Barbara & Ernie - Prelude To... (1971)
Barbara & Ernie - Prelude To... (1971)
"This is a really odd album, beginning with the cover
photo, which shows a tall, sexy black woman and a
short fat stoned-looking hippie (somewhat
reminiscient of Bunky & Jake if Jake went off the
deep end.) The music is a mix of soul, rock and
dreamy folk. Some of it is truly excellent, and the
styles mix surprisingly well. "Listen To Your Heart"
is a classic, the kind of thing that blows away most
"Hippie Goddess" type psych/folk. This is an album
that's too weird for soul fans, too R&B for folk fans
and too 70s for psych fans. In short, it's unique.
And it's wonderful."
