Now *that’s* a smile.

In a year and an era during which astonishing albums and singles were appearing weekly, Gene Clark and Doug Dillard’s 1968 album “The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard & Clark” stands out as a glorious milestone of early country/folk-rock.

The Man with the Miniature Orchestra

by Dave Algonquin

There were phrases of Beethoven’s 9th symphony that still made Coe cry. He always thought it had to do with the circumstances of the composition itself. He imagined Beethoven, deaf and soul-sick, his heart broken, scribbling furiously while Death stood in the doorway, clipping his nails. Still, Coe thought, it might have been living in the country that was making him cry; it was killing him with its silence and loneliness, making everything ordinary too beautiful to bear.
