Wild Turkey - Turkey (1972)

The second and final album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet on this album with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, piano and vocals. 

This band was a spinoff from Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson decided to take Jethro Tull towards progressive rock and that made the bassist Glenn Cornick to jump ship and start his own band.

Hence this band who released a handful of albums. I only got this album though. This is their most known album too and a good intro to this band.

The music is what we can call classic hard rock with a lot of southern rock and blues influences.

The vocals is good and ditto for the guitars. The sound is pretty good.

There is indeed a lot of stuff here who later inspired the likes of Budgie and Man.  

This is a decent album and one to check out if classic rock and hard rock is your thing.
