Re: Proto - Metal

Formed in 1968 Berlin ,Germany this hard rocking outfit released their first slab in 1970 but are best known for their out put
between 71 to 75 .The 71 release was almost banned in Germany due to it's "shocking" cover art which depicted a huge spider in the process of devouring human babies . I snatched it up at my local used vinyl store out of the "import section" for that very reason .


BIRTH CONTROL :

Here's a real gem I picked up on vinyl many years ago for a couple of bucks. From 1978, this is fantastic straight ahead heavy R&R.

Re: Proto - Metal

Wolf, you sure like the term "slab". For years when we caught a Chinook(King) Salmon over 25 pounds, when we landed it, "Holy s@#*, what a slab!".

Re: Proto - Metal

Slab is slang for a vinyl album here as is platter etc.


BTW I didn't listen to your last one because you called it R&B conjuring up images of Luther
Vandross ( or whatever 'is name is ) in my head . I finally listen to it and it ROCKS .

Oh I know. I was just stating another defination I have applied to "slab" as to what I have already described in a previous thread that relates to music. Basically, just useless info. Brought back good memories, that's all.

Luther Vandross. There's a name I haven't heard for 20 years. Are you a fan Wolf?

Re: Proto - Metal

There's a quite array of different musical styles contained on this album. These are the three heaviest tracks off the Lp. Out of New York, Stark Naked from 1971.

Let me go on record with an infatacally ( spelling ? ) stated NO
No disrespect intended toward anyone who might be but that is why I said I resisted listening to your videos at first because of your r&b reference conjuring up those images in my head .


Fear not my fine feather friends. I shall return to this thread after a short break .


EDIT : Oh my mistake ! I read r&b but it actually says R&R . No wonder you got confused by my babbling
