So Milkwood Tapestry was actually a New York City based duo consisting of singer/guitarist Ronald Antonelli and singer/percussionist Joseph Ransohoff. The pair shared a background in music. Antonelli had studied classical guitar and cello and was teaching music. Ransohoff was studying law while also studying voice and recorder. The pair met through an ad Ransohoff placed in New York's Village Voice looking for a songwriter/composer to collaborate with. The pair clicked and began writing material together, splitting their time between New York City and Antonelli's home in Poughkeepsie. Antonelli eventually relocated to NYC and the pair began working on the NYC club circuit.
Their big break came when they were spotted by Donovan's manager who helped them audition and sign with Len Levy's Metromedia Records. Signed to a contract the pair went into New York's Record Plant with Manny Kellem producing. So first let me say I've seldom heard an album that is as musically diverse as 1969's "Milkwood Tapestry". Perhaps I'm being overly generous and should just say the results were outright schizophrenic.
I happened to stumble across something Antonelli had written online following the album's 2001 re-release:
"Having creates this album with my old partner John Ransohoff, it is good to know that history has a way of resurfacing under the most enjoyable and auspicious of circumstances. I'm still in the music business after all these years, and I'm glad to know that I'm part of music history with the re-release of "Milkwood Tapestry." The music is still very powerful and I can hear how Joe and I set a tones for an era. The guitar work is unique in many respects in that I was using electronic equipment that was quite new at the time. The studio effects wee extremely original and set a standard for recording technique. A lot of younger musicians can learn a thing or two with this recording, and younger listeners of music who would like to touch base with the history of acid rock should give this a listening to."
