- In
1968, 15-year-old guitarist/singer Jay Kaye trekked from Las Vegas to
Vancouver, British Columbia. There, with a top notch team of session
musicians, he recorded the album "Suddenly One Summer", a dark masterpiece of orchestral psychedelia, intended to musically represent the life and death of a man.
The legend is that 15-year-old Jay Kaye (son of American 50s performer Mary Kaye) was visiting Vancouver Canada with his mom, where he met up with local band "Mother Tuckers Yellow Duck" and made this great record with their musical backing.
Although the lyrics are blatantly hippie-ish, the music itself sets a dignified, almost stately mood with its intimacy and tasteful restraint. "Fly" and "Nobody" are genuine lost treasures of low-key late '60s psychedelia and alone make the album worth investigating.
