JOHN VERITY BAND-JOHN VERITY BAND-

As scones does it for a cup of tea, so does this album from 1974,  the same thing to your turntable. Bringing a Perfect Match! This Hard/Classic/prog rock record got Everything you will ever need for an unknown Discovery into the ocean of obscure albums. Perhaps More famous for his involvment in the band Argus, John Verity’s participation makes this a Little more interesting to approach. As good as the great feeling with the first rays of Sunlight early in the morning, just as fresh is this piece of plastic.

The Production is top notch with clear great sound and a perfect balance between all of the instruments and the vocals. As Mr Verity knows his way around the fretboard this is just the feeling of being struck by a major goldfind. Even as the album evolves, the songs turn both heavier and more powerdriven. This is a very good record with no what so ever recognizion back in the day. Great!! 🙂

What about the drummer, Ron Kelly?? This is a powerhouse drummer with great rock striking abilities. The timing and hitratio are all just fine but the most impressive part is the punsch and the drive to keep the drums interesting to follow during the songs. This is  good drumming but he´s not reinventing the Wheel. Just great rockdrumming. Impressive manners!!

As this album is a frontrunner towards the English Heavy metal scene that would explode in the late ´70s, you will “reckognize” the soundframe. Great copies are out there for a descent piece of your Money and if you´re in for straightforward Hard/Classic/prog rock with no what so ever competition from the time period, this one is a Winner!! A Very good album which has been hidding under the radar. This album is as fun to enjoy in your headphones as is it to play it  loud at the vinyl gathering. Fellows! Raise your glas for an eminent rock Classic record!!
