KENNELMUS - FOLKSTONE PRISM (1971)
Folkstone Prism es álbum que logra sorprendernos gratamente por sus composiciones, arreglos, melodías, atmósferas y estructuras melódicas. En si esta obra de Kennelmus presenta una performance bastante aceptable, ya que se puede apreciar: ambientes psicodélicos bastantes interesantes y "pintorescos" y una postura acida muy encandilada con la esencia folk. En si un álbum "delicioso" que presenta una cara totalmente instrumental y otra con unos desarrollos extraños que se inclinan por un sonido Acid Folk denso y por momentos extravagante. En resumen se podría definir todo el concepto de Kennelmus como un álbum Psych Folk con tintes “Heavy” y salpicado de momentos progresivos. 1971 sin duda alguna es el año de las transiciones. Mis impresiones para este álbum son regulares, nunca me lleno del todo, aunque reconozco que el álbum tiene momentos bastante interesantes dentro de todo ese revoltijo lisérgico. Aprecio más su lado A (instrumental) que su lado B (canciones) p
I sometimes wonder what it was like to be a music lover in the seventies. So many bands with so many records and so many of them obscure…was it as big a treat as it is today to find something incredibly rare. Blackwater Park "Dirt Box" [Spalax]
ResponderEliminarTheir lone (only one album) with 1972 this German hard rock outfit with an English vocalist,combined elements from multiple extant and budding rock subgenres to construct their complex sound: hard rock, blues-rock, jazz-rock, acid rock, prog rock, and even proto-metal.
Blackwater Park is an obscure band that emerged from the Berlin underground scene. They released their unique album "Dirt Box" in 1971, published on BASF in 1972. The group delivers a captivating, effective bluesy-heavy rock "trip" with lot of incisive guitar riffs, progressive Hammond Organ's arrangements, melodic heavy vocals and psychedelic effects that are part of the mix. His British singer had a strong voice. Especially the third and heavy track "Indian Summer", which clearly shows us the quality, engaging and virtuosity among its members. Remember that the last song is beautiful version of "For No One", composed by Lennon and McCartney,with the album 'Revolver' issued in 1966.
(Accessible) kraut power band whose work is essential for collectors. "Dirt Box" has been recently reissued on CD by record labels Second Battle.
