BLIND RAVAGE
\ CANADA - CRESCENT STREET - CS 1874
PLAYS EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT!
BLIND RAVAGE were a strong underground band that played hearty fuzz rock mixed with a wave of blues. RARE PROMOTIONAL 1971 FIRST PRINTING of the only LP issued by the mighty BLIND RAVAGE: Check out the sound of BLIND RAVAGE by clicking on each line below: BLIND RAVAGE - STRANGE POWER / 1971 - YouTubeBlind Ravage My Life
The dictionary describes "Blind Ravage" as "Reckless Devastation." This Montreal band recorded the highly rated 1971 album with one goal in mind: to produce some of the hardest, most fuzzed out guitar and swirling organ to ever come out of Canada. And they do deliver a hard rock sound with psychedelic overtones and some highly-rated excellent guitar & gushing organ all throughout. Apart from a great way to kicking the album off with Susie Q, all other tracks on the album are originals. One thing noticable is the band lacks diversity, but two tracks, "Disaster" and "Loser" quickly change that, catching the ear in a hurry Blind Ravage were from Montreal, Quebec. They were John Charbonneau, Bob Dufour, Serge Fleury and Andre Deguire and formed in 1969 -- played the club circuit for a couple of years, performing mainly as a cover band of heavy rock classics. Their hard guitar rock sound was likely born from those nights covering the likes of Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple. They released their only album in 1972 with the Crescent Street label. The album was a nice collection of original songs along with an inventive cover of the classic, Suzie Q. Elsewhere "Friday Fish" is a deep album track from this release that never made it as a single but it is definitely one of the best tunes on the album. Then, "My Life" has a gritty funk chops that unleash into searing fuzz guitar ...other tracks are along the lines of the rocked up sound of Jarvis Street review" who issued their only (monter) Lp in 1970 ...Unfortunately, this was the only release from BLIND RAVAGE as the members parted ways in 1973. Copies of Blind Ravage are heavily sought after, rarely ever turning up (you see more Plastic Cloud Lp's than Blind Ravage for instance) ... here is a collection worthy copy with minty disc (see full details below)

CONDITION: The Cover: Solid and colorful, the cover has always been wear prone and few and far copies have ever been without wear, this one has moderate wear, calling it VG to be safe, with all things considered it is collectible, especially with the clean vinyl .. no split saeams, no delete marks, no writing and fresh colors. There is a very small promotional stamp on back cover.
The Vinyl: both sides are shiny and clear from any major problems, rated "EX" (excellent) may have visually a very light hair scuff or so but first thing you notice is "clean" ... plays very well with excellent audio ...clean Crescent labels.
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
