Roy Weard and Last Post - Fallout (Superb UK Private pressing Acid Rock LP from 1981)


Superb UK private pressing LP from 1981, Acid rock band, post DOGWATCH, they supported Hawkwind and played some festivals, the album was only sold at gigs and is very hard to come by.


A fantastic album from 1981. A strange, atmospheric, haunting hard rock with great guitar playing by Steve Bensusan and haunting vocals by Roy Weard with great back vocals by bassist Ronnie Raymond and Steve Bensusan. The line-up is completed by Paul Watson on keyboards, Dave Owen on guitar and flute, Mel Evans on drums and with the help of John Trelawney on trumpet. Roy Weard is still a fantastic showman you can see on the net with the legendary Wooden Lion. This recording is like a more soft and progressive Blue Oyster Cult but the melodic guitar soli are as good as Buck Dharma's one. All tracks are recommended but my preferences go to "Lost in A Memory" and "On the blink". Very very recommended ! Certainly one of the best albums of the eighties when classic music from the 70's was not well represented. (reviewed by francklassal on rateyourmusic)
