HAL PARIS - UNTIL LOVING FINDS ME

 

After a hiatus of 5 years it is great to announce the release of this new release by Hal Paris of unreleased demos recorded between 1971-72. Slipstream Records have teamed up with Torn & Frayed to produce our very first vinyl release which is now available for purchase here and download via Bandcamp. Hal sadly died in December 2023 but was very much part of this project choosing the songs and running order. It is therefore sad that Hal never got to see the fruition of our endeavours. Hal’s final email to me signed off as follows: “It’s been an amazing life you me and I’m glad you were part of the movie. Peace, Hal”

 

Ride on down the highway, Hal. Straight in to the sun.

“Of Sun and Rain” proves an inordinately fascinating album, a privileged glimpse into a creative maelstrom that still after several play-throughs promises to reveal even more delights.  It certainly deserves the ‘lost classic’ tag.
David Kidman, Folk Radio UK

Recorded and released in [late 1968], “Of Sun and Rain” by two high school students from Riverside, California, Ken Kusudo and Jeff Worth, is one of the hidden jewels in the Custom Fidelity catalog … It would be more than forty years before collectors became aware of this wonderful but incredibly obscure folk album … Everything about “Of Sun and Rain” is just right … ten haunting, beautifully-nuanced acoustic folk songs … original compositions … influenced by the work of Donovan, Tim Buckley, and Simon & Garfunkel, yet resonating with a youthful innocence and sincerity of its own.

Mike Stax, UGLY THINGS

“Following the demise of Country Funk after only one album, Hal Paris continued writing and recording, gradually amassing a collection of songs that finally sees release here. Captured across various sessions in the early 70s, the 14 demos compiled here feature Paris both solo and with a band and reflect the mellow, melodic soft-rock of the period. The recordings are relatively lo-fi but warm and intimate. Paris sings in a relaxed and occasionally yearning voice over mostly acoustic arrangements. Lyrically Paris draws from familiar singer-songwriter themes; heartbreak, driving on the open road, and the search for inner peace. The boogie of Colleen Colleen and fuzzy electric of Until Loving Finds Me offer contrast to the introspective tone of the album. Instrumental Lady Jane adds further variety, possessing a cinematic quality that suggests a Western soundtrack that never was, A quietly sincere snapshot of vintage Americana.
