Don Patterson of One St. Stephen
talked with It's Psychedelic Baby magazine about the One St. Stephen album back in 2011, a testament to the longevity this legendary Columbus release has attained. Here is some of that interview:
IPB: If I understand this correctly One St. Stephen album was somehow a soundtrack for your film called The Devil’s Reservation? I would like to know how did you come together to do this album?
DP: I had written a script titled the DEVIL’S RESERVATION in 1974. While finalizing the script, mailing it off to The American Film Institute for a hopeful grant and waiting for their response — a group of musicians and I went into OWL studios to put together a 11 songs I had written (music and lyrics) and 1 song (music by Bill Blechschmid with my lyrics) for the soundtrack. I picked up the entire tab. We concentrated and recorded nine tunes in five days.
