BLUE CHEER

years ago I read a Lee Dorian intie talking about this band being an influence on Cathedral, I finally checked em out few weeks back and I'm getting into it, I like the drummer he's heavy as shit! but the craziest thing is that they're still playing today and no one ever talks about them.

Yes I heard their music for the first time few months ago,
it was quite heavy for the time... Maybe one of the "fucking heavy" hard rock bands.

CHEER BLUE CHEER

Did you get the first album? (Vincebus Eruptum)
Asking b/c they were heavy on the first couple albums only, they went flower power after that, then disbanded, then reunited etc etc...

RIP Dickie Peterson

I got the album with a blue cover!

From about 1969...

I'm color blind, but it must be that one (with the band picture on it) and it's from 68.

You probably listened too much of JURZUM.

Would you bet it on your left ball?

Impossible, I heard no flower noise...

I'll bet on both balls that the first album is from 68.

1968-69 had some quite cool very early/ proto hard rock...

I listened to SLADE or TEN YEARS AFTER lately, some songs are quite cool.

I grew up on TYA! My dad used to play it all the time in the car

Which albums do you know?

'Watt' and 'Cricklewood Green'. He might have had a few 45' vinyls also, but he just compiled everything on cassettes.

I have the "Ssssh" album.
You know it?

Nope... will ask my old man

Did you check it?

I heard another album of the band which was more relaxed...
"Ssssh" isn't far from hard rock sometimes.
