Dory Previn – Reflections In A Mud Puddle / Taps Tremors And Time Steps (1971)

"Reflections In A Mud Puddle / Taps Tremors And Time Steps" is a unique conceptual, double-disc (on a single record) third studio album by American poet, singer, and singer-songwriter Dory Previn, released in 1971 on Mediarts Records (later reissued by United Artists Records).

On this album, Previn distinguished herself not only as a folk singer, but also as a brilliant lyricist and novelist, whose psychological depth has often been compared by critics to the prose of Sylvia Plath. The album is recognized as a masterpiece of the confessional genre of the 1970s, exerting a colossal influence on subsequent generations of independent art-pop and folk artists (from Kate Bush to Fiona Apple).
