Robert Lester Folsom – If You Wanna Laugh, You Gotta Cry Sometimes: Archives Vol. 3, 1972-1975 [Colored Vinyl]

If You Wanna Laugh, You Gotta Cry Sometimes: Archives Vol. 3, 1972-1975 is yet another magical discovery from Georgia-born singer-songwriter and guitarist Robert Lester Folsoms oeuvre of soft psychedelia and rural Southern rock n roll, written and recorded over fifty years ago yet prophetically relevant today. Born of lost summers, new love (and the breaks that follow), and hippie bluegrass shakes, these spirited takes to 4-track tape capture Folsoms earliest wizardry. A prismatic window into a young artist finding their artistic footing, and a testament to why Folsoms legacy burns bright to this day.
