Rumplestiltskin / Rumplestiltskin (1970)

 

United Kingdom

Hard Rock, Blues Rock, Heavy Psychedelic

This one has just way too much soul flavour for me to get much musical pleasure from it. There are occasional moments that are enjoyable, but the band never seems to be able to fully unleash the furious guitar crunch I so desire with this type of music. The momentum is there, and it's there, and IT'S THERE and then...wait wtf, where did it go? That scenario seems to play out with almost every track. There are about four songs here out the eight (that's one half or 50% for you math-heads out there) that I consider somewhat worthwhile. Make Me Make You and Pate De Foie Gras start out decently enough but end up suffering from the fate I described above. And the self-titled title track and Squadron Leader Johnson are not too bad either, but never quite get beyond the realms of just good. The remaining tracks I could do without though. Some people may dig this, but it ain't my scene man.
