6286. Friend & Lover - Reach Out Of The Darkness
From: Reach Out Of The Darkness ; Year: 1968; Genre: Pop/Folk Don't know why, but felt like picking this rather "groovy" late 1960s track today from the husband and wife duo Friend & Lover. It is kind of interesting the dichotomy of the joyous and upbeat nature of this and other songs from this time period contrasted with all of the societal upheaval, violence, and death surrounding this time. Sadly, both Jim and Cathy post passed away a few years ago, but they did leave a lasting legacy. Also, comedic songster Ray Stevens played keyboards and arranged the strings on this track. Some may be "too cool" to listen to this one, but they are missing out, but the chorus definitely will earworm you something terrible. Hear Reach Out Of The Darkness on YouTube.
