[1969] Tomorrow Come Someday - Someone Like You

listen to the song:


Wow! Many thanks to bilbo1742 for this great entry into one of his wunderful lists on rym. Soft
female voice, sounds a bit like Vashti Bunyan. In this track I can enjoy the feeling I sometimes get by
listening to "Going Up The Country", the kind of singing and the playful flute, ... A warm summers
day, and everything is simply fine... The album, where this song is taken from was released in 1969
and was previously to it's reissue totally unknown to me and alot of you too, I think...


The self titled LP "Tomorrow Come Someday "

[1970] Linda Perhacs - Chimacum Rain

listen to the song:


In 1970 Linda Perhacs created a wunderful album called "Parallelograms".
'Chimacum Rain' is only one of many awesome tunes on this LP. Soft psychedelia &
Acid Folk tingles along accompanied by trippy femal vocals and soft guitarplay. Enjoy!

[1969] Pentangle - Light Flight

listen to the song:


A wonderful british folk tune with gentle female vocals, that add that special something to this tune. Also the bassline is very noteable!

Lyrics:

Let's get away, you say, find a better place,
Miles and miles away from the city's race,
Look around for someone lying in the sunshine
Marking time, hear the sighs, close your eyes...

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...

Stepping from cloud to cloud passing years of light
Visit the frosty stars in the backward flight
Star becomes a vision, never mind the meaning,
Hidden there, moving fast, it won't last...

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...

Time passes all too soon, how it rushes by,
Now a thousand moons are about to die
No time to reflect on what the time was spent on,
Nothing left, far away, dreamers fade

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...
Strange visions pass me by, winging sweetly close inside [*]
O-ver the wa-ter, ah....

Swirling, the waters rise up above my head.
Gone are the curling mists how they all have fled.
Look, the door is open, step into the space
Provided there

Da do da, da, do da...
Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...
