SAFE IN MY GARDEN – American Pop in the Shadows
1967-1972
CDTOP 1667/ XXQLP2 162
In the world of late 60s harmony pop, pacifism was a subtext. Outside the studio, America seemed to be imploding, and so the soft rockers created melancholic songs of escape and loss, dreamscapes in a minor key. With woodwinds, brass, orchestration and complex vocal harmonies, they gently, beautifully, sounded the alarm.
