 1970 USA POWER BLUES ROCK JAMS & GARAGE ROCK TUNES

               KILLER RARE PRIVATE PRESSING! 

     The ALAN FRANKLIN EXPLOSION                 

                    USA - PRIVATE (HORNE RECORDS - JC 888)

COLLECTION WORTHY !!

VERY RARE hard to to find 1970 LP, here, the first and BEST pressng ... as indicated in the ACID ARCHIVES bible this pressing is the preferred issue for it contains NO digital altering, rather features the "original" analog frequencies....

A somewhat legendary Florida underground garagey hardrock blowout featuring young guitarist Alan Franklin with a small backing band on what sounds like an amphetamine spree. One to file next to Boa, Smokin' Willie and Stagefright for wild bonehead lo-fi realness.

What Franklin has in his favor is engagingly raw, garage-like production and performance (the high-end snare drums are especially unusual for the genre), as well as relative economy; there are no long solos to be found on the six short cuts on Side One. While the side long "Climax," is a bombastic frenzied fuzz-mania jammer that'll remind some of the RAW POWER LP by 'Strange.' ...

From the back cover liner notes:

This wild savage approach to hard rock blues is a combination of vicious jungle rock rhythms with very tight and lightening fast rhythm and lead progressions and a bass that goes right inside of you. The vocals are wild and insane yet loving and caressing. The sound that these four cats put out is so fantastic that you won't be able to turn it off. This is a new sound, a sound as wild and free as the Climax itself. For the Climax is made up of four rebellious wild fanatical musicians who literally go insane on stage, causing riots at every performance. People are going all the way with the Blues Climax. If you like hard rock music then you will love the Blues Climax.

The Cover:  THICK cover is near  "EX" (excellent) having no problems and remains a great collection copy..no seams splits, no bends, no writing...has but a round white sticker at top left corner 

The vinyl; all smooth and clean, "EX" (excellent) and plays excellent = CLEAN! Both Horne Record labels look great...

keeper!

A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTION !
