238) Leaf Hound-Growers Of Mushroom 1971

Av Mikael Persson - 2 maj 2014 17:41

 


This is the much sought after debut LP from english noisy hardrockers Leaf Hound. It consisted of noisy, slow, bluesbased hardrock with intense vocals and was clearly influenced by The Who and Led Zeppelin, even if they had their own wild and progressive style of hardrock, very heavy for the time. These kids were wild! This is a really good album that every hardrockfan should own.

They were formed in 1969 under the name of Black Cat Bones and featured guitarrist Paul Kossoff and drummer Simon Kirke who had left the famous band Free. They released the album "Barbed Wire Sandwich". Singer Peter French replaced the singer and guitarrist Rod Price left to join Foghat instead. French added his cousin Mick Halls on guitar and the band changed their name to Leaf Hound. Soon after the release the Brooks brothers Derek and Stuart on (bass and guitar) left and Leaf Hound toured Europe as a four-piece. French departed to join Atomic Rooster instead and later joined american band Cactus.

    Album number two from this incredible supergroup that made some unforgettable music in the 1980's! This is again melodic hardrock with a lot of keyboards and with impressing melodic, orchestral and powerful songs with fantastic vocals. A mus...

    8 years into their albumreleasingcareer J. Geils Band released another album worth of rockin' and rollin' songs but this time they took a much calmer and poppier path and not all the songs are top class anymore. It seemes like they went out ...
