MONTEVALE - figure and ground LP Soundtrack t Sing" in 1957

t Sing" in 1957

Foregrounded by the hyper-bare instrumentation (minimal acoustic guitar)

Let It All In invokes nature as a backdrop for exploring humanity's relationship to time

” “Watchin' the Show” and “The Portland Water” that come off for the most part better than later releases of these songs

There are strings-lovely charts that do so much more than just trace chord changes up and down the neck
