  1. Thanks KJ, surprised I didn't already have it but I didn't. Very interesting record.

    Here's a text file for it:
    Tedd Smith - New Vibrations (A Quest In Folk Rock) (Light LS-5561-LP) 1971?

    An original musical written and conceived by Tedd Smith

    This one’s not too shabby, though I must say it pales next to Smash & Grab World. The main difference is in the vocals which are provided here by Ralph Carmichael’s Young People, with John Bahler and Kim Carmichael as soloists. Described as a “quest in folk rock”, New Vibrations has some pleasant artful pop and quasi-rock, often infused with a groovy now-sound jet-set mentality that keep things on the level. A couple easy listening low points, but they also cut loose on the last track with a soulful rocker. Much more interesting than other Young People projects. (The Archivist by Ken Scott, 4th Edition).

  2. I had this years ago (got it from a 3/$1.00 used bin). I found that the best part was the eerie sound collage that opens the album with the crying baby mixed with other sounds. Some of the melodies were OK, but overall I found it rather depressing with too many slow and mournful songs in a row. At least it picked up the tempo near the end. I listened to it a few times but it didn't end up being a keeper.
