Not to be confused with the Ohio-based One St. Steven, this Boston, Massachusetts-based outfit is one of those mystery acts nobody seems to know all that much about. While some references refer to it as a band, it was apparently a one-man act led by former Front Page Review and late-inning Ultimate Spinach alumnus Steve Cataldo. Regardless, of his background, St. Steven managed to release one intriguing album on ABC's Probe subsidiary.

Confusingly, even though the album title credits 'Saint Steven, the 13 tracks are credited to 'St. Steven'. Even Probe Records seemed confused since the single 'Ay-Aye-Poe-Day' b/w 'Louisiana Home' (Probe catalog number 465) was credited to St. Steven. While we're not sure what the right name is, 1969's John Turner produced "Over the Hills" is certainly worth hearing. Musically the set offers up a bizarre mix of commercial folk-rock ('Grey Skies'), pseudo-psych moves ('Bastich 1'), hard rock ('Poor Small') and sound effects ('Voyage To Cleveland'). In spite of it's lack of focus, Cataldo was a more than decent singer and capable of writing attractive and quite commercial material.

( ) The two sides of the album are titled "The Bastich" and "Over The Hills", which is why the latter is often referred to as the title in dealers' lists. (badcatrecords.com)
