Jeeez, that triggers some flashbacks. Owned or borrowed most of the Bloodrock and Nitzinger stuff. If memory serves, Lee Pickens pulled off the more acrobatic leads in Bloodrock. Thought Ollie Hallsall (Patto), early B.O.C. Larry Coryell and the Mahavishnu Orchestra made em' seem pretty wimpy, maybe i shouldn't have ditched those records. Kept the Mar y Sol record tho' (Texas Blues/Jelly Roll had some scorcher parts on it) an' i liked his description of a girlfriends mental acuity, it was something like... if you put her brain on the edge of a razor blade it would look like a bb rollin' down a four lane highway.
Ray, The album I have does not include "Yellow Dog". The two songs that stand out on this lp are "L.A. Texas Boy" and "Louisana Cock Fight". The album cover is blace with "Nitzinger" written across the front in large letters. And my friends name was Stanley, so there goes the theory that one man was responsible for the spread of Nitzingerism.
I´m in Portugal and I´ve been looking for Nitzinger´s "yellow dog" for years.I downloaded an incomplete file of it, and a new live version.
Do you know the name of the album with the original version?
All the best!
