Reduced price, last copies. Exclusive liner notes by
Dr. John
. Published in 1970 on the small imprint Tiffany Records, the self-titled debut album by
Brethren
still deliver the goods half a century upon its original release. Way long before the genre Americana was certified, even before the "blue eyed soul mania" arose, this talented combo pave the way for an intense songwriting. Girl group
The Blossoms
was on board for several tracks on backing vocals, while the almighty Dr. John played keyboards as a guest and wrote some intense liner notes. Folk rock mixed with some country and a dash of gospel, that was the original essence of the album, a serious runner up in the
Little Feat
/
Allman Bros
category. But if you look further this band could have been easily described as the US answer to
Steve Winwood
's
Traffic
. "Midnight Train" has a southern rock feel while the vocals and composition on "Don't Talk Now" could pass as a tune from
The Band
. "I've Been Provided For" would fit in at a church revival while bluesy numbers such as "Outside Love" and "Success Brand Oil" have an uncanny jazz rocking instrumental feel. Fully remastered and licensed. 180 gram vinyl; edition of 500.
