Album Notes Originally released in 1967 as ECHOES (WITH THE GODSIN BROTHERS). Personnel: Gene Clark (vocals); Bill Rinehart, Clarence White, Glen Campbell, Jerry Kole (guitar); Leon Russell (piano, harpsichord); Chris Hillman (bass); Mike Clarke (drums); The Gosdin Brothers. This, Gene Clark's first solo album, was released the same week in March 1967 as the Byrds' first album since his departure, YOUNGER THAN YESTERDAY. However, as one magazine noted, the Byrds' album made the upper reaches of Billboard's Top 200, while this record did not even make the bottom 100. Such was the fate of a man ahead of his time. Besides the excellent Everly Brothers-style harmonies of the Gosdin Brothers, there are elements of nascent psychedelia (the over-amped "So You Say You Lost Your Baby"), pre-Sgt. Pepper orchestral pop ("Echoes"), and buoyant garage rock ("Elevator Operator"). An eminently listenable, beautifully crafted album, its status as a minor classic is well deserved.
