Pulse - Pulse 1968 New Haven,CT,United States,<br />Blues Rock, Psychedelic Rock<br /><br />From New Haven, Connecticut, The Pulse evolved out of The Bram Rigg Set and The Shags, and were originally known as The Pulse Of Burritt Bradley.<br /><br />The track, Burritt Bradley, is a surreal slice of psychedelic madness, which can also be found on the Beyond The Calico Wall (LP & CD) compilation.<br /><br />By contrast, their album is a furious heavy rock affair and rated highly by some collectors.<br /><br />Tommy Violante left in 1969, although the band soldiered on until '72, playing mostly rehashed Cream-type stuff.<br /><br />Pulse (originally named "The Pulse of Burritt Bradley," after a name they saw on a grave stone) released two singles: "Can Can Girl" / "Burritt Bradley" and "My Old Boy" / "Another Woman".<br /><br />Pulse initially included Augusto, Violante, Bennett Segal (drums), Peter Neri (lead guitar), Richard "Sno Whyte" Bednarzcyk (organ), and Paul Rosanno and Lance Gardner both playing bass.<br /><br />The group honed their skills for almost a year just jamming in the studio, but by the time their first album was released both Violante and Gardner had departed.<br /><br />The self-titled album Pulse was a real accomplishment. Not only was the playing and songwriting solid, the heavy style and complex arrangements seem a few years ahead of their time <br />by Fuzz, Acid 'n' Flowers<br /><br />Tracklist<br /><br /><br />A1 Too Much Lovin 0:00<br /><br />A2 Another Woman 3:00<br /><br />A3 Hypnotized 10:00<br /><br />A4 Thanks For Thinking Of Me But It's Alright 14:14<br /><br /><br />B1 Lo Down 17:49<br /><br />B2 She's Killin' Me 21:24<br /><br />B3 Garden Of Love 24:53<br /><br />B4 Amassilation 28:12<br /><br />B5 My Old Boy 33:38<br /><br /><br />10.
