<br />Fat - Fat 1970 ,Psychedelic Rock<br /><br />Extremely Accomplished Debut from this Massachusetts Band, Originally Released <br />in the Us on RCA. Following the Eponymous Album’s Success, the Band Toured Extensively <br />as the Opening Act for the Allman Brothers. Fat ’s Mix of East Coast Blues and West <br />Coast Psychedelia, Strongly Influenced by Quicksilver Messenger Service Et Al, <br />Could have Propelled the Band Into the Big Time, but an Unfortunate Drug Bust Led <br />RCA to Cancel a Planned Follow-up Album, and Try as They Might, the Group were <br />Unable to Secure Another Recording Contract, Although Two Further Albums were <br />Released in the Late ‘70s, Both of which were Produced by Ex-mountain Man, <br />Felix Papallardi. Over the Years Fat Toured with a Host of Rock Luminaries, <br />Sharing the Stage With, Amongst Others, Grand Funk Railroad, Little Richard, <br />Bonnie and Delaney, Johnny Winter and Robin Trower, but Unfortunately their <br />Success as a Live Band Didn’t Translate Into Commercial Success.<br /><br />Tracklist<br /><br />A1 House On The Corner 0:00<br />A2 Black Sunday 3:10<br />A3 Mine Eyes Have Seen 6:29<br />A4 Lonely Lady 10:40<br />A5 Journey 15:25<br />B1 Shape I'm In 20:27<br />B2 Country Girl 22:56<br />B3 Over The Hill 28:40<br />B4 Duck Sweat 31:52<br />B5 Highway 35:56<br /><br />Credits<br /><br />Bass, Vocals – Guy DeVito (2)<br />Drums, Vocals – William Benjamin<br />Engineer – Roy Cicala, Shelly Yokas*<br />Lead Guitar – Michael Benson (2)<br />Lead Guitar, Vocals – James Kaminski<br />Producer – Eddie Jason<br />Vocals, Jew's Harp – Peter Newland (tracks: A1)<br />Written-By – Kaminski* (tracks: A1, A3, A5, B1, B4), Benson* (tracks: A1, B2, B3), Newland*
