Seatrain

Seatrain is an American roots fusion band formed in 1969, initially based in Marin County, California. The group consisted of flutist/bassist Andy Kulberg and drummer Roy Blumenfeld from the Blues Project, along with Jim Roberts, guitarist John Gregory, violinist Richard Greene, and saxophonist Don Kretmar. Seatrain's debut album, Sea Train, was released in 1969. The band underwent significant lineup changes in late 1970, with Blumenfeld, Gregory, and Kretmar being replaced by drummer Larry Atamanuik, keyboardist Lloyd Baskin, and guitarist Peter Rowan. Their second self-titled album, Seatrain, was released that year and included the single "13 Questions", which reached number 49 on Billboard's national chart in 1971 and number 25 in Canada. Produced by George Martin, this marked his first rock production since working with The Beatles. In September of the same year, Seatrain toured Great Britain for the first time as a support act for Traffic. Rowan and Greene left to form Muleskinner, while Roberts and Atamanuik joined Emmylou Harris' backing band. Kulberg and Baskin continued with guitarist Peter Walsh, keyboardist Bill Elliott, and drummer Julio Coronado, releasing their final album, Watch, in 1973 before disbanding.
