Leírás

Blues, Blues Rock, Hard Rock, Psychedelic Blues Rock, 1971-es album,
Remaszterizált Limited edition ARANY színű bakelit lemez újra kiadás, 2025.

The ground breaking album by the ultimate power trio who morphed blues into hard rock and spawned punk. A much-loved opus with a side-long concept piece. A bona fide inspirational rock classic. Limited Edition Gold LP 2024 reissue, 2025 re-pressing. And a second side that delivers the mighty ‘Cherry Red’, McPhee’s take on The Beatles’ ‘A Day In the Life’, a sideswipe at junk food and a glorious interpretation of John Lee Hooker’s ‘Groundhogs Blues’. Remastered and packaged with a second disc of out-takes from the original sessions that spawned this spontaneous monster. Split is a studio album recorded by UK blues rock group Groundhogs in November 1970 and released in March 1971. It was originally released by Liberty Records 

“Tony McPhee has turned to anarchic paranoid battlegrounds of the mind for inspiration” Melody Maker

“Both musically and lyrically, ’Split’ speaks for a lost time, a nomad time when ideals took to the hoof and musicians stayed on the road rather than confront the fact that the ’60s ‘war’ had been lost.” Julian Cope

“Murky, fuzzy, and wisely esoteric.” AllMusic
