Underrated guitar god Frank Marino at his best captured his raw energetic style of soloing and covering Voodoo Chile and Red House of Jimi Hendrix. Orgasmic improvisational guitar journey into deep space.

Ten Years After – Live at the Fillmore East 1970 (2001)
Heavy jams by English blues rock band Ten Years After recorded live at the Fillmore East, New York City on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 February 1970.
Toad – Open Fire: Live in Basel 1972 (2005)
Most energetic live album of Swiss hard rockers Toad. Tons of killer guitar solos from Vic Vergeat and stunning covers of Jimi Hendrix songs Red House and Who Knows. Recorded in Basel.
Friedhof – Friedhof (1971)
Ultra rare 1971 German underground heavy psych guitar jam in the JPT Scare Band vein. Wild basement wah fuzz guitar blasters.
Free Action Inc. – Plays Eddy Korsche Rock And Blues (1970)
Obscure Italian band with crazy Hammond and psychedelic blues guitar. It sounds like massive boogie freakout.
The Psycheground Group – Psycheground (1970)
“A sweet psychedelic set, but one with very mysterious origins — originally recorded as a sound library session, by a group that was really the better-known Nuova Idea! The album’s definitely got a vibe that fits its sound library roots — all instrumental, with a bit less bravado than most psyche albums of this type — almost more of a focus on the rhythms, which stretch out strongly amidst the Hammond and guitar solos on the set.”
Cannabis India – SWF Session 1973 (2009)
“Pure instrumental organ rock that many ELP fans quietly wished their favorite band would indulge more in. No deep lyrics, gonzo improvisations or lovelorn ballads here, just three hungry players with a taste for this new sound in popular music.”
London Underground – Honey Drops (2010)
Very cool prog album of instrumental covers played in improvisational manner. It sounds like Deep Purple became organ-oriented. Lots of Hammond drive and fun.
Endless Boogie – Twenty Minute Jam Getting Out of the City (2011)
“Meet Endless Boogie, the best-kept secret in New York’s rock scene. They have the best name (taken from John Lee Hooker’s 1971 album), the best onstage vibe and the best head-nodding jams. In a sea of derivative and freshly outfitted young bands, Endless Boogie — with a combined age of 169 and members who count Canned Heat as one of their influences — doesn’t have a big agenda. They just want to rock with you, preferably all night long. “We try boogie sometimes, but boogie’s hard,” says guitarist Jesper Eklow (aka “The Governor”) self-effacingly. “Boogie takes skill and we haven’t honed those skills yet.” The band’s sound is a meltdown of metal, psychedelic and classic rock with a heavy dose of riffage, a kick-ass beat and super-cryptic lyrics.”
