Search - Earth Opera :: Earth Opera / Great American Eagle Tragedy

Digitally Remastered Edition of Two Classic LPs Combined in a Deluxe Double CD Package. Earth Opera's Self-titled Debut LP features a Heady Brew of Pop, Rock, Folk, Jazz and Classical Elements in Involved Arrangements that Suited Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist Peter Rowan's Songs. They Are Noted for their Complicated Structures and Highly Poetic and Psychedelic Lyrics. The Debut Album Reflects the Eclectic, Ambitious Pop Styles of the Flower Power/Sgt. Pepper-era of 1967. The Follow-up, "The Great American Eagle Tragedy", Took Into Consideration the Changed Musical Climate of 1968, with More Stripped Down Arrangements and Hard Rocking with Country-rock Beginning to Make Inroads, Quite Different from It's Predecessor. The Country-rock Opener "Home to You," (Featuring the Pedal Steel Guitar of Guest Bill Keith) was a Road Song in Subject Matter and Feel, "Mad Lydia's Waltz," the Second Track, was More Rooted in Stringed Instruments and Steady Beats.
