‘Situation Normal – All Fouled Up!’ That was the old USAF wartime expression that became more politely known as SNAFU. It might also have been applied to the situations bands experienced on the road - and the phrase certainly appealed to singer Bobby Harrison, when he fronted this excellent group. Here is the debut 1973 album from a top class outfit that quickly established a reputation for solid, heavy rock; a mainstay of the college and club circuit. Harrison was formerly lead singer of Freedom and he teamed up with guitarist Micky Moody to form Snafu with Pete Solley on keyboards, Colin Gibson (bass) and Terry Popple (drums) in 1973. This eight track CD includes such original band numbers as ‘Said He The Judge’ and ‘Funky Friend’, together with a cover of Gamble & Huff’s ‘Drowning In the Sea Of Love’.

Rezensionen

,,Gemeinsam spielten sie amerikanisch geprägten, R&B-beeinflussten und groovenden Blues-Rock - man kann Elemente der Allman Brothers oder von Little Feat heraushören. Neben der Musik überzeugt auch das Booklet mit einer in die Tiefe gehenden Bandhistorie von Chris Welch sowie Moodys Erläuterungen zu jedem Song." (Good Times, 02-03 / 2011)
