Album Notes & Community Reviews
The sole studio album by the teenage sisters Wendy and Bonnie Flower is a striking piece of soft, harmonically complex psychedelic pop. Discovered and produced by jazz vibraphonist Gary McFarland, the record features sophisticated vocal arrangements backed by top-tier session musicians. Though largely overlooked upon its initial release, the collection has since been championed by modern artists for its incredibly lush, melancholic atmosphere.
