Try finding a PROMO COPY SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY Homer is very much underrated and forgotten classic band, which deserves to be better known.
Texans from San Antonio originally , they moved to Houston by 1969, where a string of 45s was released on Universal Recording Artists - starting with the cover of Willie Nelson s I Never Cared For You .
Although the music of the band has strong American roots one can easily pinpoint elements of country and distinctive sound of steel guitar , they had an inclination towards quite heavy psychedelia and acquired a taste of British prog Moody Blues, for example with sophisticated and richly orchestrated compositions and unison singing Four Days And Nights Without You and lonely Woman could easily be on vintage Uriah Heep album, while Cyrano In The Park has a distant flavour of Maurice Ravel .
Quite often high-pitched vocals just give up meditative British melancholy, and go into sheer acid hysteria.
It s true that the band is more prog than psych Homer was: Phil Bepko and Frank Coy vocals , Galen Niles lead guitar , Howard Gloor steel lead guitar , Gene Coleman drums and Chet Himes bass .
After releasing the 3rd single in 1970 Dandelion Wine/Sunrise , Homer managed to produce self-titled album, which went into obscurity for decades, but finally found its way to eager fans - although through pirate compilations either on Akarma or Flawed Gems , or acid collections.
Pity, but Sunrise and Dandelion Wine are not featured.
There was no justice in the world of rock music, otherwise Homer should have been competing with top-league British peers If you need a play copy of this, this is the one.
