Blue Cheer



BLUE CHEER

A little piece of nostalgia here with the American psychedelic blues-rock band Blue Cheer. They initially performed and recorded in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This cult band has been credited as being pioneers of heavy metal and stoner rock, their cover of "Summertime Blues" is cited as the first in the genre.

Jim Morrison of The Doors called the group, "The single most powerful band I've ever seen." They are also considered a heavy influence to Black Sabbath.
