Parallelograms

Linda Perhacs' 'Parallelograms' merges her delicate, crystalline vocals and intricate acoustic folk songwriting with the avant-garde and electronic production of composer Leonard Rosenman. The album's lyrics are rooted in rich natural and synesthetic imagery, while the sound is augmented by multi-tracked vocal harmonies, tape effects, and jazz-inflected arrangements. Initially ignored upon its 1970 release, the record was rediscovered decades later, earning significant cult status as a defining and singular work of the psychedelic folk era.
