Melanie, “The Best Of . . .” (Buddah, 1972, original release late 1960s)
Melanie was the archetypal diva of hippiedom – jubilant, kooky, ingenuous, arms spread so wide to embrace the world she always seemed on the verge of falling over. The musical settings range from nursery-rhyme to barrelhouse rock and roll to acid-folk-gospel mélange to classic singer-songwriter strum, and Melanie invests it all with drama, imagination and a pure and powerful utopian spirit that may well make you wish we still lived in her world instead of ours.
