Starting out as an electric blues group in the '60s, Steamhammer
transformed into a hard progressive rock group on this 1970 album.
A highly collectable album in the British prog scene, the guitarist
and vocalist of this group were both, in fact, hardworking session
musicians who made their names working with Rod Stewart on his
debut solo album. Guitarist and vocalist Martin Pugh and Martin
Quittenton co-wrote "Maggie May" with Rod Stewart, and
extraordinarily this, the group's third album, features
ex-Tangerine Dream keyboardist Steve Jolliffe, who was responsible
for the progressive, keyboard-dominated sound of the album.
Although throughout they maintain their electric blues roots, this
album is a fairly awkward and mediocre transition period for the
group. However, hardcore collectors of progressive rock will find
much to delight in. ~ Skip Jansen
