Thank you Trane. I have a couple of friends who've lent me or made me copies of all sorts of obscure stuff over the years so I've been lucky enough to hear a smorgasbord of sounds & styles. I've liked lot, been indifferent to most & positively disliked a few bits & bobs. But I'm always on the lookout for something new so it's been an interesting journey.Originally Posted by Trane
Tom Pacheco & Sharon Alexander were a duo who were originally half of the band Euphoria. They were romantically linked & their musical partnership ended with their relationship. They played in a typically late 60s/early 70s high tempo acoustic folk rock style. What set them apart was the quality of Tom's writing. He resurfaced in the mid seventies with a couple of well regarded (in retrospect, at least!) albums on RCA (The Outsider & Swallowed Up In The Great American Heartland), where his erstwhile high-pitched nasel voice had become much gruffer. He disappeared again for a decade & a half before turning up in Ireland with the Eagle In The Rain record. Since then he's released new music regularly, his most recent, Boomtown, just last year. Weirdly, his biggest success has been in Norway where where he charted on a number of occasions, including a number one single, during the nineties. Good old Norway!
Anyway back to your stuff, I'm checking out Broselmaschine & Parzival on Scrotum Scissors' suggestion. Anything else you think I might like?
