Bloodrock's debut is nothing short of essential hard rock from my old hometown of Fort Worth. I never heard their debut until now surprisingly. Not as energetic as Grand Funk Railroad; not as heavy as Black Sabbath; more gritty than Uriah Heep. That's the sound of the first Bloodrock. About as good as it gets for American hard rock from the early 70s.
LP: 1970 Capitol
Another great garage sale find. And a true original in excellent shape too!
