"I saw this band at City University in London in 1972. They started very quietly so everyone sat on the floor in good cool, hippy fashion but after about ten bars of lulling everone into a false sense of security and calm they launched into some of the heaviest, loudest and finest rock music I've ever heard. The audience was completely stunned. " |
