COLD BLOOD
TOP COPY!
Original 1969 first pressing = the dynamic first COLD BLOOD album featuring a turned-on electric powerhouse that thrilled fans at the old Fillmore, Avalon and other happening clubs inthe San Francisco hippie daze.
49+ years old in TOP condition !
A San Francisco-based R&B band originally formed by guitarist Larry Field as the "New Invaders" in the wake of the Summer of Love, Cold Blood had the key elements of strong female vocalist, a fine guitarist, and a powerful back up section. After successful gigs at Golden Gate Park and at the Fillmore, they were signed by impresario Bill Graham to his new San Francisco Records label, on which they released this self-titled debut in 1969. .
Though the debut's single "You've Got Me Humming" crawled up to number 52 on the American charts, Cold Blood seemed doomed to labor in the shadow of bands like the Grateful dead, Jefferson Airplane, and especially Janis Joplin. The latter comparison became endemic among critics; for although blues belter Lydia Pense joined Field's band as its youngest member -- she had formerly been, of all things, a childhood national rollerskating champion -- her magnetic stage presence established her as the band's central force. Eventually, the band billed itself as Lydia Pense With Cold Blood, and even released an album simply titled Lydia. Joplin sensed a kindred soul; after screaming at Cold Blood for scooping her on a blistering cover of "Piece of My Heart," she warmed to Penseenough to give her a swig of Southern Comfort...The first album boasts the intense tune "I'm A Good Woman" arguably Cold Bloods best ever track and is full of drive with Lydia's vocals full of sass. It has been said she is more of a pure singer than Joplin ever was, though that could be debated. Nevertheless, the first Cold Blood is young and fresh from the happening hippie kingdom of San Francisco and delivers the goods like no other Cold Blood album ever would. As a result Cold Blood built a large cult following with their dy-namic shows at all the important ballrooms and clubs in the San Francisco scene heyday.
