The Hour Glass (October 1967, tracks 1-11) showcased a group far removed from its true being, with producer Dallas Smith adding layers of vocals and instrumentation to the group's basic track. Gregg Allman is far and away the star, though his songwriting capabilities are not on display as ten of the album's tracks are covers. It was a failure on the charts.
Power of Love (March 1968, tracks 12-23) showcased a group closer to its true being, with the group tackling both originals by Gregg Allman and songs written by songwriters from the Southern United States. A cover of The Beatles' "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)"- the only track not written by southerners- featured Duane Allman on electric sitar. The Hour Glass performed all of the instrumentation. Again produced by Dallas Smith, it too was a failure on the charts.
