A companion EP to the recent double LP retrospective This Song Was Borne (ROAR 039LP, 2016), Flight Of The Light Air Force features three exclusive tracks by cult favorite psych-folk duo Fraser and DeBolt.

ROAR 039LP
|
2016 release. Allan Fraser and Daisy DeBolt met in the summer of 1969. They had both been working individually on the coffeehouse circuit in their native Canada; over the next five years, as the duo of Fraser and DeBolt, they created a sublime body of work that still sounds remarkably fresh decades later. They recorded two albums (With Ian Guenther, 1971 and With Pleasure, 1973) for Columbia which garnered rave reviews at the time, but saw little commercial success. Both have since become cult classics in psychedelic folk circles, with the first, With Ian Guenther, being particularly beloved amongst a coterie of die-hard fans. Their combination of ragged-but-right salt & pepper harmonies, evocative lyrics, and beautiful songs shot through with occasional dissonant grace notes combined with careful arrangements that still managed to sound off-the-cuff made for some of the most beguiling music of its era. Now, Roaratorio is proud to present This Song Was Borne, a double LP collection of previously unreleased demos, studio outtakes, radio sessions, and live recordings from Fraser and DeBolt's archives, spanning their entire career, in a deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket with detailed liner notes from Allan and Daisy.
