Felt was formed in Alabama in the late '60s around the talents of Myke Jackson (guitars), Mike Neel (drums), Tommy Gilstrap (bass), Stan Lee (guitars), and Allan Dalrymple (keyboards). The band's self-titled album, released on the small Nasco label in 1971, contains half-a-dozen original songs written for the most part by Jackson. The mostly blues-styled songs on this album are full of great guitar work and contain fine Beatles-esque harmony vocals. While most of this album has a blues feeling to it, some of the songs hint of progressive rock with swirling keyboards, intense drumming, and blistering guitar solos. The album has recently been discovered for its musical excellence and has become a very rare collectors' item. Guitarist Lee would later go on to become a member of punk band the Dickies in the late '70s. This welcome re-release by Akarma Records features a reproduction of the original foldout album graphics in the mini-LP-styled Akarmapack.

The singer has a limited voice and some of the song structures are far from original. Still, it has the right sound, the right feel and i keep playing the album. 'look at the sun' has a very nice Beatles-feel but the other tracks are heavy on organ en fuzzguitar and will appeal to those looking for more early hard(er) rock.
Highly recommended!Rip from CD 256@ (full artwork included)

This is a great album that everyone should hear. Felt had a lot of really good ideas and melodies in their songs. They also had that great touch of spacey atmospheres and blues licks. Thank you.
