WENDY & BONNIE--Genesis--SS LP

Click to view supersized image

ACCLAIMED factory sealed album by WENDY & BONNIE entitled "Genesis".

"Wendy & Bonnie's only album is a nice, if not truly necessary, relic of the late 1960s. It's the sort of unconventional yet accessible project that might have had trouble finding its way into release in any other era, but managed to at least get issued, even if it was largely undiscovered until cult listeners unearthed it decades later. The sisters' harmonies have the sweet-sour major-minor blend typical of many San Francisco rock artists of the time, yet with a more homespun, intimate flavor than those of many a heavily produced band. Their songs have the sort of slightly askew lyrics that, again, were prevalent in their time and place, glowing with anticipation of an era of greater love and less social constraints, and also imbued with a certain innocent naïveté. ("The Paisley Window Pane" is a particularly priceless song title.) There are sometimes jazzier accents to their singing and chord progressions than there were in most psychedelic or harmony pop/rock groups; "The Paisley Window Pane" sounds like it might have absorbed lessons from Jose Feliciano's cover of "Light My Fire."..." - Richie Unterberger

Released on Skye Records (SK-1006D) in 1969. It is FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, STILL SEALED WITH ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK and assumed mint. The cover has light shelf wear on the corner and saw-cut on the left edge. Actual item pictured. NO RESERVE on this FOLK-ROCK classic.

Buyer pays $3.50 USPS Media Mail for USA shipping (insurance and/or international extra). Seller will combine shipping.
