Good to hear! It's funny though.. something about those albums released under the name of a bandmember always invokes scepticism, even in me. You always expect them to be some self-indulgent guitarwankery or whatnot ...not so this time.doomedplanet wrote:FRANKIE WOODHOUSE's "Something In The Air" is not forgotten here, it is a classic. Lady 12" is too for that matter.
Found a blogpost w/ the LADY ep for download: http://metal666anarchy.blogspot.com/200 ... -1982.html

I hear a big Rainbow influence in Grand Magus, and in JBs sometime other band Spiritual Beggars too.
Both modern(ish) bands, but very relevant to this thread nonetheless.
Also, i hear JR Blackmore's stuff is very much in the Rainbow mould, but i've yet to hear anything by him personally.

I cannot, I shall not, I will not obey.

Good people from my neighbourhood: Moahni Moahna - The Quest for the Unholy Sword (1992)
(The bassist is the guy who helped us record the ol' Epic Irae tapes back in 1989-92.
...and of course guitarrist Henrik Flyman used to play with us now and then, and buy us beer before we were of age.
)
More obvious influences here I guess: Moahni Moahna - Queen Shamar (1994)

How can it be underrated if you can't even find it anywhere? Either on vinyl or the internet.DaN wrote:One of the most underrated/shamefully forgotten albums in this great style is the Dutch FRANKIE WOODHOUSE's "Something In The Air" album (actually a double-12") from 1984. 3 of the songs from this gem was also recorded earlier under the LADY-monicker on a 12" EP.
I've heard about this band more than once over the years but I've never seen it anywhere.
