It's called "The Adventures of Robert Savage" and it's an album from 1971.

 

I can't find any great information on it (no wikipedia article even) but I gathered that it was a trio and this was Savage's only LP (so no volume 2 :().

 

However, he more than shows proficiency on the guitar.

The album sounds like a cross of the Yardbirds and Syd-led Floyd and the Doors, and his playing is Jimi-inspired. That means its quite good.

 

I found the album by accident on a torrent site. "Nine Albums of Psychedelic Rock-Heavy 1968-72" was a torrent that came up when I searched for something like Trower and I clicked on that, it had detailed descriptions of the albums and Savage's looked good so I dl'ed that one.

 

I suggest you do the same, you can find it on Torrent Spy or ISO Hunt.

Just search for Nine Albums of Psychedelic Rock-Heavy 1968-72 .

Going to download now. Doors meets Jimi meets early Floyd meets yardbirds sounds interesting.


Didn't see it on torrentspy though.

 

 

try iso hunt. and if that doesn't work, just do a few of the words. too bad i can't direct link for some reason.

 

in regards to the question, no I'm not a subscriber to Psychadelic Weekly but i think i should get more of it.. currently into funk and rock and roll like Humble Pie

its cool.

There's a somewhat more current band that I immediately thought of listening to this. They're instrumental, but you should check them out.

 

Mystic Krewe of Clearlight

 

OH!

 

and Mahavishnu Orchestra (john mclaughlin jazz/fusion/psych rock)

Never heard of him. I don't use torrents, but maybe it'll show up on usenet one of these days.

 

Oh, and check out Inner Mounting Flame by the Mahavishnu Orchestra. It's my favorite by them, but I certianly haven't listened to all they have to offer.
