Search - Pozo Seco :: Shades of Time

A little bit folk, a little bit country and a little bit rock with a healthy dollop of sunshine pop, the Pozo Seco Singers never hit it big despite the fact that they launched the career of country superstar Don Williams but their recordings remain highly coveted by collectors of all three styles. This album, released in 1968, featured a new, slimmed down version of the group and the group name, as the departure of Lofton Klein spurred the remaining duo of Williams and Susan Taylor (a.k.a. Taylor Pie) to drop the "Singers" from their moniker and to move in a more topical, rock-oriented direction. And, guided by the superstar producing team of Elliot Mazer (Neil Young, Janis Joplin) and Bob Johnston (Bob Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel), the duo succeeded in making a genuine cult classic, one that's somehow eluded CD reissue until now. We ve added no less than 11 single sides (nine mono, two stereo) to the original stereo version of this album, all remastered by Vic Anesini at Battery Studios, while Tom Pickles' notes feature fresh quotes from Taylor Pie. The harmonies between Williams and Taylor are truly sublime they're one of the truly great, unsung male-female combos in '60s pop.
