THREADJACK WARNING



DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD, that's awesome!!!

I bought an absolutely mint copy of their album "Passage" at a little basement used record store on Sherbrooke just east of McGill in Montreal many years ago. Haven't listened to that in years. Going to have to look for that this weekend!!!

Threadjack over. We will now return you to your regular progrramming!!!

Nice score! haven't seen anything of theirs in a while. That's why I pulled it out.

I was (and still am) a big fan of Bloodrock. Saw them 3 times in concert in Houston 68 -70. I have every one of their albums (which I believe is 5), though the first is a little ragged now days.

Sandalwood is good if properly mixed with other scents, as a stand alone, I agree meh.
