HOODOO RHYTHM DEVILS "The Barbecue Of Deville" [CD]
2020 - Rock from United States
Detailed Description
ONE OF THE FINEST BANDS FROM SF IN THE 70'S / FIRST TIME ON CD. ONE BONUS TRACK. FULLY REMASTERED - The Hoodoo Rhythm Devils rode the post-hippie wave emanating from San Francisco at the dawn of the '70s. Fusing blues boogie with country-rock rave-ups, full-throated rock & roll and a hint of soul, they didn't quite sound like any other band in the Bay Area in the early '70s. In a 1972 Rolling Stone rave of their second album, The Barbecue of Deville, Nick Tosches compared the group to Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen and Asleep at the Wheel, which points to how the band was closer to the American equivalent of British pub rock than an extension of Steve Miller's spacy blues.
