I've had some songs by Margo Guryan album Take A Picture stuck in my head for a week or two now. If I had to describe it, I'd say it's kind of like bummed-out sunshine pop.

Besides the amazing songwriting, I am a huge fan of the drum sound on this album. It's nice and roomy but kind of dry and thumpy at the same time. The drummer, Buddy Saltzman played on some pretty big hits from the 1960s.

I was very surprised to find out this album was recorded in 1968 for some reason. I think the combination of an aggressive drummer on a twee sounding album is something I associate with indie rock from the last couple decades and not the 1960s.
