🔥 New Epysode of Vinyl Relics! 🔥
This week we’re dropping the needle on the self-titled debut by May Blitz, one of the fuzz-heavy, riff-soaked monsters of the early ’70s.
Raw, loud, weird, and absolutely deserving of more love.
If you’re into heavy psych or proto-metal, this one’s for you.

This Thursday we drop a new Epysode that features an album that had two big UK hits, but did nothing in the US. It was produced by Gus Dudgeon and had Elton John’s backing band (and Rick Wakeman and Ralph McTell for good measure). Interesting story and groovy tunes you won’t want to miss.
