A real stunner from this rural rock outfit from Delaware whoseonly album was this 1977 private pressing on the AlligatorShoes label (Alligator Shoes 40004).The album features seven original compositions combiningacoustic, electric and pedal steel guitars augmented by sometasty keyboards. There's loads of blistering, well-structuredguitar jams, and a few Band-style rural funk vocals, with a ofhippy psych interludes thrown in for good measure. The soundis unique, cool and beautifully played. The album rocks fromstart to finish, and is another one of those obscure raritiesthat should have enjoyed significant commercial success andthose fortunate enough to have heard Snakegrinder areunanimous in their praise.Absolutely nothing is known about the musicians whocomprised Snakegrinder, which is extremely unfortunate astheir sublime talents combine here to produce one of thefinest rock albums it has been our pleasure to reissueTrack Listing1.
