I remember hearing rumours about this band years ago as some of the members from Sir Lord Baltimore supposedly formed this band after SLB's demise. From what I have gathered this doesn't seem to be true though some have stated that SLB's drummer/vocalist Frank Garner sang on a couple of tracks as both bands were in the same recording studio, however the dates just don't line up. Rumours abound. There isn't any info on the personnel from the recording.

Hard rock/heavy prog. Purple-esque and Heepish with the swirling organ. Vocals are reminescent of SLB and might be abrading to some. Pretty good stuff. A couple of weak tracks. Very rare vinyl.

 

[LOU/REALM]

These tracks are pretty good Joe....how many stars are you giving this album ??

I think I would it give it 3 1/2stars LOU. There's a few ballads on it that aren't very good IMO. I D/L it about 3 months ago. Never seen it on vinyl in my travels. SLB's Kingdome Come was somewhat not to hard to find but it was thier second s/t album that was hard to find.
