Crow - Crow Music 1969

From my hometown, Minneapolis blues-rock quintet Crow was formed in 1967 by front man Dave Wagner, guitarist Dick Wiegland, his bassist brother Larry, and keyboardist Kink Middlemist. Originally dubbed 'South 40' they added former Castaways drummer Denny Craswell to the line-up prior to the recording of their debut: "Crow Music" in 1969. The single "Evil Woman Don't You Play your Games with Me" cracked the U.S. top 20, even though the distinct horn arrangement was overdubbed against the band's wishes. (Th song was famously cover by Black Sabbath for their debut single, and remains the only cover ever recorded by Sabbath). "Crow by Crow" followed in 1970, although the single "Cottage Cheese" failed to attract much attention, and in the wake of 1971's "Mosiac" Crow disbanded, although Wagner resurfaced in 1973 with a solo L.P. "David Wagner D/B/A Crow."  Official Webpage

T2 - It'll All Work Out in Boomland 1970

It'll All Work Out in Bloomland is the debut album from England's T2, and is also their best known album. It is regarded as an excellent album by the prog community.
From "Light in the Attic": The rise of power trio T2 in 1970 was rapid; open air festivals; headlining residencies at the Marquee Club;  appearances at virtually every major venue in London. Their debut album was released, they seemed poised for breakthrough. As the band recalled, they were playing the Marquee Club with John Lennon & Jimi Hendrix, hangin' out backstage , which was all to the good. But people were coming foreward saying "We can't find your album anywhere." In short order, the band fell apart.
Still their sole album for Decca, has become well established among progressive and psychedelic collectors. - even techno and D.J. crowds. The fact that it has done so without hype is a testament to the innane quality of the music. The album is packed with melodic acoustic passages, frenzied fuzz guitar workouts, not to mention acid -trip induced musical and lyrical content. It is, in every way, an extraordinary album, one of rock's best kept secrets, on par with other major works that form the rock music cannon of that time."
