Description
In 1969, countless power trios were trying to fill the void Cream just left. Few if any could, but it did lead to some pretty good hard rock. Josephus was among these power trios, but are a cut above many. Their playing is clean and precise, and their writting turns lots of corners, with unique takes on standard blues changes, and unexpected breaks and codas. This band understand riffs. The production here is very basic--nothing like the buffered glow of Cream's studio work--but these guys are such good players that the lack of gloss actually adds to the punch of the music. Josefus also sticks to this riff based rock, making a quality record from start to finish by avoiding the 60s experiments that marred many rock albums of the era. An aside: pay particualr attention to proposition. There is a wonderful suprise there you don't want to miss. There is a lot of mediocrity in 4th or 5th tier 60s rock, but Josephus represents anything but. You can't go wrong with this. (By William R. Nicholas ) YOU CAN NOT FIND A NICER COPY.
