2) Calliope: Albums: a) Steamed (1968) b) Calliope (1970).
From Seattle, the driving force behind this short-lived outfit was singer/songwriter Danny O'Keefe, who later had one or two Top 20 hits (including Magdalena). They made a bit of a splash locally, but like a lot of Seattle bands, they seemed much better live than on record. It seems that bands from Seattle during that period did not get very good support from their record companies... obviously things have changed since then! Calliope's first album is now a very minor collectable, and the second may have remained unissued. The Steamed album includes cover versions of Hello Hello (Lee Michaels), California Dreamin' (with a very good psychedelic guitar solo), Hound Dog, Jimmy Bell (a traditional number), Like A Rolling Stone (Dylan), Nadine (Chuck Berry) and four originals - two by Goldsmith and two by O'Keefe.
John Simpson, who was tragically killed in a plane crash in 1973, had previously played with Scott Strong in The Bumps and may also be the guy who played drums in Christopher. Prior to joining Calliope, Scott Strong also acted as their road manager. Paul Goldsmith had earlier been in Emergency Exit, Clyde Heaton in The Dimensions and Luther Rabb later played with Ballinjack.
3) This is mostly going to be about the Lansing, MI-based Calliope.
From Spendidezine.com: "There's definitely something to be said for spacy pop that gets your head nodding. The fifth album in ten years from this Michigan outfit does that, and much more. Calliope nuzzle contentedly against post-rock and dream-pop, and flirt with electronica, showing remarkable restraint and good taste in their dalliances with each."
From Wire: "loping, jazzy grooves with gently crooned vocals in loose, fluid songs with a hint of noisier, more experimental textures."
From AMG: "Michigan's Calliope deftly combine the retro-futurism of Tortoise and Stereolab with '60s folk psychedelia riding waves of warm sound into a jazzy pop wonderland...."
