MOTHER NATURE: Once There Was A Time/Clear Blue Sky (Pink Elephant, NL '72)
Holland had it's own 70's group MOTHER NATURE (from Nibbixwoud/Hoorn; with 45s on Negram and CBS), but they should not be confused with this obscure British band. U.K.'s MOTHER NATURE had two 45's out. Their debut single "Orange Days And Purple Nights" (on B&C, 1971; also released in France ???) looks promising from it's title, but I haven't heard it. Their 2nd 45 from 1972 came out on the Kingdom label, a label owned by former Caravan manager Terry King. This is the one here that got a Dutch release on Pink Elephant. "Once There Was A Time" is great soft folky psych pop. If you dig early Caravan, Strawbs, Incredible String Band etc., this one's for you!
