Description
SIMON STOKES AND THE NIGHTHAWKS - SAME, US MGM SE-4677. 1968.
ORIGINAL US Promo ISSUE, Orig DJ Yellow Label.
Excellent US Psych Rock/Hard Bluesy Rock.....A cult figure with biker groups everywhere, Stokes made this album in 1968 which was produced by Michael Lloyd (except for one track).
Highlights are "Big City Blues", "Southern Girl", "Which Way", "Voodoo Woman" which was arranged by Don Galluchi (Touch) who might well have played on it, the catchy "Cajun Lil", "Down In Mexico" & "Ride On Angel". There's actually not a single so-so track and there's also some excellent tasty lead guitarwork throughout from Butch Senneville.
This is actually harder to find than his later original private issue of the Blackwhip Thrill Band LP....and has to be amongst the rarest and most sought after of all the MGM LPs.
The only other copy on ebay is £75 and there's not a single copy on gemm.
This is a rare DJ promo issue and is a really nice copy, plays close to Mint!
Condition is EX-/M- (cover/record), cover has no cutout.
