This is a very rare opportunity.
Original Australian Pressing on Harvest SHVL-608
A chance to buy this extremely rare 1972 record by Australia's Legendary Carson 'Blown' LP.
Carson's career was relatively short -- almost exactly three years - but in that time the "Kings of Boogie" built a reputation as a powerful live act, and they were one of the most popular Australian blues bands of the early 70s. Lead singer Broderick Smith went on to front The Dingoes.
Together with Bulldog, Chain, The Aztecs, Company Caine and Pirana, Carson was part of the stable of acts handled by Consolidated Rock, the Melbourne agency founded by young entrepreneur Michael Gudinski. Carson was also an important stepping stone for several of its members, including singer Broderick Smith, and the group's original keyboard player John Capek.
The original four-piece lineup formed in in January 1970. Guitarist "Sleepy" Greg Lawrie (ex-The Creatures, Chocolate) was already considered one of the best slide players in the country; John Capek was ex-Leo De Castro and Friends; Ian "Fingers" Ferguson's career had started way back in 1961 with Shepparton rockers Tony & The Shantels, and completing the lineup was drummer Tony Lunt.
Band members – Greg (Sleepy) Lawrie (bottleneck guitar), Broderick Smith (vocals / harp), Tony Lunt (drums), Mal Logan (keyboards), Gary Clarke (bass), Ian Winter (guitar).
This is a powerful piece of early 70’s Australian blues / boogie.
