  • Description

    Vinyl LP pressing. Karen Dalton was a remote, elusive creature that would rarely sing in public or would venture into the unnatural setting of a recording studio. Only twice, for 1969's It's So Hard To Tell Who's Going To Love You The Best and then again for 1971's In My Own Time, was she coaxed from her habitat into the studio. In 1966, Carl Baron brought his reel to reel to Summerville, Colorado and recorded a casual musical evening. Karen was rehearsing when Carl hit the Record button. The result is a 45-year-old tape, carefully exhumed, documenting Karen at her most raw and unfiltered. On it are Fred Neil and Tim Hardin songs we've never heard Karen give voice to before, as well as traditional songs she uncannily makes her own, including a devastating version of 'Katie Cruel', that is so powerful, it is as if the ghost of Katie Cruel seeped into her blood.
