Socrates Drank the Conium, known also as Socrates, was a Greek rock band that formed in 1969 and achieved success in the 1970s. 

The band melded the unorthodox time signatures and orchestration of progressive rock and the intensity of blues and hard rock music, creating a unique sound that distinguished them from other Greek rock acts of that period. Outside Greece, Socrates is best known for "Phos", their 1976.

New Feelin' is the sixth studio album by American singer and actress Liza Minnelli, released on October 19, 1970, by A&M Records. It was her third and final studio album for the label. Recommended!

"The musicians involved in the recording of Liza Minnelli's album New Feelin' include the Muscle Shoals-based session musicians, known for their distinctive country-soul and R&B arrangements, which contributed to the album's twangy guitars, energetic brass sections, pulsating electric bass, and gospel-inspired backing vocals. The album was engineered by Mickey Buckins and Sonny Limbo, and the art direction was handled by Tom Wilkes.

Rex Kramer, who was the lead vocalist of The Bojangles and also dating Liza Minnelli at the time, served as the producer, arranger, and photographer for the album. The album features a blend of modern arrangements of classic songs from the Great American Songbook, recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, during the spring and summer of 1970."
