Carla Olson: Have Harmony, Will Travel 2

Carla Olson sounds like she was weaned on the Byrds on this jingle jangled morning of material that even includes a guest appearance by Gene Clark. The core team of Paul Marshall/b, Ben Lecourt/dr, Mikal Reid/key are mixed and matched with horns and voices and strings with an 8 mile high collection of harmonies on “Timber, I’m Falling In Love” and Hunting Me.” Terry Reid guests on a bluesy Scarlet Ribbons and a punky “Uno Mundo” has some nice electric guitar work. Ex-Hermit Peter Noone adds a mercy beat vocal to the chiming “Goodbye My Love” and Clark is rhymy on “Del Gato”. Who’s wearing the suede leather jacket?
