Dirty Tricks

'S/T'

Polydor, UK, 1975

2383 351

HANDS DOWN one of the best British hard rock bands working the mid seventies live circuit. I saw them many times supporting and headlining at clubs and they always delivered. As a trad four piece they mined the heavy blues rock niche very much like a cross between Bad Company and Led Zeppelin with a bit of Budgie thrown in for good measure. Vocalist Kenny Stewart had one of the most distinctive voices of the day, like a mad combination of Paul Rodgers and Roger Chapman whilst guiatrist John Fraser Binnie ripped his axe to shreds.

Some great songs on this one including the moody, blues belter 'Wait For Saturday', the appropriately titled 'Back Off Evil' and 'Too Much Wine'. In fact there's not a weak track.

Produced by the enigmatic and now totally disapeared Rodger Bain, the man responsible for the first three Sabbath albums and also records by Budgie and Judas Priest.

Pressing: Polydor, UK, 1975

Vinyl: Brilliant clean and shiny condition - I would say unplayed. No spindle marks visible and no other signs of use. Grades as shop fresh MINT!

Cover: Again, virtually no signs of use. Issued in a beautifully illustrated fully laminated cover. Sharp corners, one microscopic ding, no bends, no ring wear, no split seams and no creases. Spine is stiff, straight and completely uncrushed. A little lamination lift near spine on rear. Beautiful and impossible to find like this 43 years after release. Grades as top MINT-!

Inserts: None
