Description

The superb Greek band hits again. This is their second effort, also from 1972. Originally released on black Polydor International. Heavy progressive and more blues oriented this time. It contains 9 songs. The opener is a frenzy and "wild" re-arrangement on Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction". For 13+ minutes, Socrates jam and improvise with endless guitar solos and fuzzy bass riffs while thunderous drumming accompanies. "Good morning blues" is an original heavy-blues number while the traditional "C.C.Rider" (represented here as "See See Rider") takes a demonic treatment from the band's axeman John Spathas. Side 2, with 6 original compositions, is moving towards the heavy progressive direction of their first "same-titled" album.

Comes with a 2-pages B/W insert (30x30cm) full of photos and memorabilia and a big-sized (40x60cm) poster (that was ready but it had never been released back in the early 70's). A 7" single has also been added as extra, containing the tracks "My only fellow" and "Friends Blues", originally released in 1971 with the red Polydor label.

This is a gem, found accidently while moving a store, very RARE and impossible to find!

For collectors who know..

Label: Anazitisi Records (Greece)
