Comprised of songs written a year earlier while Merrell and violin player Mary Lee were living in the jungle of Maui, this is a brilliant set of spiritual folk-rock and 70s orchestrated SSW light-pop The album was recorded at various Hollywood studios, initially sponsored by a producer from George Harrison’s Dark Horse label. In fact Harrison was so impressed with Merrell’s songs that he expressed interest in playing slide guitar on “Our Way To Hana”. Sadly, due to internal problems, Dark Horse backed off and Merrell found himself without a label to release the album. Finally, a couple of friends from Maui released it on the small Maui Music label. On the recordings, Merrell and Mary Lee were joined by several studio musicians, among them, drummer Bill Berg, who had played on Bob Dylan’s “Blood On The Tracks”. First ever vinyl reissue with tracks restored to their original running order and original artwork. Insert with in-depth liner notes by Jeremy Cargill (Ugly Things, Got Kinda Lost), presenting the most complete written story about Merrell’s musical career. Master tape sound. “… It stands as a lost classic in Fankhauser’s prolific catalog of work.” – Jeremy Cargill (Ugly Things, Got Kinda Lost) “…Great melodic ‘70s psych. Merrell is joined by female violinist Mary Lee; she also was part of the earlier MU scene and lived with Merrell in a Maui jungle hut…” – – Patrick Lundborg (Acid Archives) “A classic of cosmic folk music” – Forced exposure Artist Merrell Fankhauser Genre Folk , Psychedelia / Garage Label Out-sider Music Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Lovely Lady I Saw Your Photograph We Were All Free On Our Way To Hana Make A Joyful Noise Garden In The Rain Waterfall La La Does The Boo Ru Sail It Over The Ocean Love Is All There Is The Source Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Folk View Product Quick View Josienne Clarke & Ben Walker Seedlings All (Indies Only) Folk | Rough Trade | 1LP, Includes CD, Includes Download Code Released 21st March 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Josienne Clarke & Ben Walker Seedlings All (Indies Only) £19.00 Genre: Folk Label: Rough Trade SKU: RTRADLPX898 Formats: 1LP, Includes CD, Includes Download Code Released Date: 21st March 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Yorkston / Thorne / Khan Everything Sacred Folk | Domino | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 15th January 2016 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Yorkston / Thorne / Khan Everything Sacred £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Domino SKU: WIGLP367 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 15th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Judee Sill Live In London Folk | Troubadour | 1LP Released 16th February 2015 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Judee Sill Live In London £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Troubadour SKU: TRBLP001 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Carwyn Ellis Ni A Nhw Folk | Bubblewrap Records | 1LP Released 15th December 2023 £24.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Carwyn Ellis Ni A Nhw £24.00 Genre: Folk Label: Bubblewrap Records SKU: BWR076 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 15th December 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Freschard & Stanley Brinks Iron Eye Folk | Fika Recordings | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 13th October 2023 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Freschard & Stanley Brinks Iron Eye £21.00 Genre: Folk Label: Fika Recordings SKU: FIKA097LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 13th October 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nearly New View Product Quick View Bisiker & Romanov Bisiker & Romanov Folk | Fellside | 1LP Released 13th June 2014 £5.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Bisiker & Romanov Bisiker & Romanov £5.00 Genre: Folk Label: Fellside SKU: NN69822 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 13th June 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Alasdair Roberts & Robin Robertson Hirta Songs Folk | Stone Tape Recordings | 1LP Released 11th November 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alasdair Roberts & Robin Robertson Hirta Songs £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Stone Tape Recordings SKU: STR006LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 11th November 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Tim Vantol If We Go Down We Will Go Together Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Uncle M | 1LP Released 6th April 2015 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Tim Vantol If We Go Down We Will Go Together £17.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Uncle M SKU: UMLP20 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th April 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lau Race The Loser / Ghosts EP Folk | Diverse Records | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released 1st October 2012 £29.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Lau Race The Loser / Ghosts EP £29.00 Genre: Folk Label: Diverse Records SKU: DIV042DLP Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released Date: 1st October 2012 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Linda Thompson Won’t Be Long Now Folk | Topic Records | 180g, 1LP Released 18th November 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Linda Thompson Won’t Be Long Now £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Topic Records SKU: 12TS822 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 18th November 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Folk Start again
