Kathy Smith - 2 (1971)



KS was part of the California 60s folkie scene. She's supposed to have coined the phrase "love generation." She appeared at the IOW Festival in 1970.
She recorded a couple of albums for Ritchie Havens' short-lived Stormy Forest label. The first was
re-issued in 2007, but this one has never been released on CD, so is perforce a vinyl rip.
An interesting listen, from the Joni Mitchell/Judy Collins school.


Tracklist:
1.Lady Of Lavender
2.It's Taking So Long
3.Rock & Roll Star
4.Willie
5.Fly Off With The Wind
6.Seven Virgins
7.For Emile
8.Travel In A Circle
9.Blessed Be The People


Personnel:
Don Alias ; Drums & Percusssion
Warren Bernhardt ; Keyboads
Gerry Germont ; Bass
Jan Hammer ; Keyboads
Leslie Jones ; Guitar
Bill La Vorgna ; Drums & Percusssion

I remember I had a copy of this a several years ago, some DJ/producer bought it off me, I think because it had a drum break on it he wanted.

(I wondered too about Tony Levin.)
