A Thing That Grows (no label LPS-5504) 1973?
The usual defects apply for this youth folk/light-rock ensemble, namely humdrum unison vocals, mediocre song selection (mostly stuff from Otis Skillings musicals) and the occasional gaggy horn. But I’m also gonna give them a big fat point for that lively rhythm section and garagy electric guitar. That makes for spunky homemade covers of ‘Life’, ‘Right Now’, ‘I Looked For Love’, A Phoney’, ‘Relevant’ and ‘What Would Other People Think?’ that are much better than what you usually get. High school kids from Arlington Heights, Illinois. (The Archivist by Ken Scott, 4th Edition).
