Ellis and Lynch -There’s a Time There’s a Moment (1974)



The most delicate of folk groups featuring Ron and Nancy Ellis together with Michael and Collene Lynch. Their debut There’s A Time There’s A Moment is a first-class charmer that melts your heart with fragile harmonies overtop gentle acoustic guitar, piano and flute. Beautiful graceful melodies are lovingly expressed through songs like ‘Look At My Gifts’, ‘Jesus Heal Us’, ‘Song Of Ruth’, ‘Sweet Sweet Sound’ and the title track. ‘Taste And See’ has some nice acoustic guitar leads, while ‘Our Father’ is enriched by cello accompaniment. Catholic I’m assuming since one of the songs is ‘Hymn To Mary’. A wonderful example of stirring mellow acoustic music. Is that a tear forming in my eye? Nah, couldn’t be.    (The Archivist, 4th edition by Ken Scott).

Ellis & Lynch wrote great songs, and their live vocal sound was amazing. Their flute player, Mary Lowney, and their keyboard player, Allan Loucks, really added nice touches to the live performances.

Any chance you can add the complete Ellis & Lynch catalog? Michael Lynch has died, Ron Ellis has dementia, and there are no digital versions available from Raven Music (or anyone else that I could find online). I am afraid their music may vanish, never to be heard again.
