You beat me to it, boss! Amazing band from my hometown of Fort Worth. Bloodrock 2 has the song D.O.A. on it. The ambulance you hear in the background is the one my dad rode as a young paramedic.
Those Neil Merryweather LPs are killer. I would have described it as glam/hard rock, but the music speaks for itself. Found sealed cut-out copies a couple years ago for cheap.
Cool stuff! Lots of new stuff to keep an eye out for! I would suggest Medusa’s Trapeze and Quartermass’s Quartermass. That last one might be more prog than classic rock. It would be cool if you did a video like this for prog rock
Also, if you like pre-AC/DC AC/DC, check out Marcus Hook Roll Band... you probably have already, but worth mentioning. It's Malcom and Angus's first band and I believe Vanda and George Young produced it. SOLID band with lots and lots of AC/DC origin in them. Good stuff!
Dudeeee... I just saw that box with the blue face on your fb story!!! What the heck was that? the music on the background blew my mind, I even called the shop see if you were around to ask you! Greets from a Cuban in Amsterdam !
Budgie's third album "Never Turn Your Back on a Friend" is one of the best hard rock records ever to me, and not just because of "Breadfan", the opening track. BTW, their first two albums were produved by Rodger Bain, the same guy who produced Black Sabbath''s first three albums. And Cactus was one of Van Halen's strongest influences (you might find something familiar in the intro for "Let Me Swim").
Budgie's "In for the Kill" is one of the heaviest albums ever recorded onto analog tape. So heavy that there isn't enough oxide on the tape to properly reproduce it's heaviness. When the kick-bass drum and bass guitar both hit at the beginning of the title track, you can hear the recording heads vibrate slightly. Pretty crazy honestly.
Grand Funk are cheap heat 🔥🔥🔥and you are correct the live album hits hard, I would add in some Uriah Heep, Jo Jo Gunne, and Atomic Rooster to the 70’s rock albums also easily found
Great choices. I bought Armageddon back in 1974 or '75 when it came out. Still a favorite. Budgie too. Taste with Rory I got in the cut-out bin for a buck 50 years ago & Neil Merriweather Space Rangers. Check out Tucky Buzzard & Michael Finnely--good stuff.
Hi Dillon - check out the English band "Bevis Frond" - Nick Saloman is the main man. Heavy, lots of guitar. Start with the album "New River Head" and go from there - you wont be disappointed. Cya Doug
How about some Classic Albums from a country , un pais , south of the border with once enough folks looking just like you Noble whom You sure Have Missed!?.
Great to see you giving Cactus some love. So neglected. Jim McCarty, along with Terry Kath, are two of the seriously underrated guitarists in history. And that Bogert/Appice rhythm section. As good as it gets.
Brilliant as always! Stepson, Charlee and Neil Merryweather been on my wants list for ever....but that's the UK drawback when looking for US music! Bux and Wool both new to me. I have the other 15 although some are re issues! I saw Budgie several times between 75-81 ish. On one tour they used a second guitarist live (they were a power trio) and it was the heaviest gig I have ever heard! I saw Geordie as support to someone 76ish. Paul Kossoff (and Simon Kirke, drummer of Free) had both left Black Cat Bones before they recorded their only album but you get Rod Price (later of Foghat) on guitar! BCB morphed in to Leafhound and their Growers of Mushrooms album is a stone cold 70s hard rock classic and originals are damned expensive now! Keep up the great work!
I have been looking for any terry reid this side of the pound. I can never find any. As for that era i would have choosen lord sutch and heavy friends. Top choices though. I guess i have some listening to do. Thanks for the tips. Never heard of bux and fear itself.
Supposedly, Jimi Hendrix was once asked what it was like to be the greatest guitar player in the world. His reply was I don't know, go ask Rory Gallagher.
New to your channel. I’m 65 I’m obsessed with classic rock. Your collection is amazing. Do you watch Rick Beato? Or Professor of rock? Two of my favorite channels.
Wonderful video. I'm Brazilian and here's a band from the 70s with just one album called O Peso - In search of lost time (1975).It's really worth listening to.
Instant like from me when you mention Paul Kossoff. Found and bought a copy of that record this weekend at a record shop for £10. Tuesday morning is truly underrated and the copy I found still was in the shrink and looks to never have been played, crazy!
@noblerecords I can't remember how many times I saw them, but it was a bunch. Its a crime that they are not in the Hall of Fame. Grand Funk ruled in those days.
100% missed that Jesse Davis record indeed! Thanks, Dillon! Incredible record indeed (just picked up a copy of it yesterday). I'm not particularly a blues rock guy, but this record really has the goods and it's got the soul. The backup singer lineup is also crazy. Massive crew there and just a record the goes deeper and deeper with each track. Damn!
👿🔱😈.. I always find new bands I've never heard of when I watch your videos thank you for that... budget of me sounds like Geddy Lee mixed with Black Sabbath..killer band... your videos also showed me two bands I really dig necromandus and power of Zeus I jam to them all the time..
Lots of new stuff to listen to as always. "Armageddon" is a fantastic album. I got one thanks to you. Someone should get that copy at your store! Great record!

SO MANY others. Based on the stuff you listen to, I'd guess you've heard of most/all of these, but thought if I threw enough darts one might stick. My apologies if you've already mentioned some of these on the channel. Thanks for all your hard digging!!
An alphabetical list of all bands mentioned... Armageddon; BANG; Budgie; Bull Angus; Bux; Cactus; Charlee; Dust; Elf (Ronnie James Dio lead singer); Fear Itself - Ellen McIIwaine singer; Freedom; Geordie (Bryan Johnson before AC/DC); Grand Funk (all early stuff!!!); Jesse “Ed” Davis; Kossoff - Back Street Crawler - Paul Kossoff guitar; Neil Merryweather - Kryptonite and Space Rangers; Paul Pena; Sir Lord Baltimore; Stark Naked; Stepson; Taste (guitar by Rory Gallagher); Terry Reid - Seed of Memory; Three Man Army; Ultimate Spinach; Velvert Turner Group; Wool. Commercial Break Re-issue plug Stonewall, Magic Ship, Brotherhood of Peace - Cuttin’ Loose, Gary del Vecchio - Buzzin’, Wara - El Inca.
Thanks, Cactus is one of my favorites. The drummer - Carmine Appice kills it on Feel So Good. Their third album- Restrictions is another. Freedom is also fantastic and I like their other albums as well. Early Grand Funk is the real deal especially On Time. The band - Flash first album has got some of the best guitar work!
Dylan, one from the 80's that sounds right out 60's complete with didgeridoo! Liquid Jesus Pour in the Sky. The singer sounds like Cher on acid, lol. Killer fn album!
Bloody hell.... that Paul Pena album is gold... so accomplished sounding too for a debut. Very cool to also learn he wrote the song 'Jet Airliner' which became a major hit for the Steve Miller Band in 1977. Thanks for the tips sir.
Paul Pena is certainly a fascinating musician as even though he was a killer rocker, he gained some notoriety as a Tuvan throat singer and created an interesting combination of blues and Tuvan throat singing
Ritchie Blackmore stole the entire Elf band for the first Rainbow album (minus the guitarist of course named David Feinstein,that's another story). Have all the Elf albums I don't think they're that heavy,too much honky tonk for me.
I'm not sure where the Jimi Hendrix said go ask for Rory Gallagher could have I have heard that Jimmy Page thought Rory Gallagher was the best guitarist that he knew of and I did hear that Jimi Hendrix had said that Billy Gibson of ZZ Top what's the best up-and-coming American guitarist he had heard after playing in Texas
no Free fan has missed "Back Street Crawler". I was shocked at how solid it was because Kossoff's songwriting contributions to Free seemed few and far between. Maybe you've missed the more obscure "Kossoff Kirke Tetsu and Rabbit". The music is great but the vocals are so bad they make me wanna hurl.
Snagged a sealed Sir Lord Baltimore / Kingdom Come album in a two for a dollar bin in the early 70's. It's got scalded ape energy, some of the most wild and depraved drumming and about rawest and nastiest guitar ever recorded. Armageddon and the 1st two Budgie records smoke too.
You make me feel like I've been living under a rock for 50 years. Never heard of anything you showed. I turned my back on Rock in the early 1970s. I just didn't like what I was hearing, went to classical (and some jazz) and never looked back (except toward the 1960s - Beatles, Stones, etc). That is, until now, where I've been getting into Green Day and Boston. Maybe I'll explore further and look back at all the good stuff that's passed and I've missed.
Great vid! Two thirds of Cactus Tim Bogert and Carmine Appice joined Jeff Beck who I saw together in the early 70’s. Paul Pena wrote Jet airliner covered by Steve Miller and Terry “Superlungs” Reid was offered the singer job by Jimmy Page before Plant. Thanks Dylan
Re Paul Kossoff’s Backstreet Crawler, when I was a kid (in the UK) Paul’s dad, who was a well regarded actor on his own right, would tour schools with an anti drugs message (Paul died from an overdose). I remember him reading out the lyrics to the song Backstreet Crawler like poetry, because it was about Paul’s struggles with drugs. A sad loss and a great guitarist.
Budgie were a great band I love all their mca albums and I swear next summer I will be ordering from you the UK is so expensive so there's my new years resolution I'm due some money next year so it will happen as long as I don't die
There's a band called Sorcery with an album called "Sinister Soldiers" that would fit in nicely in this list! Super ahead-of-it's-time HEAVY and hard 70s rock. Man that is awesome you're able to do re-releases for people who can't find those long out of print gems! Hats off to you fellow music lover! 🤝
Ultimate Spinach IS great. I like their second album the best. Also pretty funny story how they came up with their name (probably not that surprising tho). I always find their records in the wild but have yet to find a clean one.
Great list here, especially one that you showed Freedom and Taste, check out a band called High Tide - Sea Shanties. a heavy progressive jazz fusion rock album, it's excellent!!
I'd highly recommend the first two albums by Ballin' Jack. The first album is self titled and the second album is titled "Buzzard Luck." I saw them open for Jimi Hendrix and they were awesome. Hard to pin em down, but the were a west coast band, so theres some of that, but also have horns like Blood SweT & Tears. Give em a listen here on RUclips and let me know what you think.
Love that Jesse Davis. Saw him playing with Taj Mahal back in 1970. Bought his LP's as they were released. If you have not heard it yet, Taj's new LP Savoy is great!
When you showed Bang! I looked for my copy behind me (Italian pressing for some reason) and had Baker Gurvitz Army in my hand when you showed Three Man Army. Geordie: “Wey aye man”.
I'm sulking about stepson. I listened to it, loved it then discovered it ain't available on CD. I normally check first to avoid frustration but slipped-up on that one. An amazing album though for sure.
There are stepson CDs but not many around. Here’s one with alternate tracks… www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/stepson-the-lost-tapes-1972-1974-lp/ROCK.048LP.html
In the same vein as Paul Pena and Jesse Davis, I highly recommend Sand's Self-Titled double lp. It's a weird one cause it was designed to play on those stackable players so Side 4 is just blank. It's a really beautiful confluence of America-style harmonies, Mojave desert road trip interlacing guitars and just warm vibes. The cover is literally a sandwich. Been a loved one for a long while in my collection.
Did I say he was only in Elf and Black Sabbath? Was I supposed to tell his entire life story? Of course I know he was in rainbow. Pretty foolish comment if you ask me.
Ya that WOOL album ,pretty fucking funky. Personally I wish they focused just a little more on that,because they have groove. We do have a lot of fuzz and smoky purply tones on it to bring the go-go dancers to life. Decent record,has some filler. Thanks for sharing it.
Dust - Hard Attack is one of my favorites. The guy who did the art work (Frank Frazetta) also did the artwork for the Molly Hatchet and Wolfmother albums, among others.
Joe Droukas - Goodbye Joe Drake is such a weird and cool album The Frost - Frost Music The Godz - The Godz Kingfish - Live n Kickin’ The Mops are a Japanese psychedelic band that are amazing. Along with Flower Travelin’ Band
These are great albums for sure, thanks for this presentation it helps me a lot. I believe that there are some rock albums you might interest. 1) Doctor Feelgood - Something To Take Up Time* 2) Ellison - Ellison* 3) The Exkarsions - The Exkarsions* 4) The Zoo - Presents Chocolate Moose* 5) Jeremy & The Satyrs - S/T* 6) SPOT - SPOT* 7) Abel - Please World* *You can listen to them in my channel.

Just swooped in bought Majic Ship and Stonewall while they were still there 🤘🏻
This is why I’m subbed to your channel, finding stuff I have not heard of yet.
Great video as always! I think Bloodrock's first few albums fit this category as well, especiall their first record
Yes I agree!
You beat me to it, boss! Amazing band from my hometown of Fort Worth. Bloodrock 2 has the song D.O.A. on it. The ambulance you hear in the background is the one my dad rode as a young paramedic.
Those Neil Merryweather LPs are killer. I would have described it as glam/hard rock, but the music speaks for itself. Found sealed cut-out copies a couple years ago for cheap.
Yeah you wouldn’t be wrong. Thanks for watching! 🙏
Cool stuff! Lots of new stuff to keep an eye out for! I would suggest Medusa’s Trapeze and Quartermass’s Quartermass. That last one might be more prog than classic rock. It would be cool if you did a video like this for prog rock
Also, if you like pre-AC/DC AC/DC, check out Marcus Hook Roll Band... you probably have already, but worth mentioning. It's Malcom and Angus's first band and I believe Vanda and George Young produced it. SOLID band with lots and lots of AC/DC origin in them. Good stuff!
Dudeeee... I just saw that box with the blue face on your fb story!!! What the heck was that? the music on the background blew my mind, I even called the shop see if you were around to ask you! Greets from a Cuban in Amsterdam !
Dillon, Truth and Janey out of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, had some good rocking ass kicking stuff!
Here we go again , Dillon ! Lots of ”new” stuff to listen to. Love it.
Budgie's third album "Never Turn Your Back on a Friend" is one of the best hard rock records ever to me, and not just because of "Breadfan", the opening track. BTW, their first two albums were produved by Rodger Bain, the same guy who produced Black Sabbath''s first three albums.
And Cactus was one of Van Halen's strongest influences (you might find something familiar in the intro for "Let Me Swim").
Was able to see cactus wish l could have seen budgie
Budgie's "In for the Kill" is one of the heaviest albums ever recorded onto analog tape. So heavy that there isn't enough oxide on the tape to properly reproduce it's heaviness. When the kick-bass drum and bass guitar both hit at the beginning of the title track, you can hear the recording heads vibrate slightly. Pretty crazy honestly.
Wow.
I had "Armageddon" when it came out... (I'm geezin")
Long gone but I remember "Buzzard" ... killer riff.
Happy holidays.
Peace on earth.
Atomic Rooster, its members from the late 60's Arthur Brown backing band.
Yes! I almost put them on the list too!
Yes on Budgie, Relf is the weak link on Armeggedon, Elf of course, Cactus, Terry Reid, and Taste. The rest I'll have to check out.
Grand Funk are cheap heat 🔥🔥🔥and you are correct the live album hits hard, I would add in some Uriah Heep, Jo Jo Gunne, and Atomic Rooster to the 70’s rock albums also easily found
20:35 I have Armageddon and Budgie's If I were Brittania I'd waive the Rules. And two Cactus records as well.
Dude, look up Magic Pie, The Suffering Joy, just epic.
I am sure you knew this but did not mention. The drummer for Dust was Marky Ramone.
Yes! I did know that. Forgot to mention it!
Merry Xmas friend
Great choices. I bought Armageddon back in 1974 or '75 when it came out. Still a favorite. Budgie too. Taste with Rory I got in the cut-out bin for a buck 50 years ago & Neil Merriweather Space Rangers. Check out Tucky Buzzard & Michael Finnely--good stuff.
Wool is one of my favorites. It was fairly hard to find a few years ago.
It’s a good one!
Hi Dillon - check out the English band "Bevis Frond" - Nick Saloman is the main man. Heavy, lots of guitar. Start with the album "New River Head" and go from there - you wont be disappointed. Cya Doug
Yes! I have quite a few of theirs! Thanks for watching! 🙏
How about some Classic Albums from a country , un pais , south of the border with once enough folks looking just like you Noble whom You sure Have Missed!?.
Great to see you giving Cactus some love. So neglected. Jim McCarty, along with Terry Kath, are two of the seriously underrated guitarists in history. And that Bogert/Appice rhythm section. As good as it gets.
Totally agree!
Love the Jesse Ed Davis album. And, yes: there's a little Dr. John in it, for sure.
Great stuff!
I was going to suggest Armageddon and Budgie and then you showed them. Very popular albums in San Antonio. Don’t forget Captain Beyond.
Yep! Another great one!
Grand Funk "Red Album" needs to be owned by every hard rock fan. Blistering Dylan, you heard the first Pato album?
Hehe have listened to bang ,l think l got one still.hehe got the dust album, bought it when it came out
Got that budgie album bought it when it came out got others also bought them when they came out am a fan of any nude disintegrating parachutist woman.
Brilliant as always! Stepson, Charlee and Neil Merryweather been on my wants list for ever....but that's the UK drawback when looking for US music! Bux and Wool both new to me. I have the other 15 although some are re issues!

Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much!
Good Stuff. Check out Highway S/T (1975). Ultra rare but they reissued a year or so ago and its fantastic. Out of MN. I love that record.
Oh yeah that’s a great one! Looking hard for an original?
I have been looking for any terry reid this side of the pound. I can never find any. As for that era i would have choosen lord sutch and heavy friends. Top choices though. I guess i have some listening to do. Thanks for the tips. Never heard of bux and fear itself.
Jessie Harper - Guitar Absolution In The Shade Of A Midnight Sun
The band Dust is best known for Marc Bell a.k.a. Marky Ramone
I scored the second Bang a couple days ago! 🤌
For $4!
Great deal!!!
Bloody Mary should be on this list
Dude, how many times are you gonna say "Black Sabbath"? ACDC? Do you know what "classic rock" is?
I’ve never heard of it, please teach me, wise one!
Supposedly, Jimi Hendrix was once asked what it was like to be the greatest guitar player in the world. His reply was I don't know, go ask Rory Gallagher.
I’ve heard that a bunch of different ways! 🤣 he’s a great player!
@@noblerecordsTerry Kath from Chicago Transit Authority also, listen to that album and you’ll know why 😊
Jimi said Terry was better than him !
I think Jimi as humble as he was had named multiple guitarists including Billy Gibbons, Terry Kath and yes Rory was in there 🎸👌🏼
No source for this...
New to your channel. I’m 65 I’m obsessed with classic rock. Your collection is amazing. Do you watch Rick Beato? Or Professor of rock? Two of my favorite channels.
Wonderful video. I'm Brazilian and here's a band from the 70s with just one album called O Peso - In search of lost time (1975).It's really worth listening to.
Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs! very overlooked album!
Is it ''Sighs!'' the key word there...?
Instant like from me when you mention Paul Kossoff. Found and bought a copy of that record this weekend at a record shop for £10. Tuesday morning is truly underrated and the copy I found still was in the shrink and looks to never have been played, crazy!
Amazing! Thanks for the like! 🙏
Did you ever hear Cherry People, Punky Meadows was in that band also it was more psych
Budgie plays in my home town in Wales a lot in the early seventies. Very underrated band. They were Welsh.
I picked up those Bang albums after seeing them open for Grand Funk Railroad. Both good albums.
Great stuff! Would love to see Grand Funk in their prime!
@noblerecords I can't remember how many times I saw them, but it was a bunch. Its a crime that they are not in the Hall of Fame. Grand Funk ruled in those days.

Paul Pena's unreal. He was blind and actually wrote the original "Jet Airliner" made famous by Steve Miller Band
Hey Dylan!! Great Show!!! How About "Teaser" By Tommy Bolin!! He Was So Underrated And Missed!!
You make me feel like I've been living under a rock for 50 years. Never heard of anything you showed. I turned my back on Rock in the early 1970s. I just didn't like what I was hearing, went to classical (and some jazz) and never looked back (except toward the 1960s - Beatles, Stones, etc). That is, until now, where I've been getting into Green Day and Boston. Maybe I'll explore further and look back at all the good stuff that's passed and I've missed.
Armageddon. Great album. You can't go wrong with anything Bobby Caldwell is on.
i have dust hard attack, its a good lp i think marky ramone played drums in dust, i love kossoff, and free.
First two Ultimate Spinach albums are great stuff 👍
The Road featuring Noel Redding & Tractor (a candle for Judith)
Great vid! Two thirds of Cactus Tim Bogert and Carmine Appice joined Jeff Beck who I saw together in the early 70’s. Paul Pena wrote Jet airliner covered by Steve Miller and Terry “Superlungs” Reid was offered the singer job by Jimmy Page before Plant. Thanks Dylan
Yes! I love the Beck, Bogert & Appice stuff
That first Angel record is a total hard rock banger. No hair metal in that one.
One of my favorite under-the-radar albums is Rough Mix by Pete Townshend & Ronnie Lane. Absolutely fantastic from start to finish.
Very cool. Thanks for watching! 🙏
You might like crawler yes bought it when It came out . hehe saw cactus saw them with Rod Stewart
Did you know that the drummer for Dust is Marky Ramone of the Ramones?
When i grew up this wasnt called classic rock. It was just rock haha
Best 100 albums of all time, alphabetical order.
Volcanic Rock by Buffalo is great
Dust " Hard Attack" is another good one. In my collection.
Oh yeah, great one!
Both Dust records are fantastic
Re Paul Kossoff’s Backstreet Crawler, when I was a kid (in the UK) Paul’s dad, who was a well regarded actor on his own right, would tour schools with an anti drugs message (Paul died from an overdose). I remember him reading out the lyrics to the song Backstreet Crawler like poetry, because it was about Paul’s struggles with drugs. A sad loss and a great guitarist.
Budgie were a great band I love all their mca albums and I swear next summer I will be ordering from you the UK is so expensive so there's my new years resolution I'm due some money next year so it will happen as long as I don't die
Well I hope you make it! Thanks for watching! 🙏
Also, one you recommended before that's not common that I got and loved, "Road." Great album. Not the cheapest, but really, really good.
There's a band called Sorcery with an album called "Sinister Soldiers" that would fit in nicely in this list! Super ahead-of-it's-time HEAVY and hard 70s rock.
Man that is awesome you're able to do re-releases for people who can't find those long out of print gems! Hats off to you fellow music lover! 🤝
jesse davis play with taj mahal?
He sure did, alongside Ry Cooder. Statesboro' Blues was the track that got Duane Allman started on slide guitar 👍🏻
Yep!
Ultimate Spinach IS great. I like their second album the best. Also pretty funny story how they came up with their name (probably not that surprising tho). I always find their records in the wild but have yet to find a clean one.
Yeah they got played hard! Thanks for watching! 🙏
Thank you, thank you so much!
Great list here, especially one that you showed Freedom and Taste, check out a band called High Tide - Sea Shanties. a heavy progressive jazz fusion rock album, it's excellent!!
Yes! I have it! It’s amazing!
I'd highly recommend the first two albums by Ballin' Jack. The first album is self titled and the second album is titled "Buzzard Luck." I saw them open for Jimi Hendrix and they were awesome. Hard to pin em down, but the were a west coast band, so theres some of that, but also have horns like Blood SweT & Tears. Give em a listen here on RUclips and let me know what you think.
Yeah I’ve had those! Very cool!
Captain Beyond just might blow your mind.
I thought about putting it on the list but felt like most people had heard of them. Killer stuff.
Samudio Domingo ( Sam the Sham)
Love that Jesse Davis. Saw him playing with Taj Mahal back in 1970. Bought his LP's as they were released. If you have not heard it yet, Taj's new LP Savoy is great!
Wow that’s amazing!
When you showed Bang! I looked for my copy behind me (Italian pressing for some reason) and had Baker Gurvitz Army in my hand when you showed Three Man Army. Geordie: “Wey aye man”.
Haha crazy!
I'm sulking about stepson. I listened to it, loved it then discovered it ain't available on CD. I normally check first to avoid frustration but slipped-up on that one. An amazing album though for sure.
There are stepson CDs but not many around.
Here’s one with alternate tracks…

In the same vein as Paul Pena and Jesse Davis, I highly recommend Sand's Self-Titled double lp. It's a weird one cause it was designed to play on those stackable players so Side 4 is just blank. It's a really beautiful confluence of America-style harmonies, Mojave desert road trip interlacing guitars and just warm vibes. The cover is literally a sandwich. Been a loved one for a long while in my collection.
That’s a cool one!
Mount Rushmore
How about Leaf Hound's Growers of Mushroom?
That’s a great one! Incredibly rare!
No fool! Ronnie James Dio went over to RAINBOW for years before he went to Black Sabbath. Get a clue!!!
Did I say he was only in Elf and Black Sabbath? Was I supposed to tell his entire life story? Of course I know he was in rainbow. Pretty foolish comment if you ask me.
@@noblerecords No fool. But he did say he went from Elf to Black Sabbath. That is a falsehood.
Ya that WOOL album ,pretty fucking funky.
Personally I wish they focused just a little more on that,because they have groove.
We do have a lot of fuzz and smoky purply tones on it to bring the go-go dancers to life.
Decent record,has some filler.
Thanks for sharing it.
The 1st 4 Budgie albums should have been produced better, but they have awesome songs.
Dust - Hard Attack is one of my favorites. The guy who did the art work (Frank Frazetta) also did the artwork for the Molly Hatchet and Wolfmother albums, among others.
Yes! It’s a cooker for sure!
Dust, Budgie and Bang are some of the heaviest music outside of Sabbath! Some of my top albums!
Demian!
My friends older brother had Black Sabbath grand funk old Rolling Stones. Great stuff.
Joe Droukas - Goodbye Joe Drake is such a weird and cool album
The Frost - Frost Music
The Godz - The Godz
Kingfish - Live n Kickin’
The Mops are a Japanese psychedelic band that are amazing. Along with Flower Travelin’ Band
