about

This features our cellist, Sandy Spencer. She was the first cellist I ever knew who improvised. At the time (1971-72) this was unheard of! After Mormos, and some touring with English guitarist John Renbourn, Sandy returned to the Cape Cod area, where she taught classical cello for many years. None of her students ever knew of her “wild past!” Her solo on this recording actually goes on for nearly 8 minutes. I edited it for brevity; but I can make it available for private listening if anyone is interested.

Jim Cuomo: domra, vocals
Elliott Delman: guitar
Annie the Hat: lead vocals
Ernest Mansfield: alto flute
Sandy Spencer: cello

lyrics

Where the great wall of China meets the ground,
A man can stand and know mountain beyond
And brick beside and, ignorant of how it cause or when,
Can recognize the hand of brother man.
Where the great wall of China meets the ground,
A man can stand and know mountain beyond
And even this mountain is walked by shepherds and yeti.
