		<title>Morgen &#8220;Morgen&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Morgen was a hard rock/psych band that hailed from Long Island, NY.  They were fronted by guitarist/vocalist/wild man Steve Morgen but also included drummer Bob Maiman and guitarists Barry Stock and Rennie Genossa.  In 1969, record label Probe (ABC) released the group&#8217;s sole offering.
The album&#8217;s best known track is the classic &#8220;Welcome To The Void.&#8221;  40+ years later this cut&#8217;s over [...]]]></description>

		<title>Manfred Mann&#8217;s Earth Band &#8220;Manfred Mann&#8217;s Earth Band&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Small Faces, the Pretty Things, the Zombies and the Move have seen numerous write-ups, send offs, and press in all the big-time (and small-time) classic rock publications.  But of all the major British Invasion acts, none has been as ill-served and neglected in rock critic circles and the collector circuit as Manfred Mann.  Mann and his group are usually thought of as a singles act, which [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Byrds &#8220;Byrds&#8221; (&#8216;73 Reunion)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The announcement of the reunion album featuring all five original Byrds raised expectations to the point where whatever emerged was almost bound to be an anticlimax. (Imagine the effect of the Beatles reforming around the same time, if you will.) Despite a general thumbs-down from the critics, fan loyalty and eager anticipation made the new [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kaleidoscope (UK) &#8220;Faintly Blowing&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Kaleidoscope was one of England&#8217;s purest and most beloved psychedelic bands.  Prior to their ventures into psychedelia, Kaleidoscope had been known as The Sidekicks and then, The Key.  These groups played a rather ordinary brand of British pop and R&#38;B.  Kaleidoscope debuted in 1967 with their fabulous Tangerine Dream LP.  This disc featured some of the finest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Giveaway: &#8220;Texas Tornado&#8221; Doug Sahm Bio</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The fine folks at the University of Texas Press have cleared us a couple copies of this new bio for two (2) lucky Rising Storm readers. This is the first biography of the legendary Doug Sahm, a great read which I previously reviewed here. (Back to albums soon I swear it.)
To enter for a chance [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creedence Clearwater Revival &#8220;Bayou Country&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
For a long time I wondered why four guys from the musical wellhead that was late ‘60s San Fran set out to sound like a swamp’n’roll band from the backwoods of Louisiana, whilst accepting as perfectly natural that five young long-haired white boys from London, England should have bust their guts to emulate a black [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Human Beinz &#8220;Evolutions&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This Youngstown, Ohio band hit pay dirt in 1967 with their version of the Isley Brothers&#8217; classic &#8220;Nobody But Me.&#8221;  The group featured Mel Pachuta (bass guitar), Ting Markulin (rhythm guitar), Mike Tatman (drummer) and Richard Belley (lead guitar).  Prior to Evolutions the group had released a split LP with the Mammals and a legit 1967 debut followup titled Nobody But [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Rolling Stones &#8220;Aftermath (UK)&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Rolling Stones may still elicit the soubriquet “the greatest rock’n’roll band in the world”, but in my opinion they’ve produced in a 42-year recording history (to A Bigger Bang, 2005) just two albums really worthy of the full five stars. Both came in the 1960s when they were still comparatively young and hungry, and [...]]]></description>
