THE GREEN SHAG! "GOOD RECORDS FOR GOOD PEOPLE!"
FREEDOM / THROUGH THE YEARS
1971 ABC USA 1st WHITE LABEL PROMO PRESS
••••• HARD ROCKING HEAVY CRUSHER BLUES PSYCH! Possibly the group's heaviest riffing album as evidenced by wild funky wah-wah guitar on "Freestone" and the Zeppelin-esque hard blues riff on "Get Yourself Together" and wild free jamming of "Toe Grabber." Killer stuff, sought after by the underground crowd for a reason. ESSENTIAL UNDERGROUND HARD BLUES PSYCH.
