FINCHLEY BOYS – EVERLASTING TRIBUTES - 1972 (US) heavy acid blues

Hailing from Champaign, lllinois, where they formed in January 1963, the band recorded the material for their album in Chicago during 1968 and 1969, although it was not released until 1972. They do not appear to have released any 45s at all. Practice Sessions is a reissue of their album but with five additional tracks. The best cuts on the album are their reinterpretation of Ray Davies' I'm Not Like Everybody Else and the superb It All Ends. Most of their material is very bluesy, as one might expect for a Chicago band of this era and to appreciate their music you'll need to be a fan of the blues.

Illinois band's killer and ultra rare album from 1972. An amazing blast of heavy psychedelic, blues based acid rock, which includes a killer cover of The Kinks' "I'm Not Like Anybody Else" complete with mind melting lead guitar work. "Outcast" is filled with a really angry teenage angst whilst the bands version of "Restrictions" has some amazing twin wah- wah acid guitar. The band were included on the legendary 'Endless Journey' comps and rightly so..

Highly recommended!
