Description

Originally issued only in Canada, Timeless is an impossibly rare, but essential Sunshine Pop artifact that shows the band digging deeper into their sound, with touches of soul and country fusing with their trademark rich harmonies.

Just one month after the release of their debut, Eternity’s Children headed up to Bakersfield, CA, where they began tracking what would become their second and final LP, Timeless, this time recording with producer Gary Paxton, best known for the #1 hit, “Alley Oop” by the Hollywood Argyles. Decidedly more soulful than their debut – without losing the band’s trademark sweet, stacked-harmony sound – the LP sees Eternity’s Children joined by bluegrass and country rock icon Clarence White (The Byrds, The Kentucky Colonels), who participated not only as a guitarist, but also as a writer, co-authoring the album standout, “Nature’s Child” with Paxton’s wife Jan.

Unfortunately, Timeless was pulled from Tower’s U.S. release schedule for unknown reasons and issued only in an extremely limited pressing in 1969 on Capitol Canada’s 6000 series.

Impossibly out-of-print for years and never available outside of Canada, Timeless is newly reissued on LP and remastered for vinyl by Dan Hersch. The LP comes in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with liner notes by producer Steve Stanley that include remembrances from the band, and rare photos and memorabilia from their archive.
