AHEAD RINGS OUT

ON THE BLACK EYE ISLAND LABEL :: ILPS-9101 .

Blodwyn Pig were a British blues–rock band, founded in 1968 by guitarist–vocalist–songwriter Mick Abrahams.Abrahams left Jethro Tull, due to a falling-out with Tull vocalist Ian Anderson, after their debut album, This Was, was released, and formed Blodwyn Pig with Jack Lancaster (saxophone and flute), Andy Pyle (bass guitar), and Ron Berg (drums).With Abrahams and Lancaster in the lead, Blodwyn Pig recorded two albums, "Ahead rings out" in 1969 and "Getting to this" in 1970. Both reached the Top Ten of the UK Albums Chart and charted in the United States; "Ahead rings out" displayed a jazzier turn on the heavy blues–rock that formed the band's core rooted in the British 1960s rhythm and blues scene from which sprang groups like The Yardbirds, Free and eventually Led Zeppelin. This is their brilliant debut album, and a true classic !!!!!!
