Description
The self-titled and sole album by the American five-piece folk-rock group Truth was released on Impact Records in 1972, a division of Heart Warming Records. [In fact, there is another vocal group called Truth that released their self-titled debut album on Impact Records the very same year!]
These three girls and two guys have nothing to do with the same label’s large group with all the uniforms, horns, and stuff. With groovy mellow ooh-and-aah female/male harmonies over-top a delicate electric folk-rock base, this quaint little outfit emerges as a first-rate charmer. «Three In One», «He Lives And I Live», «What Is Life?», «Singin’ In The Morning» and «Jesus Came» all totally nail the vibe with their fragile sighing float-away electric ‘60s soft-rock grooves. For the more folk-rock side of the group, check out «You Must Be Born Again». Fans of softies-with-an-edge like We Five and The Sandpipers might want to give these folks a listen. Production is clean and simple, with just guitars (acoustic, electric, bass) and drums for backing – no keyboards, strings or horns. All original songs, a beat, even a faint plugged-in garage angle: it’s the sound all those over-produced “now generation” Youth For Christ groups missed. [Ken Scott, The Archivist, 4th edition]
