[C]

I would probably rate the debut just slightly higher, but both of these albums are indispensable.

Agreed

Blistering guitar and violin!

this one has a few more folky elements, although the debut had them as well.

the thing is... i just want more. mwhahaha. there is no more.

but we do have what we have. which is kickarse/kickass

[Spock!]

By heck, these boys can play.


What a combo, and such a shame that they didn't get due reward.



Is Simon House the best rock violinist? I'm beginning to believe so.

[kath]

i would add that this one actually sounds more psychy than the debut.

A South African band with a Brit and an Italian – only one album only released at the time in SA in 1970. A South African friend at the time when I was at university (1974) gave me a cassette – I loved it.
Trouble is with the advent of CDs in the 80s I didn’t play it and forgot about it.
Well it was released on CD in the early 2000s I think and my interest was resurrected – hence C a proud owner.
[I forgot I had the CD too!]

wow. i've never heard of a band called suck. i've seen the movie suck, which is a cheesy, campy vampire movie (with cameos by alex lifeson, alice cooper, iggy pop, henry rollins, etc.)

perhaps i shouldn't've brought it up. ahem.

The band wanted to replace the 'S' with an 'F' but the record company wouldn't let them
