TEASER - Teaser 1978 ((1978 / Vertigo)
Más aventuras desde recientes conciertos. Tengo la ocasión de conocer a Adriaan van den Berg. Más conocido como el rubio holandés de la eterna juventud, Vandenberg. Guitarrista tan humilde como descomunal, de fama mundial con Whitesnake en los dorados 80. Me ve mi camiseta del primero de Bad Company y me dice que le gusta. Es un dejá-vu, pienso, porque el mismísimo Mick Ralphs me dijo lo mismo! Aunque éste era de esperar. Le digo que no me extraña, porque su disco con Teaser era como uno más de Bad Company, y de los buenos. Saca su sonrisa más cómplice y me da la razón. Ya venía Vandenberg de variadas formaciones desde su natal Enschde (Holanda) : Mother of Pearl, Darling, Jaap Dekker Boogie Set, Magic Box..... Donde fue haciendo contactos y sumando experiencia en las tablas. En 1977 pone en marcha Teaser, (seguramente un guiño-homenaje a Tommy Bolin).

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.
