CLEAN LIVING - SELF TITLE FIRST (USA '72 COUNTRY ROCK)



Clean Living "Clean Living" (Vanguard Records, 1972) (LP)

(Produced by Maynard Soloman & Jeff Zaraya)

This Boston-based folk-rock band came out of an earlier, harder-edged psychedelic group, opting in the early 'Seventies to go for a mellower, more humor-filled sound, including a few tracks such as their big hit, "In Heaven There Is No Beer," which were just waiting for a little airtime on The Dr. Demento Show, or any number of late-night free-form radio shows. The group's shofting membership included steel player Paul Lambert, rhythm guitarist Robert "Tex" LaMountain, bassist Frank Shaw, and singer/guitarists Norman Schell and Rick Tiven, They had a playful vibe, with plenty of good-natured, post-jug band eclecticism, in the same general impish wheelhouse as, say, The Holy Modal Rounders, though perhaps a little less interested in looking "weird" for the sake of being weird. Definitely worth a spin... (Also of interest: Tex Lamountain had a second (or third?) act in the late 'Seventies as an earnest coffeehouse folkie, most notably as a politically conscious, anti-nuclear eco-troubadour singing songs about Karen Silkwood, power plant meltdowns, unicorns and gardening. But it all starts here with the absence of alcohol in the promised land...)

BUTTERFIELD STAGE LINE - SELF TITLE (USA '74 COUNTRY) IN DEMAND

 Butterfield Stage Line "Butterfield Stage Line" (Crimson Records, 1974) (LP)

(Produced by Henry M. Quinn & Maynard Smith)

This trio from Downey, California played a mix of oldies and twang, including a hefty dose of original material credited to all three musicians, Buddy Banks (drums), Maynard Smith (lead guitar), and Coy Williams on bass. They took their name from a historic though short-lived stagecoach line that ran on a southern route from Saint Louis to San Francisco (with stops in Los Angeles, of course...) between 1858-61. The trio also released several singles, also on the Crimson label; other than this handful of records, I couldn't find anything else out about these guys...

ERIC ANDERSEN - BLUE RIVER (USA '72 COUNTRY FOLK)

 Singer-songwriter Eric Andersen was always one of my favorite of the early Greenwich Village folkies, with his distinctive, classically pretty-sounding vocals and a romantic vision that -- to my ears at least -- helped elevate him from the confines of the either-Dylan-or-Butcher-Holler "authenticity" pigeonholes of the genre. Like many of his contemporaries -- Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Tom Paxton -- by the end of the '60s, Andersen found himself pushing against the boundaries of the folk scene and several times he went to Nashville to add a more countrified tone to his work.
