ROCK ISLAND - Rock Island - US Gear Fab Edition - LAST COPY

A very good (and at moments downright sensational), unfortunately only album by an American formation playing heavy, guitar-driven rock with organ - sometimes more psychedelic, sometimes brushing against blues, folk or prog. Some compare this very good (from start to finish) record to a 'gentler Euclid' and there is probably a lot of truth in that! Two years later the band (with a different bassist) changed its name to Rain and recorded an excellent album in the style of the late The Zombies. Highly recommended! (JL)
