On My Side

On My Side

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this 1971 album from the Sunshine/Bubblegum Pop band includes three bonus tracks. The Cowsills possessed one of the most pleasing vocal blends in all of popular music. In addition, they created without proper credit the blueprint for countless other singing family bands, including, the TV-created Partridge Family, who were actually based on The Cowsills. Released in 1971, on My Side was the band's swan song of their original era. Remarkably, The Cowsills were at the peak of their powers, beautifully melding their dynamic vocal ability with an earthier, West Coast sound that at times recalls Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and Sunflower/Surf's Up-era Beach Boys. Cherry Red.
