This guys from Scotland made the most powerful heavy rock from the underground that no one have ever heard. Impressed after attending to early Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath live shows, they decided to play their own heavy rock songs, not without first having played the repertoire of these bands, being the first band to cover Black Sabbath and playing live their whole first album back in 1970, before it was even published! After the release of their album in 2009, nowadays they have the acknowledgement that they did not had back in the 70s, and it is deserved.
Some of their recordings were not included on the LP and this is the time for releasing them. This single contains two dirty and heavy songs titled Take Me To Your Leader and Lady Whisky from 1970 and 1971 respectively, that deserved to be released and Iron Claw fans will appreciate.
The issue includes a postcard/picture of the band.

]]> Iron Claw (2LP) https://wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com/product/iron-claw-2lp/ Wed, 22 Jan 2014 23:00:00 +0000 https://wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com/product/iron-claw-2lp/ Official gatefold double album of early 1970s Scottish underground heavy rock from Iron Claw, a band who were stomping around the UK with the likes of Black Sabbath, Hackensack, Pink Fairies, Juicy Lucy and others, but who never released a proper album. Iron Claw started their career in 1970 as (more or less) the world's first Black Sabbath tribute band -- they incorporated the entire first Black Sabbath LP and single into their live set! And as it happens, it was Iron Claw bassist Alex Wilson who unearthed the oldest known concert recording of Black Sabbath, a 1969 gig recorded by Wilson in Dumfries, Scotland. As time progressed, Iron Claw's live sets started to include many heavy, grinding, proto-doom, heavy rock originals.
This collection of sixteen of original studio tracks documents Iron Claw's existence from 1970 through 1974. It includes extensive liner notes, lyrics and photos inside the gatefold and on a 12" insert.
