So Rebellious A Lover, Rhino Records. . Released in 1987, Gene Clark's collaboration with Carla Olson (formerly of the Textones) breathed new life into his career. The album's straight forward approach of mainly acoustic guitars with minimal accompaniment brought forth the beauty of the songs and the pairing of Gene and Carla's voices. Both artist's contributions to the album are top shelf and work well together among cover songs by Woody Guthrie Gram Parsons and John Fogerty. Standout tracks include "The Drifter" & "Are We Still Making Love?" (Olson) and "Gypsy Rider" & "Del Gato" by Gene (the latter co-written with Gene's younger brother Rick Clark). Their version of the traditional song "Fair And Tender Ladies" is just beautiful to hear. Newer versions of the album include some excellent bonus tracks not included on the original. . . #GeneClark #GetGeneIn #GeneClark50 #singersongwriter #SongwritersHoF #countryrock #folkrock #CarlaOlson #vinyl #records #discography
