A 1971 Blackwood Bros. LP which combines then-recent tracks with older tracks processed to sound distorted in the high range. The music is great, but the sound... oh, well. "Dynaflex," says the label, referring to the too-thin vinyl, though I could swear it's in Dyangroove, too. That would explain the inflated bass and missing highs. (What's that? You changed your mind about downloading? Why?)
For all that, I was able to rescue the sound with a slight upper-midrange boost and some cutting of the bass. And the music, as I said, is great. We're hearing two sides of a four-side set, with sides 1 and 4 to appear next week. This is pure Blackwood Brothers brilliance, so don't let the so-so sound stop you. And I've always wanted to type that. This, too. And them.
To the music: The Blackwood Brothers Q.--Put Your Hand in the Hand, Part 1

Thanks for sharing. I've had this LP for years since it came out, but I haven't listened to it for years.

I hope that God doesn't like to give "High 5s" to anyone. o_O
Thanks for the recording!
