When this album was first released, I bought it on cassette and nearly wore it out. Then the cassette got lost, and I forgot about it until recently, so I found the CD on Amazon and purchased it. It’s even better than I remembered. Frijid Pink had an early metal sound like Blue Cheer and Cactus, but they kept to their blues roots more and were more melodic. Their version of House of the Rising Sun is simply stunning in its power and drive. The other songs on the album are nearly as good, with no filler anywhere. If you like blues rock with fuzz guitar, you’ll love this album.

Frijid pink left off where MC5 did, Loud!Unfortunately the original lineup didn’t stay for long. By the third album there was only one member left from first album. I’m not saying this was the greatest band, but certainly if you’re into early heavy rock it’s a keeper.

I still have and play this Album on my 8-track in my Garage, just last week, while working on my Street Rods. I have been afraid of this tape getting “ate” by my Player. I never knew much about this group, as those damn 8 tracks, didn’t have much for a cover/artists info/etc. I recently did a search for another Blues Favorite 8 track, “Blues Helping” by Love Sculpture (Dave Edmunds-guitar/vocals)from 1968. I bought it and then saw that the Frijid Pink was available now too ! I’m Happy ! But, Now I have to get CD player for Garage !
