CLEAN...1968 ORIGINAL BLUES/PSYCH GEM!
TEN YEARS AFTER
STONEDHENGE
USA - DERAM RECORDS - DES 18021
MINTY CLEAN ...1968 Original first pressing with THICK cover ... the third TYA album and another that is SUPER hard to find with a clean cover (like this!), most copies are found with worn covers -- here then, a CLEAN, 1968 first pressing on the famed DERAM label finds the band breaking out in a bluesy psych direction with strong playing and infectious melodies within complex instrumentations...
Having focused on the blues over their first couple of albums, 1968's "Stonedhenge" found Alvin Lee and company taking some tentative steps to diversify and spread their creative wings, i.e. where the psychedelia crept in... While the album brought the band some initial commercial recognition in the States, that's not to say this set was any where near a commercial success -- on the contrary, made for prime underground FM radio play. The kick off track "Going To Try" is a top highlight with its infectious melody and strange delivery that offers the listener a new direction TYA were heading....even so, tracks such as 'A Sad Song' , 'No Title' and ''Hear Me Calling' blues remained the predominant sound, but this time around Lee and company took some stabs at writing rock and roll. Their best efforts are more enthusiastic than the album's pedestrian blues numbers, 'Woman Trouble' and 'Speed Kills' - although the latter's train crash ending was kind of jarring, and it's at best of high energy hard ripper in the best of TYA tradition. Strange as it may sound at first, once Alvin Lee's skat jam Skoobly Oobly Doobob' 'melody' get's ahold of you -- you'll know it for life.
