Recorded in 1968 in Toronto, Canada. Lynn David Newton,
the founder of TIME studied in the same class as Jim Cuomo
from The Spoils Of War in Urbana IL, Beside 2 other members
the artist David Rosenboom was a member of TIME.
This is a musical masterpiece. Wellcomposed, wellplayed, touchy
and twisted. All original songs with a big influence from the British
Underground, with harpsichord, flutes, percussions, horns, many
effects and lot┤s of heavy fuzzguitar and a singer who sounds like
Robert Wyatt in the early 70┤s.
They never made it, of course. A move to the Big Apple, a name
change to Think Dog!, and a few gigs later the band went kaput, as
its members drifted into careers in academia, computer
programming, and whatever else responsible adults do.
The band left not so much as a lipstick trace on music history,
releasing exactly nothing during its brief incarnation. It did, however,
stare down severe snowstorms and drive into Toronto in early
1968 to record an album that has only just now been released,
nearly four decades after the fact, by Shadoks, the veritable
Indiana Jones of rock archeology, a label that digs not into Egyptian
tombs but into mildewy garages and stacks of dusty old reels to bring
us the music that time (and probably even members of Time) has
forgotten.
Imagine Mia Farrow in the movie Rosemaries Baby sitting in her
window and watching the NY streets below while it┤s raining outside
...that┤s what the music feels like.
