Mellow Yellow (YELLOW VINYL)
Brand: Sundazed Music Inc
Donovan's fourth album, 1967's Mellow Yellow, is a dynamic transitional effort that finds the singer-songwriter-guitarist expanding his artistry into rewarding new areas. In addition to the sing-along title hit, which famously inspired a persistent urban legend regarding the recreational consumption of banana peels, Mellow Yellow encompasses acoustic introspection (''Writer in the Sun''), crafty art-pop (''Museum''), bittersweet insight (''Young Girl Blues''), beat poetry (''The Observation'') and a fond nod to British folk icon Bert Jansch (''House of Jansch''). In addition to the production of British Invasion legend Mickie Most, Mellow Yellow features ear-catching arrangements by future Led Zeppelin member John Paul Jones and sitar by cult singer-songwriter Shawn Phillips. With its original mono mix capturing the vibrant vibes of Donovan during this incredibly creative and productive period, this vintage gem has never sounded better! TRACK LIST: 1. Mellow Yellow 2.
