A zenekar Lydia Pense and Cold Blood néven is fellépett és felvételeket készített, énekesnőjük, Lydia Pense népszerűsége miatt...

Lydia Pense amerikai rock-soul-jazz énekesnő, aki 1969 óta tagja a Cold Blood zenekarnak. A kritikusok olyan erőteljes énekesekhez hasonlították stílusát, mint Janis Joplin és Aretha Franklin.

LINK

A 60-as évek vége óta Frankfurtban élő művész Kurt Hauenstein, két csinos színes bőrű énekesnővel és több közismert session-zenésszel együtt megalakított együttesével, a Supermax-szel a 70-es évek második felében tört be elemi erővel a zene világába. Olyan felejthetetlen slágerekkel örvendeztette meg a szofisztikáltabb diszkózene híveit, mint a „Supermax”, a „Watch Out South Africa”, az „African Blood”, és mindenekelőtt leghíresebb és legsikeresebb felvétele, a „Lovemachine”. Zenei világában korának diszkóritmusait elegyítette a funky, a soul, a reggae, az afró-rock, sőt a blues elemeivel...

Kurt Hauenstein alig 62 éves korában hunyt el 2011-ben.

The Pretty Things - The Rhythm & Blues Years (2CD/2001) Snapper Music

 

MP3/320Kbs/227MB

R&B, Rock

LINK

Before the Pretty Things began dabbling with psychedelia in the late '60s, they were primarily a R&B-influenced rock band. The double-disc, 34-track The Rhythm & Blues Years collection compiles the work from that early era in the band's history. Featured songs include the group's biggest hit from the time, "Don't Bring Me Down," along with less-remembered songs like "Honey, I Need," "Judgement Day," "The Moon Is Rising," "I'm Gonna Find Me Substitute," "13 Chester Street," "Oh Baby Doll," "Get a Buzz," and many more. Overall, this is a great one-stop collection for anyone interested in the group's more-anchored and less-heady work. (J.B. AllMusic)
