Freeport - Freeport (Vinyl Rip) 1969

What an uplifting experience to finally find someone say something positive about this album, and to do so coherently and rationally. Thanks ochsfan. And while I may not be quite as ecstatic over it as he is, I do share the sentiments that it is a very good, very solid, and very consistent album. The sounds are semi-commercially oriented hard rock, featuring vocal harmony and great guitar work. The fact that it was released on a label that is highly collectible among psych circles may have hampered it somewhat, as the album is really not psychedelic. Big fans of that genre are typically the only ones to even know about the album, and often trash it as disappointing. Their loss! It will appeal to most fans of harder rock, especially those that love the added bonus of great early 70's period flavor. The album was released in Dec. 1970, and the band hailed from Cleveland.
