Recorded at a time when prehistoric rock critics were bemoaning Blue Cheer's use of volume over musicianship (But isn't that what rock's all about?), Thunder and Roses firmly inserted themselves into the Cheer's orbit with a late-'60s oh-so-heavy slab of vinyl that was anchored by a Philadelphia rhythm section and recorded at Sigma Sound.
An early decoder to the glories of the power trio. Creditable sole album from 1969 by this band from Philadelphia featuring the total classic "White Lace And Strange". Largely heavy Hendrix-influenced garage rock, (there's even an excellent cover of "Red House") this is a reissue of a now highly collectable release loaded with acid fret-mayhem...
