EDIT: "Orphan also had long association with Tom Rush and went on the road with him during the seventies."
Mission Statement: to do very little, for very few, for not very long. Disappointing the easily pleased since 1819. Not as good as it used to be from Day One. History is Bunk - PT Barnum. Artificially Intelligent before it was fashionable. Fat camp for the mind! Nothing lasts, but nothing is lost. The Shock of the Old! Often bettered, never imitated.

I'll have a link please Farquhar.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly shall, Stanley, and with pleasure. Check back in a few hours.
DeleteYou could play "Six Degrees of Eric Lilljequist" (Orphan's main singer songwriter). I think, I might have seen Orphan open for Jesse Colin Young.
ReplyDeleteWould really like to hear these guys.
PS Nice job on Ron Burgundy.
I saw them several times with Jonathan Edwards back in the '70s (boy, just saying that makes me feel old). All very enjoyable albums if nothing earth-shattering.
ReplyDeleteStill have the first 2 on vinyl. Full info on them and their (Dab-there) 6 degrees at:

I dunno, Farq, could the Toluene in the model car cement be altering your perceptions?
ReplyDeleteMotherless children
ReplyDeleteCheers squire!
ReplyDeleteThese are really sweet albums, but the first two have totally unrepresentative covers. Not only unrepresentative, but shit. You'd think the first was an acoustic folk duo, the second heavy blues rock.
ReplyDeleteThis is pure country rock. Great vocals, playing, songs.
Listening to Orphan while I type this and you're right on both counts: Really nice music - and those covers...I mean, what's with the typeface of the second album, who do these guys think they are, Black Sabbath?!
