Description
RARE Japanese pressing of Fuse with Rick Nielsen & Tom Peterson, 5 years before Cheap Trick. Vinyl is SO MINT; cardboard sleeve is sturdy w/NO splits--listed as VG+ because of brown age spots on rear cover (54 yrs old -- see pic #2); NO tears/creases on the lyric sheet. In U.S., ships from OH; packaged securely. From AllMusic review: "In Fuse, they (re: Nielsen & Peterson) and three other musicians played ordinary late-'60s hard rock, influenced by the Yardbirds and Cream, and perhaps a bit of Arthur Brown in the operatic vocals and classical-tinged keyboards, but with a Midwestern industriousness. Actually it seems a little ahead of its time in how the songwriting, hard rock/organ combinations, long-winding melodic progressions, and overly serious belting vocals of Joe Sundberg anticipate some early-'70s hard rock/prog rock crossover albums."
