Gene Clark

As with Under the Silvery Moon, Gypsy Angel is collection of demos from Clark's final years. The bulk of the disc is devoted to songs he was working on when he died in 1991. A lot of this stuff is obviously undercooked, but the production's intimate feel allows listeners to get close to the mysterious poet that Clark was. Interestingly enough, tracks like "Mississippi Detention Camp" find Clark returning to mystical epics he stopped writing after the commercial failure of 1974's No Other.
