THE COWSILLS
We Can Fly
(MGM SE 4534) 2/68
The band's second LP proper refines their sugar-sweet sunshine sound; a fair proportion of the titles involve sunny days, being happy, flying etc. And why not? At least the innocence captured here is a teen emotion rather than a cynic's perspective (the LP is self produced, and most of the cuts are band compositions). Harmonies are great throughout, and while the LP is largely upbeat, there are a couple of reflective moments, while the brilliantly - titled 'Beautiful Beige' is probably the most psychedelic number (though it's all relative).
