Hopefully, the band used the Cow Bell, in one of their many, many songs?
Makes you wonder what direction the band would have taken if Terry Kath had not died so early ! Their early stuff was fantastic !
The band has done very well over these years.
They were great for three albums.
Even then I thought the name was stupid. I hate band's names that are too long. So they ended up shortening it and it was still kind of dumb being named after a city.
But they were my obsession for the years of those first three records.
The first case of RnR disillusionment came about from their devolution into radio music. Many more cases followed but that was the first. It became difficult to listen to the records I previously loved and I certainly did not want anyone to know I was ever a "fan".
The records sat on the shelf for forty years. I played some of them about a year ago and was surprised just how damn good they were.
Thankfully, one of Rock's very best debut albums!
...one of my favorites from that album that gets little airplay.
I don't remember it, but enjoyed listening to it here. I gave up on the band when they slowly switched to elevator music.
Think this is the song with Katz playing through a Fender Dual Showman, full blast into a 4 X 12-inch cab loaded with JBL D120F speakers ---- in the studio.
Gibson SG, IIRC. Pure 6L6GC overdrive!

Neat. I also saw them around that time. They played a 10K seat auditorium and only 3k of us showed up. The guy who announced the band said he had heard them when they were setting up and a lot of people are going to miss a great show. He was right. They were excellent. Terry Kath looked like he was really into it in this video. Another talent gone too soon.
