A classic one and they’re gone band. Formed way back in ’69 in Cleveland after slogging around on the club circuit they were signed by RCA, and this their only album that was released in ’73. I am aware that there was a bits and pieces left over album, and an attempt at another album in the toonie,s but this was the band’s only shot at the big time.
It’s very of it’s time and reminds me a lot of Captain Beyond. I think psychedelic Prog would fit the band perfectly, although they do tend to veer into jam band country at times. I’m going for the song Cleveland Ohio as my favourite tune. I really like the busy uptempo groove and the wild guitar. If they had maybe stuck more with this vibe, then who knows.
I know there are collectors for the whole Cleveland scene, and this is a cool part of that.
6/10 from The Grooveman.
