This is an album of private press original music by New Mexico male/female trio Michael Sullivan, Judy Wilcox, and Dennis Wilcox, from 1973. Folky psychedelic rock with lush male-female harmonies. Bright and brilliantly textured acoustic guitar work throughout. Rocks at times, goes into hillbilly country territory and honest folk at others, with an acid influence that is pervasive yet subtle. Serious collectors have been swooning over this album for years, and with good reason. This is pure magic. Flawlessly remastered from the original master tapes by the album's producer, Emitt Brooks. Reviews from Rate Your Music: "Heaped with praise in The Acid Archives. They were totally right. A rare vanity/private press facemelter with NO covers!" "Interesting record, for a few reasons. Total guru-spiritual yogi trip as soft as they come, barefoot, ethereal voices creeping in the edges of your hair, steel guitar used like a thin ray of sunshine gleaming on a cymbal, light splashing around the room. Seemingly bogus seeker lyrics surprise and delight with clichés run backwards and through a crystal pool. It works somehow, that when you think you know what you should hear, you've only heard a shadow of it really, and the truth is clearly ahead in something entirely new and unknown... like breathing air, and forgetting you are doing so. 'Snow On A Mountain' truly is a stunning track, and a desert island pick for the genre -- magical, dark, mid-winter ennui from the depths of the reclusive preoccupied 1970s."
