If you think blue cheers first two albums where shit then your ears are fucking musically deaf, so go check it out because those two albums are so underrated in helping the development of rock music in general, i understand why you wouldnt like this newer blue cheer stuff but seriously dude go check out their old releases.

Fruits and Icebergs is a better song.... I can't believe you're comparing listening to Blue Cheer w/ voting for Obama. BTW Some of the best I've found are garage bands. Ever heard of Wicked Lady or Bulbous Creation? Fucking snobby asshole

Well...everyone likes what they like. There's no accounting for taste. After all, a bunch of peopled had the wool pulled over their eyes & chose to voted for Obama. Now that they're seeing the truth they're regretting it. It's like buying a CD only to find out there was just one good song on it. Anyhow..enjoy Blue Cheer but don't be afraid to grow.

I get that U dig rock. But an understanding of music, the chromatic scale and an appreciation for singing & playing in the same key as the rest of the band is a skill set a person has to develope. Just because a band gets to record their music doesn't make them good musicians. Garage bands are a dime a dozen. This recording is definitely from the moldy basement of a stinky garage. Leave it there & move on.

It sucked in '69 (I was 17) & it super sucks now. Reminds me of hippy dippy San Francisco wanna be psychedelic crap. Don't get me wrong. I loves me some hard rock. But between this & the Grateful Dead, I don't know which sucks more.

I've got this as an Australian 7" single. Excellent song, but I prefer the flipside "Fool". R.I.P Dickie Peterson - you were a genius and will be missed. (died on the 12th October).

Think this may be around the time they started to loose that total abandon freeform style the first couple LP's had. This is cool though,thanks.
