Hard Rock, Blues Rock, 2021.
1975-ös album remaszterelt CD újra kiadása!
Számos legendás rockzenész szerepelt az együttesben!
Mike Bloomfield (a későbbi Butterfield Blues Band gitáros, Bob Dylan eredeti gitárosa, az Electric Flag tagja) alapította az együttest, a további tagok: Carmine Appice dobos (Vanilla Fudge, Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart, Black Sabbath), Rick Grech basszusgitáros (Blind Faith, Ginger Bakers Airforce). Speciális vendégként Al Kooper szerepel!
KGB were the supergroup of the supergroups, the creme de la creme, a mid seventies collective featuring of the most impeccable musicians in the UK and USA, they created a controversy, a mystique and a collectability that has endured and grown for almost 30 years. Even today, rumours persist that Grech’s old mucker Stevie Winwood contributed anonymously to the recordings although no one has ever confirmed this. Released here for the first time on CD. Complete with the original sleeve artwork, it makes for fascinating listening, particularly since it reveals Bloomfield as a team player, one member of an allband effort. This may well have been dictated by his growing discomfort with celebrity. Given his gift for the guitar, he would ve been forgiven for running riot all over the album, but he doesn’t. What he does do is tasteful and awe-inspiring.
Both Bloomfield and Grech left KGB after the album’s release, and the group recorded another LP, „Motion”, with replacement musicians before disbanding. Bloomfield carried on through the 70s with a series of under-achieving blues albums and film soundtracks while his health declined, allegedly due to drug abuse. In November 1980.
