Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet


1968
The first one where things really start getting good.

You could throw this one on before Led Zeppelin III at your next record party.

Arbouretum - The Gathering


2011
Sounds like the band is built around featuring this guys vocals (More Lannegan than Cornell). The tunes are pretty laid back and cool. They've got a early 70's kind of thing going on. Sounds like they could take off and jam for a half hour at any point. I've heard them compared to Crazy Horse, I suppose that's as good as anybody I can think of...but more modern like Dead Meadow or somebody like that.

Zombi - Spirit Animal


2009
Sound like Miami Vice and Kraftwork. Don't really care for this too much.

The Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame

1971
Now I know how the folks who ate the brown acid felt.

-There's some amazing stuff going on here, but the damn thing just makes me have bad thoughts.

Devil's Hollow - Devil's Hollow



Stevie Ray Vaughn with a dash of Black Crowes. Some Southern rock vibes too.
