Herman's Hermits rock fuckin' HARD

Peter No-one has not passed away

ah, thanks for clearing that up!

Recognize the cover very well.

I've seen this one many times before years ago and didn't know til today what it was. Maybe it was at the local library.

We had a store in Toronto, Sam the Record Man, with a famous sale annex

My regret is not buying up the 70s Van Morrison albums they had up there for $6.99.

The vinyl copies of Knee Deep in the Hoopla can stay, though.

A couple Blaze standouts both written by three band members not named Peter Noone

"Moonshine Man": Somebody's spent some quality time with Revolver

"I Call Out Her Name": Somebody's spent some quality time with some Buck Owens singles

Is it Green Street Green that has them choogling before Creedence became established?

I kept hearing Blaze as a blueprint for the Stone Roses for ages when the Manchester scene was happening.

Got a copy for like 60p in like 1981. Played it a lot at the time. Got the Repertoire CD remaster when I got a chance.
Need to stick it on when I get home.

Well they were Mancs after all.

If there is actual choogling on that album who is doing it? John Paul Jones, Davey Graham…? Don’t imagine Derek Leckenbie with all due respect.

I meant Bobby Graham, sorry

Right, it's Moonshine Man not Green Street Green

…written by Leckenby and other Hermits so maybe they are the chooglers
