I've discovered a ton of them recently, some of the best:
Affinity - s/t Clear Blue Sky - s/t Fields - s/t Forest - Full Circle Grannie - s/t Hands - s/t Maxophone - s/t Touch - Street Suite (might have been 1969?) Weed - s/t Zoo - s/t

Hands released other albums besides their self-titled debut, two of which were released in the 2000's. Strangelet (featuring Herd of Instinct/Spoke of Shadows Warr guitarist, Mark Cook) dates back from 2008, and it is one hell of a great album. |

Good one ....although they (part of Komintern) did release an album prior to Bal du rat mort under the moniker of Red Noise: Mixes the strangeness of Komintern, although not quite as developed at the time, with the 60s and some real "stick it to the man" vibes.

I love this site, thanks! I wasn't familiar with many of those titles!
My own favorite was "Shakti" with John McLaughlin. He only had one studio release with this group.

Well the album does start off with a man going to the toilet.

Head East's Flat as a Pancake, a good ol' rock album from 1974. And, of course, the greatest one-hit wonders of all-time: Layla and other Assorted Love Songs. By some guys named Eric Clapton and Duane Allman.

^ I hear that that Allman kid did some great work on this one R&B record.
Don't know who that "Clapton" guy was. Wasn't he in Saviour Machine? |

Don't know much about the Clapton fella, but I've heard he got kicked out of several decent bands, like The Yardbirds, Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith, Delaney and Bonnie and Friends, and Derek and the Dominos. Must be a troublemaker. |

Kapt. Kopter and the Twirly Birds, featuring Randy California and Noel Redding both had who worked with Hendrix.
Randy did other stuff, but this was the only thing from the 70s. Too many wonderful RPI one hit wonders from the 70's to name. Some have already been mentioned.

off the top of my head:
Jean Yves Labat- M. Frog. 18 Karat Gold- Amon Duul 2's Roxy music take-off. Cherubim- Cherub Safety Match. Great German band. Jack Nitzche- St. Giles Cripplegate. Plus-The Seven Deadly Sins. George Grunblatt- K-Priss. Il Volo- the Italian band, not the vocal group Niagara- another Amon Duul 2/Embryo offshoot. (the last two may be disqualified as I believe they did 2 lps) |
