Product Description

Album Details

Genesis, the sole album by SF-based sisters Wendy and Bonnie Flower, ranks as one of the most remarkable unheard albums of 1969. With melodic confections laced with radiant sisterly harmony, the breezy Brazilian splashes and soft-rock strains of Genesis convey a sophistication that belies the artists' tender ages (Wendy 17, Bonnie 13). Produced for reissue by Irwin Chusid (author of 'Songs In The Key Of Z: The Curious Universe Of Outsider Music') with Wendy & Bonnie's full participation, Genesis makes its long-awaited official CD bow with 5 bonus tracks, interviews with Wendy & Bonnie, and a treasure trove of candid photos. 15 tracks. 2001 reissue.

5.0 out of 5 stars 埋もれた傑作, 2004/1/4
By 天乃川 (大阪) - See all my reviews
1969年Skye Recordsからリリースされるも、'70年の同レーベルの倒産と重なったためほとんど流通しなかった傑作。'68年11月本作品が録音された当時姉のWendy(Blondeの方)は17歳、妹のBonnieは13歳(!)だった。'67年WendyがVo、BonnieがDr.をしていたバンドのシングル(内一曲がボーナストラックとして収録)を聴いた関係者が本人に連絡を取り、シングル2枚の契約をしたがあまりに曲が良すぎるので結局はアルバムとなったという。Larry CarltonやJim Keltnerなどによる巧みで無駄がない印象的なバッキングに憂いのあるコーラスが乗る最高の展開で日本人の琴線に触れる要素が多い（実際欧米よりも先に日本で発掘・評価された）。なお一部で噂されたWendyがPrince familyの一員だった、というのは出鱈目。これまたSundazedからの再発で音質もリマスターされて完璧、貴重なdemo音源も絶句するほど良い。

5.0 out of 5 stars 女性ボーカル好きに。, 2004/1/8
多くのソフトロックを聴いてきましたが、その中でも最後まで残っているアルバムです。
完璧なバックミュージシャンを背景とし、浮遊感漂うオルガンとスレスレなコーラス。
幻想的なサイケ・ソフトロックに仕上がっております。

かわいい音好きにはこれ！

5.0 out of 5 stars 本当に?, 2007/7/17
By こやすみちこ (福岡県) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
これぞソフトロック最大の奇跡というべき大名盤なんですが、演奏の素晴らしさは、バックミュージシャンの豪華さによるものだとして、何とわずか十代半ばの男女がこの複雑な楽曲を全て生み出したということの脅威。本当かよと疑ってしまいそうなほど、あまりにも練られている楽曲は、確かに少女２人の線は細いが、完璧なハーモニーで歌われている。M3などは、後にマイク･オールウェイのレーベルifのコンピで、カバーされていたが、そのコンピの中でもメロディの良さが際立っていたのを覚えている。そんな事実を突きつけられればられるほど、本当にこの可愛い少女二人が作曲したのだろうかという疑問が拭いきれないものがあった。

そして、ある一つの噂を知った。なんとこの二人うちウェンディは、あのプリンス･ファミリーのウェンディ＆リサのウェンディだというではないか。うーん、そうかそれなら全て合点がいく。確かにこの名盤「Genesis」は彼女らのペンにより書かれたものだ。しかし、本当だろうか？　結局分からない。

サンフランシスコ出身の当時17歳と13歳の姉妹69年発表のアルバム、って、え？弟じゃなかったの？どう見てもジャケからエクソシストを連想してしまうのって変ですか？... 続きを読む
