All I can say abut this album is…..It’s about time. I have a CD-R rip of this album that I got in the early part of the millennium, and I have been trying to track this album down since. This is one of those album’s that I bring up in conversations with vinyl heads, and question marks appear upon their faces once the question is asked if they’ve heard the album “Everybody’s Own” byHand.

Earlier this year, I posted a song on youtube of my favorite track from this album, “Shifting leads”, which starts off with a jazzy beat, worked with the blending of a somewhat take on Dave Brubeck’s “Take Five’s” main piano riff. It all comes together with guitars and vocals in 22 seconds, and the hook slows things down with an echoed, reverb vocal. Then it gets back on cue with a contagious piano solo. It’s a beautifully crafted piece of music, and come to find out, it was created in most part by teenagers.

An album worth of material was written, performed, and recorded by Marc Osborne and Tony Angier in Switzerland in 1972. It was only available in limited release and within limited reach of music collectors outside of Europe. Thanks to the people at Golden Pavilion Records, and with distribution through Light in the Attic Records, another limited release of 600 copies of this record will be available on DECEMBER 5th. This is one of those records that you shouldn’t let slip pass your radar. With a touch of psych, folk, rock, pop, and jazz, Hand’s “Everybody’s Own” has a little bit of everything for everybody.
