B.C. Williamson - The Official Website

 
 
Today we remember one of the saddest days for B.C. supporters: the day when he finally decided to stop making his new album "FRoWN". B.C. had intended to release a ground-breaking, heavily produced masterpiece soon after recording the album in late 1969. However, he was beaten to the post by Barbra Streisand's pioneering "What About Today?" album. His spirit broken by the Generation's Soundtrack, B.C. stopped the production of his album just short of completion, commenting "Barbra got there first". B.C.'s increasing drug intake and growing paranoia had stopped the album from ever being released, along with its 10-minute rock opera, "The Story Of Catman Parker," an answer to The Who's revelatory "Tommy."  B.C. even went as far as to attempt to set fire to the original tapes. To this day, alternative masters have never been recovered, and FRoWN has been lost.
