as the 3-4 really good songs. In particular, there is one 11-minute "Winter Solstice" ballad which is very exceptional.

Happy and Artie Traum

Happy and Artie Traum (1969)





















Eric Kaz:
Happy and Artie Traum have been my friends since 1964. We all grew up in New York City which was the center of a folk music revival in the 1960's and we all learned the same songs and the same guitar styles from the same records and concerts that influenced us for the rest of our lives. These people included the great southern bluesmen like Son House and Skip James, folk singers like Woody Guthrie and Country artists like Bill Monroe. Artie soon became one of the best guitarists around. He work a lot in the '60s playing guitar for popular folk singers in clubs and concerts in Greenwich Village and many times he would ask me to accompany them on harmonica.
 In the mid 60's many folk singers started to write songs and add drums and bass to their music and so did we. Happy and Artie started their own folk-rock band and asked me to join and it was called The Children of Paradise. We wrote our own songs and played electric guitars. The band made one record which was not a commercial success and we broke up. Happy and Artie went on to make a record of their own in Nashville, which I played on. By then, we were all living in Woodstock, New York which became home to an exciting music community which included Van Morrison, The Band, Dylan and many, many others. From Woodstock, the brothers continued to write and record and tour - and still do.
 I always thought that the songs Artie wrote were as interesting and unique as Paul Simon’s work, for example. When Happy and Artie sing together, their vocal harmonies and the "blend" of their voices are as good as it gets, like the Everly Brothers. Happy has earned his place in folk music history by working with folk music icons like Pete Seeger and Artie has extended his guitar virtuosity on many solo projects recently. But their work on this CD reminds me of the best folk and folk-blues and traditional material that Happy and Artie have always adapted so successfully for as long as I have known them.
