It's A Beautiful Day formed in 1976 in San Francisco, California. For years, this album was known for the excellent lead off track, "White Bird" and for it's beautiful album cover, a Maxfield Parrish style pastiche which regularly shows up in collections of the best album covers of all time. The lilting, quiet folk-rock of this San Francisco band, led by David LaFlamme's swirling violin and Patti Santos' soaring vocals will be appreciated by fans of Belle and Sebastian, Nick Drake, and the Grateful Dead's rustic Americana period. Gentle, calm, classic psychedelia. Starting with the majestically wafting "White Bird", LaFlamme, Santos and company create an appealingly drifting, almost narcotic bliss. Of the other excellent tracks, the sultry "Wasted Union Blues" is a particular highlight. Patti Santos (vocals); Hal Wagenet (guitar); David LaFlamme (violin); Linda LaFlamme (keyboards); Mitchell Holman (bass); Val Fluentes (drums). (web review)
