It's getting too late for me to play the loud stuff (shhhh, the baby is sleeping), so I put on the album by ONE on Grunt from 72. Incomprehensible hippy gibberish!! But I love it. The singer pretends she is a trumpet and a flute!! At least I think she is a she.
The singer had the best name in all of rock, too. Are you ready for it: REALITY "D" BLIPCROTCH !!!

I wonder what the "D" stood for.

I kinda like this record.

Those first two Point Blank records are some good ole' rawk. They definitely have some awesome crunchy sounding guitars and lots of leads. You can see why Bill Ham signed them as they do have some ZZ tendencies in their sound.

this Mariani album perpetuum mobilefrom 1970 (feat Eric Johnson) totally rips.
insane guitar solos, great drumming, great lyrics about getting stoned and looking at the sky and stuff

This new Cherry Red box, We're An American Band: A Journey Through The USA Hard Rock Scene 1967-1973, is pretty good. I'm working on a lengthy review; all the usual suspects are represented, with one notable exception: nothing by the Amboy Dukes.

No Bob Seger System stuff, either.

do like a bit of this stonery stuff. Whatever its called. Still struggling to work out why revisionists have invented a year 1990 year zero for music that is rooted much earlier. Like a later garage where teens try the same process on harder heavier rock. & people with proven ability try to see what they can do with it.
I'm finally picking up on Japanese stuff I should have got a decade and a half ago. Other international stuff too, like zam rock basically taps into a very similar feel.
