In California [LP]

Compton & Batteau's In California is a cult 1970 folk-rock record from the duo of Dave Compton and Robin Batteau, a sun-dappled song cycle threaded together with spoken narrations. Songs like "Laughter Turns to Blue," "Silk on Steel," "Homesick Kid" and the closing "California" mix gentle harmonies, strings and acoustic guitar into something wistful and quietly psychedelic.

Earth Recordings reissues the album as a UK import pressing on vinyl.
