From his emergence in the mid-'60s as an acoustic folk artist to his enduring body of psychadelic pop rock anthems, Donovan Leitch fully embraced the wide-eyed optimism of the flower-power movement. His ethereal, ornate songs radiated a mystical beauty and childlike wonder. His recordings remain the quintessential artifacts of the '60s and '70s, capturing the peace-and-love idealism of their time to perfection with hits such as "Cath The Wind," "Colours," "Mellow Yellow," "Sunshine Superman," "Atlantis" and "Wear Your Love Like Heaven."

He is one of the great songwriters of the last century whose place in folk music is secured by his hit songs, awards and the admiration of fans and fellow musicians around the globe. That these fans still enjoy his work is a testament to the quality of his recent work and to the enduring power of modern standards like "The Last Thing on My Mind," "Ramblin' Boy," " Bottle of Wine" and "The Marvelous Toy."
