Rock On! Wednesday, 2 February – Hawkwind, Guru Guru, Captain Beyond & Blue Öyster Cult

Psychedelic, heavy, prog and more innovating sounds spanning the late 60s and the early 70s – Wednesday September 15th. Dan’s pick of the week: Hawkwind (Space Ritual), Guru Guru (Känguru,), Captain Beyond (Captain Beyond) & Blue Öyster Cult (Secret Treaties).

Jake Cole van Spectrum Culture: “But the generally agreed-upon golden years of the group cover the years from 1971 to 1975, during which time there was plenty of changeover but the core of the band remained Brock, woodwind player Nik Turner, and an up-and-coming bassist named Lemmy Kilmister. This era saw the releases of the band’s most beloved studio albums and, more importantly, a live document from the end of their 1972 tour by the name of Space Ritual.

By this stage Hawkwind had enjoyed a surprising, if not outrageous, level of success, having just landed their then-current studio album Doremi Fasol Latido in the UK top 20.… Read more...

Rock On! Wednesday, 18 January – Iron Butterfly, Spooky Tooth, The Pretty Things, Traffic, Humble Pie & Ultimate Spinach

Psychedelic, heavy, prog and more innovating sounds spanning the late 60s and the early 70s – Wednesday September 15th. Dan’s pick of the week: Iron Butterfly (In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida), Spooky Tooth (The Last Puff), Traffic (John Barleycorn Must Die), The Pretty Things (Parachute), Humble Pie (Rock On) & Ultimate Spinach (Ultimate Spinach).

Ultimate Classic Rock: “Over the years, Iron Butterfly’s most famous song, “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,” has become a comedic punchline, a whipping boy for the overblown and pretentious aspects of rock ‘n’ roll. But strip away the years of abuse and there’s a classic.

Iron Butterfly grew out of the Los Angeles scene of the mid-’60s. Their sound blended the dramatic sense of the early Doors with the garage spirit of the Seeds and the Music Machine.
