ERIC ANDERSEN
with DEBBY GREEN, BRUCE LANGHORN, NICK GEFROH, ANDY JOHNSON,
JAYDEE MANNESS, LEE CRABTREE, THE NAKED APES
One of the first singer/songwriters to make a name in the post-Dylan Greenwich Village folk boom.
Eric Andersen has maintained a career as a folk-based singer/songwriter since the 1960s. In contrast to such peers as Tom Paxton and Phil Ochs, Andersen's writing has had a romantic/philosophical/poetic bent for the most part, rather than a socially conscious one, though one of his best-known songs, "Thirsty Boots," is about the Freedom Riders in the early '60s."AVALANCHE"
Produced by Eric Andersen and Jerry Goldstein for Sound Of Gold Productions, Inc.

RECORD NEAR EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE VG(+) but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Major session dudes Chuck Rainey, Bruce Langhorne, J.D. Maness, Eric Gale, and Lee Crabtree were on hand to provide a professional yet reserved sound. He broached pop territory on "Think About It" and "So Hard to Fall," which really wouldn't have sounded bad on AM radio, female vocals and orchestration included. "(We Were) Foolish Like the Flowers" and the son-lost-to-war lament "For What Was Gained" were more in line with what listeners usually expected from Andersen: gentle, almost fragile, introspective mild folk-rock...(AllMusic)
