“In The Court Of The Crimson King”(1969) by King Crimson

I’m not a huge fan of King Crimson. I do acknowledge that they were and remain underrated by the general public but beyond this masterful first album I’m not a […]
“In Rock”(1970) by Deep Purple
on July 30, 2009 by Nick Uehling in Deep Purple, Uncategorized, Comments (1)
Black Sabbath who? Led Zeppelin who? No my friends. The Deep Purple is the first and the best heavy metal band in the world! Maybe not, but 1970’s “In Rock” […]
“In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida”(1968) by Iron Butterfly
on July 28, 2009 by Nick Uehling in Iron Butterfly, Uncategorized, Comments (0)
This is what I’m talkin’ about! Iron Butterfly’s magnum opus(Latin for great work). The best of the Iron Butterfly’s efforts is an organ filled acid trip. Full of classic riffs […]
“Help!”(1965) by The Beatles
on July 26, 2009 by Nick Uehling in The Beatles, Uncategorized, Comments (16)
Oh, The Fab Four…What will they do next? After the massive critical and commercial success of “A Hard Day’s Night” and the change in tone with “Beatles for Sale” the […]
“Heavy”(1968) by Iron Butterfly
on July 25, 2009 by Nick Uehling in Iron Butterfly, Uncategorized, Comments (0)
Regardless of the name, The Iron Butterfly’s debut is not heavy. At least not in the modern vernacular. It’s heavy in the “hey man, that’s heavy…” hippie sense. That’s what […]
“Get Yer Ya Ya’s Out!”(1970) by The Rolling Stones

Like The Who, The Rolling Stones released their best studio album to date in 1969 and decided to follow it up with their best live album in 1970. Not as […]
“Fresh Cream”(1966) by Cream

Blues meets pop but better! Blues meets pop meets The Cream! “Fresh Cream” is the debut album of aforementioned band and really is an oddly enjoyable mix of pop songs and […]
“Flowers”(1967) by The Rolling Stones
on July 19, 2009 by Nick Uehling in The Rolling Stones, Uncategorized, Comments (0)
This American only release is basically a bunch of cuts that never made the “Aftermath” or “Between The Buttons” versions on the American albums. Also, are a few singles. Who would have thought […]
“Fireball”(1971) by Deep Purple
on July 17, 2009 by Nick Uehling in Deep Purple, Uncategorized, Comments (1)
Album two of the Mark II Deep Purple(or three if you count “Concerto for Group and Orchestra”). One thing I have noticed between the Mark I and Mark II versions of Deep […]
“Exile On Main St.”(1972) by The Rolling Stones

Underrated when released and dare I say grossly overrated today, “Exile on Main St.” is a double album from The Rolling Stones which was released in 1972 directly after “Sticky […]
