Spooky Tooth - The Last Puff (1970)

The fourth album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a sextet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, piano, organ and vocals.

This album was the last Spooky Tooth album with Mike Harrison on vocals. He went on a solo career after that album and this album was announcing that. A bit of strange way of doing it but they still did it. 

The half an hour long album starts with the Beatles cover I Am The Walrus. A heavy, soulful version of that song and decent enough.

The rest of the songs, six songs, are pretty hard rocking with some blues and soul influences. Led Zeppelin is a good reference and so is Man. 

The music is rather meandering and not particular interesting. Mike Harrison's vocals is good and that is the best thing about this album. The organ sound is also good.

This is barely a decent album and not their best album.
