Andy Robinson - Break Out Of The City (1970 us, wonderful folk psych rock, 2018 korean remaster)



The second album by Philadelphia-born singer-songwriter Andy Robinson.   Released in  1970/Janus Records with the support of Janis Ian.  

In addition to the original,  it also includes covers of "I'll Be There" Hall & Oates and "For Free" Joni Mitchell.  The two members of Hall & Oates were backed up by members of the folk rock band  Gulliver, of which Hall was a member. 

The highlight is the world of innocent songs  that reflect the gentle atmosphere of Woodstock,  where they were living at the time.
