WE DO THE MASHED POTATO AND THE FUNKY CHICKEN

An Archtype of the 70s live album

Posted about 1 year ago

The gatefold. The wide shot wide angle shot of the crowd. The color-gel lighting photography. OK, it was released in 1969, but this album for me is just oozes that big concert vibe of the 70's. Maybe it set the trend? Maybe this is the "Charlie Parker with Strings" of the rock world? Would 'Kiss Alive' have looked the same without this album? Back before it went corporate, back when the lighting caught a mist of blue smoke. The only remnant of the 60's I can see are the screaming girls. It's actually a great album too. Freely availalbe in $1 bins at Aomeba I'm sure.

Check out "Chest Fever". Is there a heavier fuzz guitar riff out there?
