Description

Time to downsize to make way for other music, I will be listing a number of my treasured compact discs and records ranging from psych/prog to soul to folk to blues and everything in between, over the coming months.
If you like this record there is a good chance others I am selling may tickle your fancy, so please feel free to have a look. I hope they find their way into the hands of people who will love them as much as I have over the years.

Original Australian 1972 Image Australian Stereo pressing ILP -721.
Honk originally came together in 1970 featuring the talents of drummer Tris Imboden, bass player Don Whaley, and keyboardist Steve Wood. Undergoing a steady stream of personnel changes the band became popular on the Southern California dance, college (and high school), and club circuit. By 1972 the line-up had expanded to a sextet with the addition of sax player Craig Buhler, singer/guitarist Beth Fichet, and lead guitarist Richard Stekol. The same year MacGillivray hired the band to provide incidental music for a surf film he'd produced with partner Freeman.
Released by the small Hollywood-based Granite label, 1972's "The Original Sound Track from Five Summer Stories" is a ripper. This album still sounds as fresh and vibrant today as it did back in the 1970s. It may be a movie soundtrack but it stands alone as a master work with or without the movie. Picking out the best track is difficult but "High In the Middle" probably wins by a nose. Some of the best steel guitar playing ever committed to record can be heard on "Bears Country", a stunning instrumental track which evokes lazy summer days at the beach. "The Blue Of Your Backdrop", "Don't Let Your Goodbye Stand", "Pipeline Sequence" the list goes on. It is truly an aural treat and a fine example of the west coast sound in its earliest and purest form. Do yourself a favor and buy this album. It is one of rock music's last undiscovered gems.
Super rare Australian Surfing Soundtrack LP.
