"New Dawn - There's A New Dawn - 1970 US": Super rare US psych album from 1970, dreamy and atmospheric. This psychedelic rock band hailing from Salem, Oregon.
In 1966, Joe Smith and Larry Davis got together and started playing at party's.

By the first part of 1967, Bob Justen and Dan Bazzy had joined the group and The New Dawn was born. For the next two years, the band played at party's, dances and local bars.

In 1969, the group quit their day jobs and signed with a booking agent. They added a fifth member, Bob Green, to front the group and share the lead vocal load with the drummer and lead singer, Dan Bazzy, and went on the road. They played in clubs in Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Nevada, California, and Alaska. In 1970, Bob Green was replaced by Bill Gartner and the group recorded and released their first album "There's a New Dawn".

The album is full of fuzz guitars , acid organ sounds and a few nice soft rock ballads.
