"Sylvie" Country feat.Tom Snow (Lowell George slide guitar)

Unreleased track by the the band Country featuring Tom Snow from 1970. This track has Lowell George on electric slide guitar
This song was released as a bonus track on the Slipstream Records release "Country" (SR0003)

This is from the liner notes included with the Slipstream Records release;
"Originally released in 1971 this forgotten gem is ripe for rediscovery. COUNTRY were originally a duo called Fondiler & Snow. Both Michael Fondiler and Tom Snow had already played with legends. Michael had been a member of the pre-SPIRIT bands The Red Roosters and Western Union whilst Tom had been an original member of Gram Parsons THE LIKE in 1965. With the addition of Michael's brother Steve, Bobby De Simone and Ian Espinoza they became COUNTRY and produced this marvellous album which holds similarities to James Taylor, Jackson Browne & Bread.
Impressed by the band Peter Asher soon took over their leadership but despite recording another fine album their record label pulled the plug. Tom Snow stayed with Peter Asher for a solo career and later became a million selling songwriter for the likes of Linda Ronstadt, Little Feat, Bonnie Riatt, Cher... The list goes on and on.
This Remastered album includes all original tracks including 5 bonus tracks that have never previously been released. One of these gems SYLVIE includes Lowell George on slide guitar. SPIRITS and JO JO GUNNE's Mark & Matt Andes also offer guest performances. Tom Snow tells COUNTRY's story in the extensive liner notes and recalls his days with Gram Parsons." .....

REVIEWS
SHINDIG—Issue 32
"Two great Country-rock albums from 1971—mothing relates them other than their seal of quality and associations with bigger acts. Country absolutely bombed when released on Atlantic subsidiary Clean, which is tragic as it’s an assured and subtly sequenced affair. Managed by Peter Asher—hot on he heels of his success with James Taylor—and with guest spots from Little Feat’s Lowell George and Spirit’s Mark Andes, the future looked for this promising act. It wasn’t. Combining country with Band-like rural rock and deep piano ballads, it’s a staggeringly storng set and major discovery for genre acolytes."
