MOVING SIDEWALKS “FLASH ” (ITALIAN AKARMA) 2000 CVR IS M- DISC IS M- IN HEAVY PLASTIC SLEEVE
The Moving Sidewalks were the Houston, Texas based psych band that gained fame later as the breeding ground for Billy Gibbons, he of ZZ Top fame. What becomes evident rather quickly is the influence of a one Jimi Hendrix, during the Experience years of course. There are photos of Hendrix and Gibbons together, and the former was known to have praised the latter's guitar work. It must have been quite the ego boost to be surrounded with such great company at an early age.
Flash would be their only album before ultimately disbanding and Gibbons forming ZZ Top. The music is a cross of high energy psychedelic with that of the blues, the latter being more the influence of Gibbon's next career. The album starts off incredible strong, but does wheeze out at the end with the somewhat traditional and lengthy 'Joe Blues', and the wacky and seemingly drug induced 'Eclipse' / 'Reclipse' segment.
