KOPPERFIELD-TALES UNTOLD-

As this outfit, originated from America, released its sole album in 1974 the statement of Hard/Prog/Blues rock took a whole new dimension. Forming in the early 70´s the Heavy touring paid off with this rollercoasting album.

The production is great and timetypical with splendid vocal efforts and great organ harmonies with an Asskicking rhythmsection. The songs are hard/Heavy and drenched in prog seasoning. No song stands out as and immidiate hit but the threshold is very high with no bad apples in the barrel. This is a true tour de force and a great record…The saga would contuine until 1975 when the band called it the quits. Great gigs where handled in front of major crowds and opening slots for major acts. A true magical mystery tour!!

Whatabout the drummer, Tom Curtis??? This fellow was an excellent bassplayer Before picking up the drumsticks and thank God for that. This is an display of astromical technical skills and hyper funky drive. The striking abilities are out of this World and top this with a hitratio and Dynamics of a World class hero. It is obvious that you do understand that this the SH*T!! One of the best drummers I´ve ever Heard on an album from this timeperod. Gobsmacked!  Very Very impressive and a great inspiration. Top Notch.

This is a must have record if you find Hard/Prog/blues rock is the best thing next to Cold beer on a hot summers day. Great reissues are out there for an expensive pricetag but it is Worth it. Seldom do I find albums with no whats so ever credit to be so solid through and through. Just plain great….. 🙂 I am gonna turn up the volume…plenty… 🙂
