The Corporation - I Want To Get Out Of My Grave

Groovy little uptempo garage/pop/psych nugget with nice fuzzy guitars and a smattering of heavy organ throughout.

Formed in Milwaukee in 1968 at Cudahy's Galaxy Club where the Kondos brothers joined up with members of an outfit called Eastern Mean Time. Some months later they were heard by Capitol reps at another club The Bastille, which the band had bought into.

With a contract for an album the band journeyed to Detroit to record at Terra Shirma studios with producer John Rhys. Released in February 1969, the LP is notable for the side-long psychedelic rework of John Coltrane's India. All tracks on side one were group compositions. It was successful in several regions (No. 3 in Milwaukee) but only rose to No. 197 in the national charts.

The group made more recordings but a deal for a second Capitol album fell through and this material was eventually spread across two LPs released by the band on Age Of Aquarius, a Cuca custom label (Fuzz, Acid & Flowers).

Snow - Song Of The Sirens

A few weeks ago I posted a 45 by Snow here: This is an album cut from the self titled album on E pic records from 1968. This is a pretty heavy, dare i say doom-ish track for 1968. Maybe proto-doom? I mean Black Sabbath is a few years away and I can't think go too many bands that were playing this slow and doom like. Maybe Iron Butterfly or Blue Cheer, but at any rate this is a cool heavy track on an otherwise fairly light affair, that only hints at psych rock here and there, mostly playing the pop angle.

Flying - Evil

Here is another little known (Unknown?) private press 45 that is "Flying" under the radar. (see what i did there?) Most likely from the 80's but info is scant. Heavy, Buzzy, Fuzzy guitar with a slightly "Evil" sound (see what i did there?!?) Anyone with any 411 please drop it. Until the next time, enjoy.

The American Express - When The City Sleeps

Great guitar workout from The American Express on the Vault Records label; 1969. Wish it went on a tad bit longer because the jam is that good....
