McDonald & Giles




I had never heard of this one but was intrigued by the laid back but not lazy photos of some folks on the cover. The fold is on the n in "and", thus just giving half a "n", d, and the word Giles on the front cover, basically demanding the unfolding of this one.  The colors make it seem like this will be a typical 60's folk album but the man in a tie shakes all that up.  The first track is 11 minutes, and after some initial digging, found out McDonald played with King Crimson, thus a couple bloated minutes sounded par for the course.  However, that is not the case.  Track 1
