Default Re: \"Lost\" Albums

An oldie but a goodie most of the kids here probably have never heard of.

A Scratch in the Sky - The Cryan Shames

This is a near perfect album from the late 60's. I'm guessing 1967. The Cryan Shames were very talented with fantasic harmonies and were pretty good musicians. They were (at the time) compared favorably to The Beatles but due to some internal problems never really had the opportunity to take off and were done after 3 albums. This one was their masterpiece. The "hit" on this particular album was "It could be we're in love" which is a great song. But their non-hits are really great and extremely well written and performed.

I really wish these guys could have stuck together and done more. But the little they did accomplish I still cherish and listen to regularly.
