Another obscure band from the late 60’s and early 70’s. I saw them once. They were the warm up band but I cannot remember who the headliners were. The lineup I saw was a power trio. There were a lot of those in that time period. What a great time for hard rock!
Nice simple stuff; sounds kinda like CCR and Bad Company.
had their Medusa album and always thought it rocked. good kick ass music.
Trapeze? Never heard of them before but this is a gem! I also enjoyed the earlier Dust postings. There is a treasure trove of obscure bands from that period that deserve to be heard. Thanks for the great music!
Denny, ever hear of the band May Blitz? They were another power trio from the late 60’s/early 70’s. They were like a cross between Cream and Black Sabbath with some King Crimson and Pink Floyd thrown in. They recorded two LPs, both of which were totally awesome. Here is a link to their first LP at youtube. Check em out:

First I have ever heard of them which is a real surprise since KSHE in St. Louis played a lot of stuff by obscure bands back in the late 60’s early 70’s. KSHE was one of the first FM stations in the country to get into album rock and play long cuts from rock albums that you wouldn’t hear on AM radio.
Denny – Being that you grew up near St. Louis, how about featuring some Pavlov’s Dog sometime? They were pretty big around 1975-ish; I used to see them from time to time at a nightclub in Palatine, Illinois, a far-northwest suburb of Chicago. Their lead singer sounded a bit like Geddy Lee.
I remember one of their albums was called At the Sound of the Bell.
Yeah, that was their second. Their first album was ‘Pampered Menial’ and the cover art featured the creepiest dog you ever had nightmares about. But ‘Pampered Menial’ had much better music; check out one of the YouTube renditions of ‘Julia’ – very haunting vocals. And ‘Theme from Subway Sue’ is to die for (& you’ll love that title after you listen to the lyrics). But none of my friends have any, ah, dealer connections any more, so I don’t listen to them as much as I used to.
