Nora Guthrie, daughter of American folk singer Woody Guthrie, sister of singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie, and granddaughter of renowned Yiddish poet Aliza Greenblatt, released this single in 1967 at the age of 17.
This beautiful and strange song depicts 19th century Art Nouveau aestheticism with a sound image reminiscent of the Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds," and is a miraculous masterpiece that will be listened to for generations to come, combining psychedelia and acid folk sensibilities!
