THE EIGHTH DAY - ON THE EIGHTH DAY, 1968




I've been listening to a few of the Fading Yellow comps pretty consistently all year and doing so have been opened up to a wealth of incredible records.  Vol. 7 of the series kicks off with a highlight, 'Building With A Steeple' by the Eighth Day who recorded a sole album in '67-'68.  I was lucky enough to find a crispy copy in a local shop today on the last record outing of the year.  The rest of the album follows in similar fashion to 'Building With A Steeple' (albeit some tracks are 'fluffier' than others) and is packed with sunshine harmonies from start to finish.    

An in depth look into the history of The Eighth Day can be found here.
