"Both Carolyn Hester Coalition albums are fine examples of U.S. West Coast-style hippie fuzz psychedelic folk rock, like Neighb'rhood Children, Birmingham Sunday and similar outfits. They were recorded in 1969 and 1970 on the metromedia label and are considered to be a must have for U.S. dreamy folk-psych music collectors. First ever reissue on vinyl. Limited edition, deluxe 180 gram vinyl, exact reproduction of the original first pressing."

Sunbeam's reissue of The Carolyn Hester Coalition's second album, originally released in 1970 on the Metromedia label. Magazine is slightly more moody and not as sunshiney as the first record, but it is still fairly light, approachable West Coast-ish psych/folk/pop. There are some covers on this record, mixed with originals that hold up next to any other record of its ilk from the era. Hester's crystalline, sweet voice is backed by some hauntingly deep and melodic fuzz, proving that Hester wasn't just any Texas songbird. Sunbeam is delighted to announce this long-awaited authorized reissue, produced with Carolyn's full participation. Includes a booklet detailing the band's history, featuring rare photographs -- sure to appeal to all fans of U.S. femme folk-rock.

Though she's best-known for her prominent role in the folk boom that swept America in the early 1960s (appearing on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post in 1964), as well as her involvement with Bob Dylan, Carolyn Hester also recorded two superb albums of fuzzy, sweet-voiced, psychedelic folk-rock in 1969, along with her band, The Coalition. Despite her early associations with traditional folk in the vein of Joan Baez, Hester forged her own pathways, turning down a slot with Peter Yarrow and Paul Stookey, collaborating with Bill Lee and Bruce Langhorne, and eventually trying her hand at forming her own folk-tinged psych band. Sunbeam is delighted to announce the first of two long-awaited, authorized reissues, produced with Carolyn's full participation. Complete with a booklet detailing the band's history and also including rare photographs, this reissue is sure to appeal to all fans of high-class U.S. psychedelia.
