Children of One - Children of One

1969 USA

May 27, 2007

Not really a rock album, but as psychedelic as any album I’ve come across. Meditative, Eastern influenced acoustic jazz with flute, female voice, sitar, hand percussion, cello, piano and other instruments. Otherworldly and deeply peaceful. Has THAT vibe that reeks of the real underground, a certain something that is found more frequently in the Krautrock genre (the atmosphere of Dom’s “Edge of Time” comes to mind in parts – though musically quite different). A wonderful album that would certainly benefit from a masters tape CD reissue. Children of One were from one of the many hippy communes that existed in upstate New York during that time.
