Groundhogs - Crosscut Saw (1976)

The eight album from this band from England.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars and vocals.

The band had arrived at their eight album.

They had also stripped down their sound from keyboards, synths and mellotron to a more basic drums, bass, lots of guitars and vocals sound.

Tony's guitars and vocals is again the dominating factor.

Although the sound has been stripped down, the music is still quirky and pretty progressive. There is also a lot of blues in their music.

The music is pretty heavy. But it is very clever and quirky.

I was expecting a bombastic hard rock album based on this cover art-work and I am therefore surprised by the music. Positive surprised.

The songs are all clever and good.

Groundhogs has got even more respect from me after this album. That says a lot....
