Review: Homer's only album, Grown in U.S.A., is a notable entry in the realm of Texas psychedelic and hard rock. Originally released in 1970 as a private pressing, this record showcases the band's unique blend of rural psychedelic rock with early progressive elements. The album features impressive dual guitar work, melodic vocals, and occasional mellotron, all encased in a visually striking hard cardboard sleeve with original artwork, OBI strip and in this case, purple vinyl to fully compliment the vibrant colours. The album's eclecticism is evident with the music occasionally echoes early 70s British progressive rock through its multi-layered compositions and dynamic instrumentation, while also integrating country and folk influences, including steel guitar.
