- CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
- Sir Lord Baltimore
"Kingdom Come" 1970 (USA)
- A truly unsung
landmark in the development of "heavy metal" music, SLB's debut LP had
several things going for it: Louis Dambra's guitar wankery which sounds
like the missing link between Tony Iommi and Eddie Van Halen; John
Garner, the greatest singing drummer in rock history because he sounds
totally crazed at both; and their secret weapon, producer Edwin H.
"Eddie" Kramer, who cut his teeth as an engineer on Hendrix's "Electric
Ladyland" and later went on to produce some of KISS's best albums.
"Kingdom Come" and Baltimore's disappointing self-titled second (and
final) album have been reissued together on one CD.
