The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation - Doctor Dunbar's Prescription (1969 UK Blues Psych)

AYNSLEY DUNBAR FAZIA UM BLUES COM PITADAS PSICODÉLICA DE PRIMEIRA LINHA!! GRANDE DISCO E BOA RARIDADE!! ALTAMENTE RECOMENDADO A BLUESEIROS E PSICODÉLICOS!! The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation's second album was much the same as their first, offering competent late-'60s British blues, given a slightly darker cast than was usual for the style via Victor Brox's somber vocals. Like their debut, it was dominated by original material, and as on its predecessor, the compositions were rather routine blues-rock numbers, though they benefited from arrangements by highly skilled players. The best of these tracks were the ones that utilized Brox's gloomy, almost gothic organ, if only because it made them stand out more among the company of the many similar bands recording in the prime of the British blues boom. Otherwise the main fare was straightforward blues-rock that was well played, but rather average and forgettable, the most distinguished ingredient being Dunbar's hard-hit...

EXUMA - First Album (1970 Caribbean Ultra Rare Rock Psych Folk Tribal)

MUITO LOUCA ESTA BANDA QUE FAZIA UMA MISTURA PRA LÁ DE MALUCA!! GUITARRAS ACUSTICAS, BONGOS, TAMBORES E RITMOS TRIBAIS FAZEM DESTE DISCO UMA OBRA PRIMA DA PSICODELIA!! O SOM DOS CARAS É DIFÍCIL DE CLASSIFICAR O ESTILO, POIS ERA UMA MISTURA TUDO JUNTO, MAS NÃO INDIVIDUAL, O REGGAE, MUSICA AFRICANA, FOLK E OUTROS RITMOS CARIBENHOS!! NÃO TEM UMA DEFINIÇÃO EXATA!! SE QUIZESSE COMPARAR DARIA PRA DIZER QUE, AO MENOS SE APROXIMA DAQUILO QUE FÊZ CAPTAIN BEEFHEART NO SEU ALBUM "TROUT MASK REPLICA" OU AINDA O QUE FÊZ DR. JOHN NO SEU ALBUM "DR. JOHN'S GUMBO"!! VENENO SUPER RARO E DIFERENTE DE TUDO QUE JÁ SE ESCUTOU!! EXPERIMENTE ESTE VENENO COM EFEITOS TOTALMENTE DIFERENTES E INESPERADOS!! ALBUM REVIEW Exuma's debut album was a real odd piece of work, even by the standards of the late '60s and early '70s, when major labels went further out on a limb to throw weird stuff at the public to see what would stick than they ever had before or have since. Rough...

REPOST: Falcons - Fever (1970 France Hard Rock Bluesy)

RARITY ALBUM!! DISCO RARÍSSIMO DE UMA BANDA QUE TINHA MEMBROS DA ESCÓCIA E DA FRANÇA MAS QUE ORIGINALMENTE PODE SER CONSIDERADA UMA BANDA FRANCESA, POIS FOI LÁ QUE NASCEU AINDA NO ANO 1963!! NÃO SE TEM MUITA INFORMAÇÃO DOS CARAS A NÃO SER EM FRANCÊS E ESSA EM INGLÊS ABAIXO!! SEI DIZER QUE ERA UMA EXCELENTE BANDA QUE FAZIA PODEROSOS COVERS NUMA MISTURA DE HARD ROCK E PITADAS BLUES!! A PRIMEIRA FAIXA "FEVER" É UMA OBRA COM UM ORGAN HAMMOND TRABALHANDO DE FUNDO MUITO LOUCO!! VERSÃO PARA "ON BROADWAY" A MELHOR QUE JÁ OUVI!! A VERSÃO DE "DON'T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD" CERTAMENTE ESTÁ ENTRE AS MELHORES, POIS ELES TRANSFORMARAM ESTA MÚSICA POP NUM PSYCH BLUESY QUE FICOU DUCARALHO!! O VOCALISTA TINHA UMA VOZ ROUCA E PODEROSA E DAVA UM TOQUE ESPECIAL NAS CANÇÕES!! VALE A PENA CONFERIR MAIS ESTA RARIDADE QUE O BLOG OFERECE!! VENENO BOM E RECOMENDADO!! Largely a top twenty covers band, originally modelled on The Shadows, The Falcons were formed in the Summer ...

Creation Of Sunlight - Creation Of Sunlight (1968 USA Psycho)

BANDA MUITO LEGAL DA CALIFORNIA QUE FAZIA UM SOM AO ESTILO DAS GRANDES BANDAS PSICODÉLICAS CALIFORNIANAS DOS ANOS 60 COM UM ORGAN CORRENDO SOLTO E UMA GUITARRA FUZZY TRADICIONAL!! EXCELENTE ALBUM E RECOMENDADO AOS AMANTES DO ESTILO!! VENENO DO BOM E ALTAMENTE FLOWER POWER!! What a unique band was Sunlight (a.k.a. Creation of Sunlight) in their day! There really was nothing else in 1968 that could match their particular combination of psychedelic elements (with the occasional progressive tendency),intelligent, lyrical songs, great vocals, and a sunshine pop sensibility (which all too aptly suits their name, does it not?), taken all together, you have a masterpiece that sold millions, right? Well, not exactly. Few would disagree that this is a great album. So, what happened? Nearly all of the members of the band – Sunlight, not Creation of Sunlight, as most people have come to know the album – were from the environs of Long Beach, California. Gary Young was the exception to this rule,...

REPOST: Virus - Revelation (1971 German Rock Prog)

VENENO DESTA BOA BANDA ALEMÃ QUE FAZIA UM SOM AO ESTILO ROCK PROGRESSIVO BEM LEGAL E VIAJANTE COM O USO EXTENSIVO DE TECLADOS E FLAUTAS!! NA VERDADE É UM HARD BEM AO ESTILO ALEMÃO MAS COM FORTES INFLUÊNCIAS ERUDITAS E PSICODÉLICAS!! ALTAMENTE RECOMENDADO!!! With "Revelation", the young heavy psychedelic rock group Virus produced one of best early progressive albums in Germany; indeed, it was a revelation! Their style was strongly influenced by Pink Floyd (David Gilmour) and Deep Purple (Jon Lord). The album had five long tracks. The title track included an instrumental classical adaptation of the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black". Their instrumental work was even better on the 12 minute "Endless Game". The varied album also had a more hard-rocking track named "Burning Candle". Finally, "Nur Noch Zwei Lichtiahre" guided the listener into deep space, much like a mellow and matured "Interstellar Overdrive". The album was recor...

Freedom - Is More Than A Word (1972 UK Har Rock Progressive)

MAIS UM ALBUM E O ULTIMO DA CARREIRA DESTA EXCELENTE BANDA INGLESA COMANDADA POR "BOBBY HARRISON" EX-BATERISTA DO PROCOL HARUM EM SUA PRIMEIRA FORMAÇÃO!! COMO SEMPRE O DISCO MANTÉM TODA A QUALIDADE DA BANDA!! A spinoff of Procol Harum, Freedom was formed by guitarist Ray Royer and drummer Bobby Harrison. Both of them were in Procol Harum's lineup at the outset for their debut, "A Whiter Shade of Pale," single, but were ousted almost immediately when Procol singer, Gary Brooker, enlisted his former bandmates from the Paramounts, Robin Trower and Barry Wilson, as replacements. Freedom's early sound, perhaps unsurprisingly, echoed Procol Harum's in its prominent use of organ and piano, as well as heavy rock guitar, and like Procol Harum's early records, captured late British psychedelia as it was starting to inch towards progressive rock. Freedom wasn't a Procol Harum clone, though, with a somewhat poppier take on psychedelia that was clos...

FREEDOM - Freedom (1970 UK Heavy Progressive)

MAIS UMA POSTAGEM DESTA EXCELENTE BANDA INGLESA COMANDADA POR BOBBY HARRISON EX-BATERISTA DA BANDA PROCOL HARUM !! A QUALIDADE SE MANTÉM EM TODOS OS DISCOS!! Freedom's third album, originally issued in 1970 and reissued on CD in 2000 by Angel Air, is dire period British hard rock in the power trio format. While there's occasional laid-back reflective songwriting amongst the largely original material, its lumpy rhythms and unexceptional melodies make it hard to say much of anything about it, really, except to note that it's easy to envision them as a support act on any number of shows and tours of the era. The numbers emphasizing vocal harmonies are at least inoffensive (if boring), which can't be said of their outings into boogie blues-rock and proto-metal (as on the title track) that really grate. It might have been a cool idea in 1970 to cover the Standells' "Dirty Water," which wasn't a hit in Britain and wasn't yet fashionable as a ga...

IOTA - Iota - (1969 Texas US Rock Psych Acid Rock)

HIGH RARITY!! RARIDADE INCONTESTÁVEL E UMA BANDA EXCELENTE VINDA DO TEXAS!! OS CARAS FAZIAM UM SOM QUE MISTURAVA PSICODELIA E ACID ROCK COM PITADAS BLUESY DE PRIMEIRA LINHA, BEM TRABALHADO E COM MÚSICOS COMPETENTES!! ALTISSIMAMENTE RECOMENDADO!! UM DE MEUS DISCOS PREFERIDOS, PRINCIPALMENTE A FAIXA Nº 5, E CERTAMENTE UM DOS MELHORES DO GÊNERO!! Iota was a Northeast El Paso band. On the west side of Mt. Franklin there was hardly anyone that knew this surprising band. So I ran across them by chance. I had been recording Wailing Wall; Iron Butterfly (later to be called Lode Star) and frankly I didn’t give much thought to this loose band from the Northeast. They had a good singer who played bass and a commercial type guitar player. Iota was different in that they had an organ player. I listened to them and decided to record them in spite of the fact that I was interested in the careers of these other bands. Bill Taylor Sparks was getting ready to move to Memphis, TN and our studio was so...

Rex Holman - Here in the Land of Victory (1970 USA Folk Psychedelia)

EXCELENTE E RARO DISCO FOLK PSYCH ROCK AO ESTILO DE TIM BUCKLEY!! REX HOLMAN TINHA UM VOCAL TRANQUILO QUE SOAVA COMO UM SOPRO DO VENTO EM UMA COLINA!! UM SOM ACUSTICO COM SÍTARA, TABLAS E OUTROS INSTRUMENTOS EXÓTICOS!! MÚSICA DE EXCELENTE QUALIDADE E VENENO DE AÇÃO RELAXANTE!! UM INCENSO, UM BOM VINHO...VIAGEM... Reissue on CD of ultra-rare U.S. psych/folk album originally from 1970 in the style of Tim Buckley. Probably from California. Here In The Land Of Victory is a very good folk psych album, similar to the better tracks on the Brent Titcomb LP, and sounding a lot like Tim Buckley in parts. Holman has a mid-range quavery voice, and the songs are all very fragile, floating acoustic type of songs, with sitar, tablas and other exotic instrumentation scattered liberally throughout. The production credits "Schmitt-Douglas", and the album was recorded at Dimension Sounds, which may have been an L.A. Studio. The album cover is a very psychedelic montage featuring Holman super-...

High Treason - High Treason (1969 US Psych Bluesy Rock)

ÓTIMA BANDA AMERICANA QUE FAZIA UM SOM QUE DARIA PRA DEFINIR COMO BLUESY JAZZ PSICODÉLICO!! COMO DICA COMECE ESCUTANDO A FAIXA 3 QUE É UMA VERSÃO MUITO BEM FEITA DA CANÇÃO DE BOB DYLAN "SUBTERRANEAN HOMESICK BLUES" E CONFIRA QUE OBRA OS CARAS FIZERAM E TAMBÉM O ÓTIMO VOCAL DA FEMEA VOCALISTA "MARCI RAUER"!! QUE PODER!! A BANDA TINHA UM ESTILO MEIO PARECIDO COM "JEFFERSON AIRPLANE" E "IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY"!! Somewhat bizarre concept of a loungy nightclub jazz band tackling the mid-era Airplane sound and coming off a lot different than they had intended, I would think. Lady vocalist makes up for her lack of Grace by yelling at the top of her lungs, while cocktail organist and supperclub guitarist "jam" on long tracks, including an unsuccessful Dylan cover. Didn't like this much though others may find some appealing angles on it. Several of the musicians also played with Perry Leopold. [PL] "Yes, that's not a replication ...

Time - Before There Was (USA 1968 Psycho)

BOM PSICODELISMO!!! FUZZ GUITARS, FLAUTAS, PERCUSSÃO, ORGAN, HARMONIA, VIAGENS E EFEITOS!!! TUDO QUE UM BOM SOM PSYCH PRECISA!!! É ISSO!!! This previously unreleased psych album was recorded in 1968 in Toronto Canada and is a revelation from start to finish. Classic 1968 psych with eastern themes, rock and folk all whirled up in a psych mincer to give it that special late '60's US/Canadian psych flavour. The founder of the band studied in the same class as Jim Cuomo from The Spoils Of War. The album is packed with harpsichord, flutes, percussion, heavy fuzz guitar and weird effects, wrapping neatly around lysergic vocals. The band moved to New York a year later and evolved into Think Dog. Track Listings 1. A Song for You 2. Kemp's Jig 3. Introductory Lines 4. Sad Benjamin 5. Lily Has a Rose 6. At Shadow's Eye 7. Green Fields 8. Waking 9. Ma's Pan 10. Dover Beach 11. Elin Experience http://rapidshare.com/files/160922594/Time_Venenos.rar

Panama Limited - Indian Summer (1970 UK Prog Folk Psych Bluesy)

GRANDÍSSIMO, RARO E VENENO SEM CONTRA-INDICAÇÃO!! ESTE DISCO TEM UM CARÁTER TODO PRÓPRIO E PARTICULAR QUE MUITOS DEFINEM COMO PROGRESSIVO!! EU NÃO DEFINIRIA ASSIM, DIRIA QUE SE APROXIMA DE UM ESTILO MAIS PARA UM PROGRESSIVO BLUES EXPERIMENTAL, PSICODÉLICO E COM PITADAS FOLK!! A BELA VOCALISTA "ANNE MATHEWS" DAVA UM TOQUE TODO ESPECIAL COM SEU VOCAL HARMONIOSO E TOCANDO CRAVO E PERCUSSÃO!! UM DISCO IMPERDÍVEL E ALTAMENTE RECOMENDADO!!! After the release of Panama Limiteds Jug Band eponymous lp Liz Hanns left the band and the music changed somewhat from the traditional raggedy jug blues along with a shortening of the band name. The first lp isnt that bad, its just tradtional blues. Liz Hanns vocals are kind of enjoyable though adding something quirky but the lps strongest point is its ultraviolet blue green photo negative on a traintrack psych sleeve with Granada TV 69 typeface. 'Indian Summer' has a character all of its own,it has more of a prog experimental blues si...

Krokodil - An Invisible World Revealed (1971 Swiss Prog Rock Psych)

SEGUINDO A SEQUENCIA DE POSTS DESTA EXCELENTE BANDA SUÍÇA!! TODOS SÃO ALTAMENTE RECOMENDADOS!! E VEM MAIS POR AÍ!! Krokodil's third album is reputedly their only progressive effort, and probably the only one worth hearing. You can tell that they're coming from a folk background, to which they've added some wigged-out psych and what sounds like a Mark II Mellotron which figures, given the date. Some of the material slightly outstays its welcome, if I'm going to be honest, but the overall vibe is pretty good, with the folk stuff colliding head-on with some dark, distorted guitar work straight out of the Edgar Broughton Band songbook. Probably. As for Terry Stevens' 'Tron, Lady Of Attraction has a few brass chords, with some superb pitchbend work, far smoother than even the best set-up M400, plus a quick burst of strings, while Green Fly has some nice upfront strings. The druggy Odyssey In Om is the album's 'Tron highlight, though, with a rich, almost unac...

REPOST: Kahvas Jute - Wide Open (1971 Australian Prog Rock Psych Jazz)

Banda Australiana e mais uma banda setentista que aproveitou o embalo da onda Hard Rock para poder fazer seu som, porém, este quinteto é muito, mas muito mais que isso!! Com um som agradável e pitadas psicodélicas, esta banda possui atitude suficiente para se colocar entre as grandes aparições do rock australiano da época. A banda era composta pelo baixista Bob Daisley e pelos guitarristas Dennis Wilson e Tim Gaze. Na bateria, Dannie Davidson, e fechando o timasso com o vocalista Scott Maxey. Este é o único álbum da banda e mostra um Rock com belas harmonias entre vocal, guitarra e violão!! Após o final da banda, os músicos egressaram para diversos outros grupos australianos de pouco reconhecimento, fato que só não ocorreu com o baixista Bob Daisley, que se radicou na Inglaterra e tocou com o Rainbow (no álbum Rising), Gary Moore Band, Widowmaker e com Ozzy Osbourne no disco "Blizzard of Oz", alcançando a fama e o reconhecimento merecido. VENENO AUSTRALIANO DO BOM E RARO...
