Release Info

After beginning career as a Southern, 1950s-style teen rocker in the Buddy Holly mode, Tommy Roe shifted gears in 1967 with IT'S NOW WINTER'S DAY and PSYCHE, which juxtaposed his MOR pop songs with the psychedelic stylings of sunshine pop producer Curt Boettcher. PAISLEY DREAMS collects both efforts, summarizing Roe's brief period of psychedelic experimentation. With left-field production flourishes, just-below-the-surface Southern grit, and solid (if not transcendent) songwriting by Roe, IT'S NOW WINTER'S DAY is the stronger of the two, highlighted by the bizarre, Boettcher-orchestrated curio "It's Now Winter's Day." On the less dynamic PSYCHE, both Roe and Boettcher seem to be running out of ideas, though Roe would return to the pop fore in 1969 with his bubblegum smash, "Dizzy."
