Search - William R. Strickland :: Is Only the Name

Digitally remastered edition of this 1969 album. Released in both the UK and USA on Decca's Deram label, most music observers became aware of William Strickland by his inclusion on the classic 1969 sampler album Wowie Zowie: The World Of Progressive Music. Strickland's album was an introspective and dark work that utilized avant garde synthesizer sounds on 'Computer Lover' and orchestrated arrangements to make for an interesting fusion of poetry, Folk music and the experimental. Once describing himself as "a cross between Willie Nelson and Pink Floyd", an American newspaper once referred to him as "A kinky cross between Mark Twain and Lenny Bruce". Esoteric. 2009.
