Mellow Candle ‎- Swaddling Songs

Deram 1972

06 Dan The Wing
07 Reverend Sisters
08 Break Your Token
09 Buy Or Beware

Not sure why it's taken me this long to post Mellow Candle's 'Swaddling Songs'. It's classic psych folk, with a prog hint here and there. The best moments are the spooky songs, 'Reverend Sisters' being a favourite.

Original copies go for thousands and remains the only album the band released in it's lifetime.
