Castle Farm was a British band from the early '70s with a powerful, guitar based hard-rock-blues sound with elements of glam and proto-metal. Here's their rare and sought after privately pressed 45 from 1972 (originally released on their own label, Farm Records), plus 1971-72 unissued studio recordings. Originally a four-piece band, they later brought in John Aldrich, with his super-clean lead guitar style, to supplement Gram 'Tex' Benike's killer slide work and create a dynamic dual-guitar sound, adding so much more color and depth to the band's music. With a solid rhythm section of 'Spyder' Curphey (and latterly his brother Roger) on bass and Steve Traveller on drums, and with Denny Newman's powerful and resonant vocals, the band progressed to the university and college circuit all over England, supporting major acts like Rory Gallagher, Deep Purple, Atomic Rooster, Savoy Brown, Climax Blues Band, Quintessence, and many others. Includes insert with liner notes by Rich After Sabbath and photos. Includes download card.
