Notes


Donovan – Donovan In Concert (1968) 24-bit/96kHz Vinyl Rip

Folk-Rock | 1968 UK stereo LP | Pye NSPL 18237

‘Donovan In Concert’ features a 1967 concert recorded at the Anaheim Convention Center, just a few weeks after his Hollywood Bowl show. The band is a quintet with Harold McNair on flute and saxophone, Loren Newkirk on piano, Andy Tronosco on upright bass, Tony Carr on drums, and John Carr on bongos. Donovan plays acoustic guitar throughout. The hippy mysticism and flower power poet is everywhere here. This isn't rock star excess at all, but an organic, drenched-in-sunshine concert full of gentleness with a premium on good vibes. Donovan was already an expert at getting audiences to eat out of his hand, and here that happens in spades. ‘Donovan In Concert’ is one of the great live albums of the '60s. Thom Jurek, allmusic.
