Fallenrock - Watch For Fallenrock (1974 us, soft folk rock with nice with vocal harmonies and melodically swaying tunes)

A sweet 70s set on Capricorn Records – one from a time when the label was moving away from a more slavishly southern sound, and really opening up to some other currents of the period! The group have a nice way of harmonizing on the vocals, with some slight rootsy elements in the instrumentation, supported with richer backings overall – maybe a style that's a more southern take on the territory of America, with a slightly more AOR vibe overall. Titles include the great "She's A Mystery", plus "World On A String", "Lonely In Churchville", "I'm Never Alone", "Tie Me", and "We Got Love".

Larry Keith, Steve Pippin, and Rafe Van Hoy are Fallenrock, based out of Nashville, TN. They only had this one 1974 release, which came out just before Warner Bros acquired Capricorn Records, and thus Fallenrock fell between the cracks, making this an obscure recording today.  Rafe Van Hoy wrote or co-wrote many country hits, including "Golden Ring" for George Jones & Tammy Wynette; "Let’s Keep It That Way" by Mac Davis, Tanya Tucker, & others; "Sail Away" by The Oak Ridge Boys; and "What’s Forever For" by Michael Murphey. "Watch For Fallenrock",  produced by Johnny Slate & Larry Henley (of The Newbeats) for Windchime Productions, Inc.
