Somebody Blue
by Bill Staines
Champlain Records
1967
Bill's second album, recorded in Massachusetts not long after "A Bag of Rainbows." You can see his solo technique developing and already he has his trademark gift for simple engaging melody. There's more info about this album in his memoir but I don't have my copy with me. Will update in a few months when I have it again, to fill in the whole story of how the record came to be.
I particuarly enjoy "Country Boy" and "That's the Way it Happens All the Time," which also appears on his fourth album.
