BLUES CREATION (see also: Creation / Dew / Carmen Maki & Oz) - BLUES CREATION - Demon & Eleven Children +1 - EU Once Again Limited Edition - VERY RARE - LISTENprice: 55,00 PLN / 13,75 EUR
A revelation! Released in the summer of 1971, the second album by this great Japanese band is a splendid combination of the style of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, at times pushed almost to the extreme - with elements of two lead guitars in the style of Wishbone Ash! Plenty of surprising, ultra-heavy riffs, plenty of changes of tempo and mood, exemplary, slightly bluesy playing by the guitarist and zero filler. The only, small flaw of this sensational album was the vocalist's not entirely convincing English... But who really cares? Alongside the first two records by Flower Travellin' Band, this is probably the most cult album in the history of Japanese heavy rock, and in the original on the Denon label (and in almost perfect condition) it is currently worth 1000 dollars! Additionally included is an 8-minute live version of "Nightmare" (different from the one on the CD "Live!"), previously unreleased on CD! A must! Condition: New, sealed. (JL) -

BLUES CREATION (see also: Creation / Dew / Carmen Maki & Oz) - BLUES CREATION - Live! 1971 (+2) - EU Expanded Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
The live album recorded in 1971 had a somewhat more bluesy character than the LP "Demon...", although the band played even these well-known standards in their own way - very heavily and intensely - with countless extended improvisations. To tell the truth, I cannot recall any Anglo-American band that played so juicily and so mightily live! Compared with the old Japanese CD this edition has two more tracks - from the same concert! 74 minutes in total! Excellent sound quality. A must! -

BLUES CREATION (see also: Creation / Dew / Carmen Maki & Oz) - BLUES CREATION - Live 1971 (2LP) - FRA Absinthe Expanded Limited Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 170,00 PLN / 42,50 EUR
Recorded in 1971 (unfortunately not released on vinyl in its day - only on CD in 1998), the live album was in the same, very intense heavy blues rock style (Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and the Allman Brothers Band in one) as the brilliant studio albums "Demon And Eleven Children" and "Carmen Maki + Blues Creation" (both from 1971). Besides that the band presented several blues standards, serving merely as a pretext for heavy, dynamic, guitar-driven improvisations based on the mighty playing of the rhythm section. To tell the truth, I do not recall any Anglo-American formation that played so juicily and so uncompromisingly live! Compared with the Japanese CD this edition has three more tracks (one more than the European CD from the same concert) and - attention! - a different version, recorded a week later, of the track "Nightmare", unreleased on any LP. Excellent sound quality. A must!
