1969 AMERICAN HIPPIE PSYCH GEM ala Jefferson Airplane
GENESIS
In The Beginning
\ USA - (buildings label) MERCURY - SR 61175
MINT still in original factory shrink wrapper....SCARCE vintage Mercury Records issued psychedelic hippie rock gem on the buildings label of Mercury Records...
This GENESIS was an American rock psychedelia with female vocals, recommended to fans of the San Francisco sixties Jefferson Airplane sound. Not anything like the UK progressive Genesis, but rather a highly rated solid album which features cool memorable self compositions, the groovy hippievibe and warm acid laced female voice...
Here's an outfit many would like to know more about ... To be honest, the only biographical clue found is that the great fuzzy guitarist Jack Ttanna was a member of the L.A.-based The Sons of Adam (he played under his given name Joe Kooken).
1968's "In the Beginning" is nothing less than great. as noted above, the album bares a comparison to the Jefferson Airplane, though without the Airplane's penchant for needless filler. Musically the set offers up a mixture of hard rock (the opener 'Angelina'), folk-rock ('Gloomy Sunday') and California-styled mid-1960s' psych (the fuzz guitar drenched 'What's It All About'). As exemplified by a nice cover of Leonard Cohen's 'Suzanne', Richman and Ttanna had great voices that blended well and were effortlessly capable of handling the album's different genres. Highlights include - Henry's meltdown performance on the extended (16+ mins) closer 'World without You'.
Following the album's release, Rivera was drafted. He was quickly replaced by Jimmy Chappell. Unfortunately the album did little commercially and within a couple of months the band had called it quits. In the wake of the band's breakup Henry played with Charity and was a member of a late-inning Steppenwolf lineup. Following his military service Rivera hooked up with Delaney Bramblett, while Richman briefly sang with The Thieves.
The album's increasingly difficult to find.
