Run Like a Deer

Description

Run Like a Deer, sub-titled PSALMS in the FOLK-ROCK style, is an album by the American folk-rock combo Paul Quinlan Trio, released on F.E.L. Records in 1967.

After two excellent folk LPs and an appearance on Praise The Lord In Many Voices, Part II, Paul Quinlan surfaced with a band and took aim at the “beat” sound or in his words “folk-rock psalms” – and man my feet are a-movin’! «O Praise The Lord» swings with incredible cheesy go-go organ, while the snappy ’60s pop of «Glory To God» and «God Arises» progresses with a cool beat and a touch of Beatles twang. Side two is more folk-oriented, performed in a trio format with much gusto, especially those Spanish-flavored tunes. A few songs are re-interpreted from earlier LPs. A superb LP (my fave from the boy) with a nice homemade feel, plus it’s one of the first American albums to step out into more rockin’ territory. Great! [Ken Scott, The Archivist, 4th edition]
