Really , as good as it gets. This California trio had a sound similar to Jefferson Airplane (not surprising considering their producer was Al Schmitt, the Airplane producer) with powerful female vocals by Chris Christman. An excellent example of the American tough psychedelic sound with some great fuzz guitar / organ interplay on the best track Silver Rains. All their material was written by Chris Christman and Kenny Thomure, Mike McAuley being also credited for Silver Rains and Wark on Last Laugh. None of the group members appear to have played in any documented group before or after Ivory. Recommended. Ken Thomure and Mike McCauley grew up together and played together in Boron, California. After high school the duo decided to go to Hollywood and form a band there. They bumped into Christman, who lived in Westchester, on Sunset Strip. They started out by playing small clubs then graduated to out-of-town gigs and set up a production company. Next they acquired manager Tony Christian, who got them auditions and a recording contract. After the LP was recorded they got bigger gigs, a TV appearance on the Tonight, and went on their first tour in Colorado. On their return to L.A., McCauley was drafted and sent to Vietnam where he was wounded, and the band never recovered. Silver Rains can also be found on Journey To The East (LP). There was also another act by the same name who had a self-titled album on Playboy (115) in 1973. We had this listed as a reissue of the above album, but this is incorrect, the music is by a completely different group and is said to be terrible.
