Collie Ryan // We're Gettin' By

Collie Ryan is a student of Theosophy who privately pressed three records in 1973. This project was funded by her friends at New Age Farms carrot and fresh juice company in Lompoc, California, and the records were distributed at shows at the Sun and Earth Health Food Store and Restaurant in Santa Barbara. The songs on these albums are mostly about the theosophist concepts of karma and reincarnation in its many aspects. Colllie completely dropped off the grid shortly after these records were made and lives in West Texas working as an artist, painting mandalas on hubcaps.
