Sorry that´s my weak attempt at singing the guitar riff to the song ´Black Sabbath´, hehe).
But to be fair, Sabbath´s debut *is* considered a groundbreaking album with a sound WAY ahead of its time, and back then music fans and record producers went where the originality was.
Now, many years later, how about that there band Indian Summer? These guys are really good, and honestly, they should have been bigger than they were if ´Glimpse´ is any indication. This is a song that has jazzy and fast guitar playing similar to the middle section of Sugarloaf´s ´Green Eyed Lady´, has a lead singer who sounds a bit like Steve Winwood, and keyboards that swirl and delight around every turn. The guitar playing really picks up near the middle and is quite exciting if you ask me.
This is just a perfect example of solid rock music and you must discover it.. And summed up by saying a great surprise. Currently Indian Summer has an overall rating of 8 over 10.
