Good Thunder Were A Young Heavy Progressive Five Piece From Los Angeles Comprising Of James Cahoon Lindsay Lead Vocals Percussion John Desautels Drums David Hanson Guitars Vocals Bill Rhodes Bass & Wayne Cook Keyboards . Their Short-Lived Existence Produced Only One Album 1972's 8 Track Eponymous Debut Released Through Continental Records A Sub Division Of Elektra. Their Album Is Now Largely Forgotten And Certainly Didn't Attempt To Break New Ground Within The Field Of Californian Bands Writing Hard Guitar Oriented Art-Rock With A Progressive/ Psychedelic Edge During The Early 70's. That Said The Musicianship Behind The Crunchy Guitars Driving Bass-Lines And Underpinning Hammond Organ Rhythms Demonstrate A More Than Competent Level Of Proficiency. Indeed The Construction Of Their More Progressive Tracks Such As 'Barking At The Ants' The Stand-Out Track Of The Album Leave One Wondering What Might Have Been With A Couple More Albums Under Their Belts. This Album Would Appeal To Those Who Enjoy Their Traditional Heavy Progressive Rock With An Overtly Melodic Pre-AOR Commercial Feel In The Vein Of Early Angel & White Witch Mixed With Deep Purple High Tide & Uriah Heep Classic Rock With The Odd Touch Of Allman Brothers Quirkiness. read less
