<p>One of the most exciting bands of the British Blues Boom era, Steamhammer was powered up by guitarist Martin Pugh and vocalist Kieran White. After gaining a reputation for steaming ‘live’ performances they were signed to CBS and released this debut album in 1969.</p>
<p>It is packed with dynamic performances, including ‘Junior’s Wailing’ - a track released as a single that became a hit in Germany (and was also successfully covered by Status Quo). Also among the tracks on the LP are versions of B.B. King’s ‘You’ll Never Know’ and Eddie Boyd’s ‘Twenty-Four Hours’ and a two-part arrangement called ‘Water’, which introduces and completes a satisfying album.</p>
