Geordie (1974) Got to Know - LOST 70s GEMS

From their 1974 album Don't Be Fooled By The Name, Georgie were the type of tough Glam Rockers with clean studio production that would influence the future Hair rockers of the 80s, the album is supercharged and full of loud vocals, heavy stomps and in this track sweet, high pitched and gooey sounding synthesizer parts poke through in extremely sonic fills. The electric guitars on display have a thunderous quality, they are cleanly recorded and sound huge. Then Brian Jonhston's exemplary vocals are brash enough to match the music, he handles ballad vocals on Little boy just as well with his deep northern accent giving a tougher vibe to the music as the electric power chords crash, the funky soul drumming rattles away etc.
