This was partly because she ░▐ ▌░ seldom recorded, only making one album in the 1960s - and ░▐ ▌░ that didn't come out until 1969, although she had been known ░▐ ▌░ on the Greenwich Village circuit since the beginning of the ░▐ ▌░ decade. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ It was also partly because, unlike other folksingers of the ░▐ ▌░ era, she was an interpreter who did not record original ░▐ ▌░ material. And it was also because her voice - often compared ░▐ ▌░ to Billie Holiday, but with a rural twang - was too strange ░▐ ▌░ and inaccessible to pop audiences. Nik Venet, producer of her ░▐ ▌░ debut album, went as far as to remark in Goldmine, "She was ░▐ ▌░ very much like Billie Holiday. Let me say this, she wasn't ░▐ ▌░ Billie Holiday but she had that phrasing Holiday had and she ░▐ ▌░ was a remarkable one-of-a-kind type of thing. Unfortunately, ░▐ ▌░ it's an acquired taste, you really have to look for the ░▐ ▌░ music." ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ In 1962, Karen summoned Richard Tucker to join her in ░▐ ▌░ Colorado, extolling the healthier lifestyle and plentiful ░▐ ▌░ gigs at Boulder folk club, The Attic. Upon his arrival, the ░▐ ▌░ pair solidified their personal and professional relationship, ░▐ ▌░ riding horses in the mountains, and performing as a duo at ░▐ ▌░ parties and venues throughout Denver and Boulder. Stories of ░▐ ▌░ the spell they conjured - and rumors of tapes - have ░▐ ▌░ circulated among friends and musicians who witnessed them, ░▐ ▌░ but until now, no recorded evidence had turned up. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ Shuckin' Sugar is the glorious result of three reel to reels ░▐ ▌░ that miraculously found their way to us in November 2018, ░▐ ▌░ which featured two complete shows from The Attic in January ░▐ ▌░ '63, and a benefit concert for The Congress of Racial ░▐ ▌░ Equality (CORE) recorded the following February. Their gigs ░▐ ▌░ would often include brief solo sets from Karen and Richard, ░▐ ▌░ in addition to the duets, and all seven solo performances by ░▐ ▌░ Karen found on the three reels are included here, as well as ░▐ ▌░ five duets, sequenced as close to how it all went down as ░▐ ▌░ humanly possible. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ To describe the record would take a poet, but all I can say ░▐ ▌░ is that unveiling a missing chapter in the Karen Dalton story ░▐ ▌░ - with six songs we've never heard her sing before - is cause ░▐ ▌░ for celebration in Delmore's world. ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ "From her opening, jaw-dropping lift-off with early blues ░▐ ▌░ standard "Trouble In Mind," the unique otherworld Karen ░▐ ▌░ conjured springs into vivid life. Playing to audiences ░▐ ▌░ inevitably bound to the era's formalities and traditions, ░▐ ▌░ Karen instinctively pushed the envelope, straying into ░▐ ▌░ uncharted territory beyond the established borders. She must ░▐ ▌░ have bewildered many who came to see her in those winsome ░▐ ▌░ Peter, Paul and Mary times." --From the liner notes by Kris ░▐ ▌░ Needs ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ▄▄▄┌─────────────┐▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ░▐ ▌░ ▒▒▒│ marr │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ░▐ ▌░ └─────────────┘ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ indie . pop . rock . shoegaze . dream . jangle . twee ░▐ ▌░ chamber . noise . c-86 . college . goth . post rock ░▐ ▌░ kraut . post punk . darkwave . alternative . lo-fi ░▐ ▌░ country . americana . folk . folk/rock . progressive rock ░▐ ▌░ psychedelic rock . stoner . doom . sludge . desert . fuzz ░▐ ▌░ grunge . metal . heavy metal . hair metal . hard rock ░▐ ▌░ drone . aor . classic rock . southern rock . west coast ░▐ ▌░ hardcore . punk rock . garage . library . soundtrack ░▐ ▌░ avantgarde . classical . electronic . ambient . new wave ░▐ ▌░ synthpop . leftfield . experimental ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ▌░ ░▐ ░▌░ ░ █ █ ░ ░▐░ ▌░ ▓▓█ █▓▓ ░▐ ▌░ ░█ █░ ░▐ ▌░ █ ░ ▒ ░ ░ ▒ ░ █ ░▐ ░ ▌░██ ░ ▒█████░ ░█████▒ ░ ██░▐ ░ ▒ ░ ▌░█ ░ ███▓ ▓██ ▒ ▒ ██▓ ▓███ ░ █░▐ ░ ▒ ░██ ▌█▓ ████ █▒ ▒█ ████ ▓░▐ ██░ ░██████░ ███ █ █ ███ ░██████░ ██████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████ ▒███ ███▒ ██ █ █ ██ ▒███ ███▒ ████ ████████ ▒ █ █ ▒ ████████ ████ ████░ ███████░ ░░ █ █ ░░ ░███████ ░████ █████░ ████▒ ▒ ▓█ █▒ ▒█ █▓ ▒ ▒████ ░█████ █████░ ██████████ ███ █ █ ███ ██████████ ░█████ ▒██████ ░ ███████▒ ████▒▒█ █▒▒████ ▒███████ ░ ██████▒ ░ ███░ ███ ░ * █▓▓ ▓▓ ▓▓█ * ░ ███ ░███ ░ █░ ███ █░ *** * * █▒█▒▒██████▒▒█▒█ * * *** ░█ ███ ░█ ████ ██ * ████████ ████████ * ██ ████ ████████ * *** ░ ░██████ ██████░ ░ *** * ████████ █████ ** ░ ████ ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ ████ ░ ** █████ ▒█████████████▒▒ ░░ ░░ ▒▒█████████████▒ ░▓██████████▒ ░░ ░░ ▒██████████▓░ ▒█████ ░░ ░░ █████▒ ███ ███ ██ ██ ▒█ █▒ https://www.deezer.com/us/album/313910407
