Slink Rand & Craig Moore - Return Of The Slinkenwolf

Two founding members of legendary 60's bands GONN and ILMO SMOKEHOUSE reunite for their first album of all new material together since 1969! Staying absolutely true to their roots, legendary midwestern guitarist Slink Rand and bassist/vocalist Craig 'Wolf' Moore have written and produced an album of brand new classic rock with roots firmly within foundational late 60's/70's hard-hitting bluesy riff-rock. Moore calls it ''Woodstock Meets AC/DC'' or ''Montrose Meets Mountain''. All tracks are new & original except for a unique arrangement of the classic ''Summertime'' based on the 1962 Ricky Nelson/James Burton version that was buried on a B-side. This track is bound to start a ''chicken-or-the-egg'' conversation among 60's garage rock fans. (Rand was in fact a member of the latter day GONN of ''Nuggets'' fame. In 1969 Slink, Craig, and Gerry Gabel from GONN all joined Freddie Tieken's American Music Band just before it became ILMO SMOKEHOUSE. They then recorded the eponymous album that was eventually released worldwide by Roulette Records in 1971.) While the 'SLINKENWOLF' album is primarily heavy rock, the track ''Exiles On Main Street'' stands out as a power pop anthem, describing the pair as young musicians learning their craft in the tri-state area around Keokuk, Iowa, cruising Main Street and being amazed by the explosion of music during the Summer Of Love. The album is titled for their familiar nicknames, 'Sink' and Wolf', and anyone who loves Cream, Mountain, early Led Zeppelin, Blue Cheer & Black Sabbath, and heavy blues the likes of Savoy Brown, Killing Floor, Muddy Waters, etc, should relate at once. Truly aimed at the indie store classic rock audience. Limited edition colored vinyl, with custom inner sleeve and poster!
