A hard rock album. The original Decca release, in particular, is ultra-rare and very luck-after by collectors of this genre. In fact the album is perhaps the most expensive major label album of the 'progressive' era .
Their vocalist Pete French, a South Londoner, played with his cousin Mick halls in variou s rock / blues outfits like switch and Joe Poe before teaming up with Bob Brunning to form theBrunning sunflower blues band. By 1969, French had moved on to Black Cat Bones and Hall's later joined him. Then, they evolved into Leaf Hound in the latter of 1970, helped.
The album's name is very misleading. Anyone expecting to acid rock classic from the title and cover of the UK release is going to be very disappointed. This is driving hard rock in the Led Zeppelin mould which is only likely to appeal to fans of this genre. Nonetheless French voice is raw and strong ideally suited to music of this type's and the album is full of driving, incisive guitar work from Mick halls and his colleagues. This is particularly evident on tracks like drowning my life in fear, stagnant pool, Sad road to the sea and A minute to go but there are no weak cuts on the album.
During their short time together Leaf Hound got to tour Germany and their album what licens ED to Telefunken for German release before it which put out in this country. Inexplicably the German release omitted two cuts:-freelance fiend and the title track but It did come with a poster of the band. Telefunken so responsible one of the album's strongest tracks drowned my life in fear on a 45 backed by a non-LP song it's going to get better (Telefunken U 56 154) in a picture Miro (e) in 1971.
