Gettin' a bit countrified on a lazy Sunday

Well, it's another lazy Sunday 'round here and I decided to post some hippie country and lighter sounds for your listening pleasure. Also, down at the bottom of the page I have posted links from files I posted at other sites, and since you never know what may happen, I decided to put them here too!


Here's the 1974 LP by NRPS. It was released on Columbia 32450.
This was by request from Groovy Fab forum.

This is some Kraut-country-rock I guess. It's not really, but it does have some definite southern influences running through it's proggy-bluesy tones. Great album too. Released in Germany on Bellaphon (298 09117) back in the hazy daze of 1971, its album No. 2 by Kin Ping Meh.

I found the back cover of a boot of this radio show recorded 9-30-71 in Columbia Studios live. It's the great Poco and it's extremely nice sound quality!

And finally for today (unless I get bored later) here is an album that doesn't quite fit the theme, but I uploaded it yesterday and forgot to post it. So here is Nucleus' outstanding prog opus Solar Plexus. Released in 1971 on the highly collectible Vertigo label (6360-039).

I tried the Poco, too, and got the same error!

I'm using stuffit 8 and get this error:

Engine error: format error

Is the problem on my end.

I can open Rapidshare .rar's from Hans' site and others.

How can I join the party?

I need sweet sounds!

Thanks again!

HI, just discovered your blog and it's simply GREAT! thanks for the Spooky Tooth links, sadly the LAST PUFF one was deleted, by some mysterious force of the nature, who knows? I immensely appreciate the YOU BROKE MY HEART SO...ONE. I have this album (vinyl). This band had two fantastic vocalists (Mike Harrison and Gary Wright). Just want to say that my vinyl album has the same cover of the CD edition ( ando not the indicated as the original cover), as someone wrote in the file. Thanks and a gain, great job!
