Chariot - Chariot (1971 us, great hard blues rock)




Hard rocking US power trio spun off from '66-'68 Los Angeles Knack. Dates of release are usually given as 1968, but it is believed to have been as late as 1971 Straight forward, hard rock with soulful raspy vocals, tight playing, tight songs Hard rocking, not really psychy.

A mainstream play at a radio friendly Grand Funk/ James Gang sound Guitar playing is tasteful, and in service to the song, therefore, no long crazed solos Overall, a solid and enjoyable late 60's/early 70's hard rock album.

  1. Thanks Marios! That's weird about the uncertainty regarding the year of release. For whatever it's worth, if that is the original cover art it looks a lot more like 1971 than 1968 to me.
    Not really important anyway. Great music!

  6. Grande álbum. Esse é daqueles álbuns que se apaixona desde a primeira audição. Na estante a primeira prensagem americana.
