Heron

One of our absolute favorite records we've ever had the pleasure of listening to is Heron's 1970 self-titled debut. The album was recorded outside in the middle of a field near the River Thames. You can actually hear birds chirping on several songs and at the end of "Car Crash" a band member laughs as he quietly whispers, "little black things are crawling all over me." Heron will make you want to move to the country, buy an assortment of farm animals, and live in a never ending time where spring straddles summer. It's strawberry pies and gooseberry pudding.MP3: Heron - Yellow RosesMP3: Heron - Sally GoodinMP3: Heron - Car Crash
