<br />Goliath - Hot Rock and Thunder 1972 , US,Hard Rock, Psychedelic Rock, Prog Rock<br /><br />Another fabulous private pressing, this time from Goliath, <br />a supremely talented 5-piece progressive hard rock outfit from Kentucky.<br /><br />Released in 1972 on the Bridges label, Goliath’s guitar, bass, <br />drums keyboards and vocal style owes much to the influence of Deep Purple, <br />although vocalist Jim Kitchen can sound very much like Robert Plant at times.<br /><br />The band, always tight and composed, storms through 7 finely-crafted self-penned songs <br />with flair and originality.<br /><br />Hot Rock And Thunder, with it’s stunning artwork, <br />is Goliath’s only known release (confusingly, another band of the same name had already <br />released an album on CBS in 1970) and an album that would not have been disgraced by <br />comparison with many of the hard rock offerings of the time and still <br />stands up extremely well today<br /><br />Tracklist<br /><br />A1 We/re Not Afraid 0:00<br />A2 Tell Me You're Satisfied 5:16<br />A3 Dead Drunk Screamin' 9:34<br />A4 Hot Rock And Thunder 15:38<br />B1 The Apocalypse 21:40<br />B2 Silver Girl 26:06<br />B3 Ordinary Guy 29:11 <br /><br />Credits<br /><br />Bass – Bill Peters, Vocals<br />Drums – Steve Peters (7)<br />Keyboards [Moog, Vocals, Grand Piano, Clavinet] – Dave Wood<br />Lead Guitar – Paul Bays<br />Vocals – Jim Kitchen<br />
