BLUE CHEER - Summer Time Blues (1968)



Bruce recommends "Summertime Blues", featuring Auburn resident Leigh Stephens. According to Rolling Stone:
This power trio's cover of Eddie Cochran's classic was their only hit, sometimes called the first heavy-metal record. It's a showcase for the massive roar of Leigh Stephens' guitar, so fuzzed-up it scrapes like steel wool, dragging the rockabilly riff through the dust.
