Bleecker and MacDougal.

Fred Neil

Elektra EKS-7293

This is the brown Elektra label, first pressing. Original Elektra inner sleeve included.

LP appears to be in VG condition & so does cover. This is a very rare LP.

Liner notes by Skip Weshner.

"Bleecker & MacDougal, issued by Elektra in 1965, is the first solo album from Fred Neil, a pioneer folk rock musician. The recording, which unlike many folk albums at the time featured electric guitar backing, had a significant influence on the folk rock movement...."

"Guest musicians included Felix Pappalardi on bass, a young John Sebastian playing harmonica, and Pete Childs on dobro and electric guitar....

Except for two tracks, all of the songs on the album were written by Neil....Bleecker & MacDougal was reissued as Little Bit of Rain in 1970....

The album is named for the intersection of Bleecker Street and MacDougal Street in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. A picture of the intersection featured on the album cover. The San Remo Cafe can be seen in the picture, a gathering spot for writers and musicians for decades. Both streets were important locales for folk and rock music of the period...."
