Original 1970 first pressing in FACTORY SHRINK WRAP cover....
One of the best albums by this San Francisco 'head' band ...
Linn County were formed in Iowa, round 1967. They moved to San Francisco prior to recording their first album in 1968.The third and last Linn County LP, came out in 1970. Their sound follows the steps from their previous releases, tasty psychedelic blues with slices of psoul, and bit more mature essence.
Originally from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, this powerful, blues-based quintet - Stephen Miller (organ, vocals), Fred Walk (guitar, sitar), Larry Easter (saxophones, flute), Dino Long (bass) and Ray "Snake' McAndrew (drums) - subsequently moved to Chicago and then San Francisco. Their impressive debut for Mercury Records, 1968"s Proud Flesh Soothsayer, included the lengthy "Protect And Serve/Bad Things" which showcased the exhilarating interplay between the unit's instrumental protagonists. A more orthodox collection, Fever Shot, nonetheless featured several hard-edged, disciplined performances, while a final release on the Philips Records label, Till The Break Of Dawn, offered a vibrant reading of John Lee Hooker's "Boogie Chillen" as its highlight. By this point McAndrew had been replaced by Clark Pierson, but the group was unable to capitalize upon their cult status and broke up soon afterwards
