Radio Moscow - The Great Escape of Leslie Magnafuzz

Cheer The Return Of Rock And Blues

Oh yeah, the retro rockwagon rolls on with this Iowa trio of authentic psychedelic worshippers before the alter of Blue Cheer volume and rip-it-up guitar, bass and drums. Where The Answer ably ape Led Zep and Free, Radio Moscow confidently tread the Sabbath and already invoked Blue Cheer route, Parker Gibbs scorching out wah-wah and other pylon-carried guitar solos. There's the blues too, as in the harmonica driven Creepin', fourth track on this consistently thumping gem. Instrumental Densaflorativa is a drum'n'guitar interlude that ends on a psychedelic vocalplay with sound effects before segueing into the powerful rock track I Don't Need Nobody. If you like it heavy and hard, knock yourself out with this rock-resurrection blast from the glorious past.
