Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days.

Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.

1969 FINAL COLLECTION COPY
original SIRE inner sleeve included
........................................................................................
- RARE and sought-after USA "SIRE" label collectible from 53 years ago one of the great '69 era underground blues boom jammers
- ................................................................................
- KILLING FLOOR
- If it's the loud, powerful heavy fuzzed blues sound that you crave, you'll dig this. More in the cult of the rock-blues white vein that's so successful, and this team have the power to pull something off. Not too strong on the originality stakes, but their workouts of songs are greatness in their superb heavy blues offering, including a stomping version of 'Woman You Need Love' [appropriated by Led Zeppelin and transformed into ' Whole Lotta Love']
-
The sheer toughness -- and overall derivative -- nature of Killing Floor's debut album, issued six months after Led Zeppelin's debut in 1969 on the Sire label, is a wondrous contrast to the overly slick treatment American Blues were given by British artists. All of these tunes, with the exception of one, are revamped versions of songs from the blues canon with different words. The lone "cover" in the set is "Woman You Need Love," the tune Zep ripped for "Whole Lotta Love."
By supporting groups like Ten Years After and Jethro Tull, on tour this band received some attention and notoriety, nothing like the bands that they opened for, but they did make a name for themselves. This self-titled KILLING FLOOR burns with the red-hot coals of emotion only found in righteous blues music. All but one of these tracks is an original, which proves that they were talented enough to hold their own.
- Singer and harp player Bill Thorndycraft had a gruff deep down-from-the-belly vocal style, similar to Alvin Lee, and he could blow the harp to give the music that earthy blues feeling that could be found in all the Mississippi Delta blues gone thrilling electrified.
- Michael Clark was an exceptional six-string guitar-slinger that had a fire burning in the belly; you could hear it in his playing, and the rhythm section of Bas Smith (drums) and Stuart MacDonald (bass) was steadfast and true in support of his fire branded flourishes.
This is an excellent album for a first electrified effort ...and they clearly broke some ground like their counterparts the Groundhogs did during the same time frame.
- This LP has an unfailing flow and liveliness that never lets up; its all mighty blues-rock played with heart and soul.
