In 1967 and 1968, Hearts and Flowers stood at the intersection between folk, country, and rock. The band recorded two albums, Now Is the Time for Hearts and Flowers in 1967 and Of Horses, Kids and Forgotten Women in 1968, and then disappeared. The Complete Hearts and Flowers collects both of these albums and enough extras (13 songs) for another album. In 2003, over 30 years after these albums were recorded, it will surprise many listeners -- who've never heard of the group -- how well Hearts and Flowers' eclectic blend of California folk/country/rock has held up. Like the Dillards and the Byrds, one quickly notices the band's high-flown harmony and mixture of acoustic and electric instruments. While cuts like "Save Some Time" and Donovan's "Try for the Sun" show their folk revival roots, "Rain, Rain" takes a psychedelic turn and "The View From Ward 3" adds a touch of country. The straight production of the early material expands to tasteful string arrangements on the second album. This leads to a dreamy take on "Second-Hand Sundown Queen" and trippy pop fare like "She Sang Hymns out of Tune." The extra material comes from several scattered sessions, and by and large delves more deeply into country-rock. These bonus tracks hold up well to the officially released material, sounding a lot like a lost album. The Complete Hearts and Flowers offers a pleasing musical time capsule to the fertile L.A. scene in the late '60s. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.

THE DIRTCHAMBER SESSIONS VOLUME ONE is a continuous in-the-mix recording compiled and mixed by Liam Howlett.
As though he wasn't the feature player on each of the three Prodigy albums preceding it, The Dirtchamber Sessions presents Liam Howlett in a solo setting. But here, instead of showing off his production wizardry, his long history as a DJ and mixing abilities are on display. They're proved more than up to the task, as Howlett plays mix and match with over 50 records from his hip-hop and funk past. While the Chemical Brothers' mix album (released the year before) showcased the duo digging deep in their record crates for a set of soul ...

If you seek an artist who combines the songwriting skills of Harry Nilsson and the skewed, old-timey outlook of Van Dyke Parks with the arrangement smarts of Brian Wilson and the imaginative electronic sweep of classic Radiohead, look no further. The California musician and songwriter Richard Swift began issuing CDs and retro-sounding singles in the early 2000s, and this double CD collects his first and second albums. His captivating 2002 debut, WALKING WITHOUT EFFORT, finds Swift flexing his creative muscles on a collection of sun-dappled, vintage-sounding folk-pop, and "Foreward," the magical instrumental introduction to 2004's THE NOVELIST, is the gateway to a perfectly realized set, whose mix of sharp songwriting and contemporary electronica is coated with a patina of sepia-tinged nostalgia.
Beginning with an arc of distant, echo-laden strings and a chorus of voices that sound as if they escaped from the buried and decaying reels of an aborted Disney film, Richard Swift's Secretly Canadian debut paints a world out of time from the very first note. The West Coast singer/songwriter has no qualms about resurrecting Franks Wild Years-era Tom Waits and filtering it through the "new ...
