Pearls Before Swine's 'Underground' Classic Reissued 50 Years Later
A seminal but relatively underheard album from 1967, One Nation Underground has just been properly reissued. I talk with the group's singer and songwriter Tom Rapp.
Here is one of the seminal underground records of the late 1960s: The band is Pearls Before Swine, and the album is called One Nation Underground.
Although the album has been reissued on a number of occasions,, and I'm so glad I can properly turn you on to a classic you might not know about (and hopefully will love as much as I do). It mixes folk music with exotic instrumentation, and captures an innocence that I don't think will ever exist again in recorded music.
