A very great album IMO!

I always preferred this album to 'Time and a Word' from the 1st. version of the band.

Ooh, there's also some pretty uplifting stuff on the album 'Time And A Word' I must say. I have not been listened to their 2017 album 'Topographic Drama (Live Across America)' yet....Have you?

They were the bellowing Gods Of Fuck. There were no big ugly noises in rock’n’roll before Blue Cheer. They created sonic brutality, coiling their teenage angst into an angry fist of sludge and feedback and hurling it at stunned, stoned hippies like a wave of mutilation. Everything about them was badass. They had a Hell’s Angel for a manager, they were despised by the other bands in their scene, and they played so loud that people ran from them in fear. Proto-punk, proto-metal and proto-rehab, Blue Cheer took acid, wore tight pants, cranked their walls of Marshall stacks and proved, once and for all, that when it came to all things rock, excess was always best.
