Sage & Seer were a folk-pop-psych duo based in Denver, Colorado and consisted of Don Beckman (lead guitar, vocals) and David Rea (lead vocals, guitar).

Unusual item for a private press as it’s an ambitious and elaborate lite-psych effort that would have fit well on Epic or ABC. There are a few standout tracks, but all are filled with well-orchestrated string and horn sections. Influences are mainly British with obvious nods to 1967 Donovan and the Beatles.

In addition to this album, the duo also released three singles, one of them included the non-LP tracks “I Can’t Take You Home” and “Calling” All their recordings were released on the local Denver Stylist Records label. (Collectors Frenzy)
