Description

Very rare original Dutch 1969 LP by beat / psych / prog legends Shocking Blue (with Mariska Veres and Robby van Leeuwen). See scan. 

Tracks: Boll Weevil / I'll write your name through the fire / Acka Raga / Love machine // I'm a woman / California here I come / Poor Boy / Love Buzz / The butterfly and I. Superb sitar psych / prog rock with the great vocals of Mariska Veres !!! "Love buzz" was covered by Nirvana (with Kurt Cobain) !!!

With all of the major rock and roll bands of both the past and today mainly coming from America and England, there is a tendency to overlook the bands that have come from other countries. One such example is the Dutch band Shocking Blue. Essentially, these guys were hold-over hippies that were making the music of the sixties long after that decade had ended. While the band scored only a single big hit in America, in various European nations they were very big.

It's tough to describe the music of Shocking Blue, because there's really nothing else out there like them, in the seventies. As I previously stated, it's as if the group attempted to prevent the sixties psychedelic pop-rock scene from dying. Rather obviously, their attempt to do this failed, but during their reign they did become fairly popular in nations across Europe. The group's first big and only noteworthy American hit was of course "Venus".

There's really nothing else like Shocking Blue. In the end, I would have to say that Shocking Blue's music is pretty damn good. If you're into sixties-style psychedelic pop-rock, you're going to get a real kick out of their music !!!
