RELATIVELY CLEAN RIVERS

- Long before the term Cosmic Americana was?of common use there was a band ideally fitting the role. Back in 1976?the long psychedelic wave was rapidly fading away, but the market of?private press was still in demand. The self-debut album of Relatively?Clean Rivers came out the same year on the leader Phil Pearlman?label. Pacific Is released just this sole album and was to a certain?extent an original example of do it yourself. The brainchild of Phil?Pearlman, the band was rapidly crossing genres focusing on?extended long jam verging on Californian psych and proto-ambient?country/folk.
