"Bobby Callender - Rainbow -1968 US":
Callender is an afro American who turned to mystic and reaches himself into Indian raga, philosophies from the East. Bobby Callender really made an interesting release, loads of sitars and some very fine melodies.Originally released in 1968 by MGM, pure Eastern influenced psychedelia produced by Alan Lorber, music to be seriously stoned by.
"Rainbow" is a very personal spiritual approach with end 60's progressive foundation. The singing has deep emotions, is fragile in its mellowness. The association for listeners and for Bobby might be different. He was on his spiritual search. For us he's in a sort of musical mind-blowing experience.

Looking forward to this !!
this record is great, and so is Bobby´s next one, "The Way".
someone has to write a new bio for this record. "afro-american turned mystic" is not much of a stretch from "negro turned mystic" (from the lost in tyme post a couple of years ago). that description is a little weird. it's a good record, tho.
