Clark, Gene / Olson, Carla So Rebellious A Lover LP Vinyl

Limited blue colored vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold jacket. Includes bonus 7" single. An exquisite pairing of talent, the duo of Carla Olson and Gene Clark. The feeling of spontaneity and closeness of spirit engulfs all of the cuts here. Olson's strident and powerful vocals mesh beautifully with Clark's slightly world-weary, soulful performances. As for the material, both songwriters obviously put their best foot forward here. Olson's The Drifter and Are We Still Making Love are excellent country-folk outings. Clark contributes one of his finest later compositions, Gypsy Rider, a multi-leveled song that can easily be viewed as autobiographical. Chemistry is the operative word here. The only sad thing is that So Rebellious a Lover was to be the only studio effort by the duo before Clark passed away in 1991. This record is important not only for what it is, but for what it could have become.
