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 Nearly New View Product Quick View Marilyn Middleton-Pollock Nobody Knows You Folk | Fellside Recordings | 1LP Released 12th August 2014 £5.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Marilyn Middleton-Pollock Nobody Knows You £5.00 Genre: Folk Label: Fellside Recordings SKU: NN71077 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 12th August 2014 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Bellowhead Broadside Folk | Navigator | 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released 12th October 2012 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bellowhead Broadside £16.00 Genre: Folk Label: Navigator SKU: NAVIGATOR073LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 12th October 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nigel Mazlyn Jones Ship to Shore Folk | Sommor | 1LP Released 20th September 2013 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nigel Mazlyn Jones Ship to Shore £22.00 Genre: Folk Label: Sommor SKU: SOMM013 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th September 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Martyn London Conversation Folk | Proper Records | 180g, 1LP Released 14th July 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Martyn London Conversation £25.00 Genre: Folk Label: Proper Records SKU: UMCLP051 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th July 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rose Elinor Dougall A New Illusion – Indies Only Folk | Vermilion | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 5th April 2019 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rose Elinor Dougall A New Illusion – Indies Only £20.00 Genre: Folk Label: Vermilion SKU: VERMLP8X Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 5th April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Josiah Johnson Every Feeling On A Loop Folk | Anti | 1LP Released 4th September 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Josiah Johnson Every Feeling On A Loop £22.00 Genre: Folk Label: Anti SKU: 277371 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 4th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kristin Thora Haraldsdottir Solo Acoustic Vol. 14 Folk | VDSQ | 1LP Released 2nd September 2016 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kristin Thora Haraldsdottir Solo Acoustic Vol. 14 £27.00 Genre: Folk Label: VDSQ SKU: VDSQ018 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 2nd September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Martin Green Flit Folk | Reveal | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 7th October 2016 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Martin Green Flit £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Reveal SKU: REVEAL062LPX Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 7th October 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Peter Walker Second Poem To Karmela Or Gypsies Are Important Folk | Light In The Attic | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 24th February 2014 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Peter Walker Second Poem To Karmela Or Gypsies Are Important £19.00 Genre: Folk Label: Light In The Attic SKU: LITA113LP Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 24th February 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Renbourn Live In Kyoto 1978 Folk | Drag City | 1LP Released 15th June 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders John Renbourn Live In Kyoto 1978 £19.00 Genre: Folk Label: Drag City SKU: DC713 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 15th June 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Folk Start again
