| Omschrijving | Esoteric Recordings release of a new re-mastered 2-
CD anthology featuring all of the recordings by the
American Psychedelic / Progressive band ARS NOVA
released by Elektra & Atlantic records in 1968 and
1969.
Formed in New York City in 1967 by two former
students from the Mannes College musical
conservatory, Wyatt Day (guitar, keyboards,
vocals), Jon Pierson (trombone, vocals) and Maury
Baker (drums). The line-up was expanded by the
addition of Jonathan Raskin (bass, backing vocals,
guitar) and Giovanni Papalia (lead guitar). After
spending some time rehearsing in rural Vermont, the
band added Bill Folwell to their ranks on double
bass and trumpet. Coming to the attention of
manager Arthur Gorson (who also managed Phil Ochs
and Judy Collins) the band secured an audition for
Jac Holzman’s Elektra label and secured a contract
soon after.
The band’s self-titled debut album was recorded at
Sunset Sound studios in Los Angeles and was
produced by Paul Rothchild (noted for his work with
The Doors, Love, a.o.). The ARS NOVA album was
certainly ground-breaking for its use of
unconventional instrumentation and for taking
influences from the worlds of rock, ethnic and
classical music. One fan of the album was ROY WOOD
of British band THE MOVE (who would record a cover
of Ars Nova’s Fields of People on their 1970 album
Shazam!) ARS NOVA was issued in 1968 to much
critical acclaim, but the band’s line-up made it
difficult for the music to translate well on the
concert stage. Appearances opening for The Doors
failed to boost the band’s fortunes and the initial
line-up of the band broke up soon afterwards.
With Jonathan Raskin joining the band Rhinoceros,
Day and Pierson gathered together a new line-up
featuring Sam Brown (lead guitar), Joe Hunt (drums
and percussion), Art Koening (bass), Jimmy Owens
(trumpet) and Warren Bernhardt (keyboards). This
revamped version of Ars Nova would record their
final album, the equally imaginative SUNSHINE &
SHADOWS, for Atlantic Records in late 1968 in New
York City. The album release was inexplicably
delayed for nearly a year by Atlantic Records and
any momentum gained by further critical praise was
lost. Increasing management problems also took
their toll and Ars Nova disbanded soon after the
release of SUNSHINE & SHADOWS.
This two-disc set gathers together all the
recordings made by ARS NOVA for Elektra and
Atlantic and has been newly re-mastered from the
original first generation master tapes and features
an illustrated booklet with new essay.
