The Pozo-Seco Singers remain chiefly associated with Don Williams' early involvement before his rise to solo country prominence, even though their core style gravitated much more toward pop-folk than country. Formed as a Texas threesome in Corpus Christi, the ensemble grew out of the duo Strangers Two that Williams and Lofton Kline had already established; Susan Taylor's arrival completed the lineup and gave the group its name. Their cleanly executed coffeehouse folk relied on a careful mix of male and female leads and harmonies, resulting in a noticeably more commercial, pop-leaning echo of Ian & Sylvia. Lacking the countercultural credibility of Ian & Sylvia or Peter, Paul and Mary and steering clear of the overt mainstream polish associated with the Seekers, they nevertheless registered a pair of modest mid-'60s pop successes when both "I Can Make It with You" and "Look What You've Done" reached the Top 40. After issuing several albums on Columbia during the second half of the 1960s, the trio disbanded, allowing Williams to begin his country solo career.
