Moby Grape's 1967 magnum opus is the perfect debut album. Weaving stunning and impassioned vocal harmonies against a dense frontline of three guitars and a seriously rocking rhythm section the album exudes energy and sun-soaked optimism. Eschewing the then-fashionable penchant for extended jamming, the album kicks out a series of killer two and a half minute gems that effortlessly fuse rock, folk and country influences with hook-laden pop. All five members wrote and sang so amongst the myriad delights you can sample Bob Mosley's powerful 'white-soul' voice and Skip Spence's visionary songwriting. Check out the storming 'Hey Grandma' and 'Omaha', or the riff-heaven of 'Lazy me' (currently in Robert Plant's Priory of Brion's live set) and the melancholic and beautiful 'Sitting by the window' and '8.05' - gorgeous stuff. Sadly, the Grape never sustained the momentum so evident on this West Coast classic but they're still playing in one form or another in the States and the recent 'Vintage' collection (containing practically eveything they recorded in their first incarnation - including this sparkling debut) has helped keep the flame burning. If you love The Grateful Dead, Creedence Clearwater Revival and CSN@Y you'll love this!
