they had to record on a dock no studio could accommodate the wall of amps too loud

Guy says "Kashmir", Dick says "take me along when you go" and they're all "har har har!!" 'cause it had to do with drugs I guess.

Although Cream and Hendrix were there before , this bunch was the template for every up and coming "power trio"......What times, that such tracks were staple top 40 fare..........."Kashmir"...

Too bad this is a lip sync, but tech issues probably made a live recording impossible. Would have blown out their mics.

I know this is stupid but if this is even late 1968, how do these guy's hair get so long? I mean in the USA It would have been very rare to see hair over the ears in say 1966 maybe a little in '67. In Britain it would be a little more believable. I mean generally you would not see hair this long till late '69 or '70 and that would be a long shot. The general public did not have hairstyles like this say "college age" till '72

If this is supposed to be the birth of "heavy metal", there damn sure shoulda been an abortion.

Eddie Cochran version- superb!The Who - pretty good!This group- basically a jokeAnd I've heard people compare this group to Iron Butterfly, which is the worst shit to ever make a record.

Larry Naylor

Nikki Haley should sing this.

Douglas Green

Karl Fisher

These guys were different! They never made it in the mainstream, but they were kind of cool in a funky kind of way.
