Friday Night Catnip: The Left Banke: The Left Bank Too

Yes, this is the band that gave us the hit "Walk Away Renee." The Left Banke Too is the second studio album by the 1960s baroque rock band The Left Banke, released on Smash Records in 1968. This is an obscure psychedelic classic with interesting instrumentation including strings, trumpet and oboe. I highly recommended fur catnip connoisseurs.

1. "Goodbye Holly" (0:00)
2. "There's Gonna Be a Storm" (2:55)
3. "Sing Little Bird Sing" (7:14)
4. "Nice to See You" (10:25)
5. "Give the Man a Hand" (13:06)
-
1. "Bryant Hotel" (16:01)
2. "Desirée" (19:27)
3. "Dark is the Bark" (22:10)
4. "In the Morning Light" (25:41)
5. "My Friend Today" (28:30)

My personal favorite is Desiree:

Everything returns again
Both the laughter and the rain
She is living somewhere far away
Still I ask her in my lonely way to stay

Desiree, Desiree
Now she's leaving

Desiree you know, how it hurts me
Living alone through all the years
Nothing can hold the tears in me

Everything remains the same
Yet she answers not her name
Still if I could look beyond these skies
Standing here again before my eyes I'd see

Desiree, Desiree
Now she's leaving

Desiree you know how it hurts me
Where do I run to is it real
Nothing but pain I feel for real

Desiree you know how it hurts me
Living alone through all the years
Nothing can hold the tears in me
Desiree

La la la
La la la
