[MixxMasterKid]

JIMMY FUCKIN PAGE

[Dve33able]

wish they made music like this still

[GuitArch54]

I remember when I first heard this album I was jazzed by this song and Baby Come Back. A bit of the impressario of Sutch gets in the way but the work of Page is really good.

Thanks

[Dve33able]

BONHAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM­MMMMMMMMMM! The GOD of drums and life

[DWGERRY26]

Great Album, Great Song.  Thanks for posting

[ezcondition]

awesome groove

[eatsandsleeps]

The rhythm is smoking hot. 

[cozener1]

Way ahead of its time. Lord Sutch will always live on!

[SEVFEST]

WOW what a lineup Jimmy Page, Noel Redding, John Bonham, & Jeff Beck were just some of his Heavy Friends.... didn't care for it much when it came out but the years crept up on me and I appreciate it more now at the age of 60.

[santyrush]

@LucaCava94  great era, fantastic for me, because I found a cassette record and since them, I`m a fan of this music.

[LucaCava94]

[newall7]

he was a star

[rillloudmother]

There used to be a skaterock band in the US back in the 80s called Screaming Lord Salba and his Heavy Friends [the skater steve alba hence salba]. I never knew where he got it from, but now I know why, this stuff stinks! hehe

[PAULLONDEN]

@rillloudmother Not as bad as your mouth,mother...

[rillloudmother]

@PAULLONDEN this is the worst these musicians ever sounded on any recording, and sutch is even worse

[PAULLONDEN]

@rillloudmother You just don't 'get it',mother....it's meant to sound 'freaky'. sorry...no Lynyrd Skynyrd for you here.

[rillloudmother]

@PAULLONDEN dude, i don't dig on skynyrd at all...

[psteed]

"Sutch's album Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends was named in a 1998 BBC poll as the worst album of all time, a status it also held in Colin Larkin's book The Top 1000 Albums of All Time, despite the fact that Jimmy Page, John Bonham, Jeff Beck, Noel Redding and Nicky Hopkins performed on it and helped write it." -- wikipedia

By "worst album", I assume they meant to say "best album"!

[ringwormsnowy]

looks like my dad new what he was listening to after all!

[milkowaif]

i like that cake stand.

[jimfitzart]

the renaissance  love it

[jarmyvicious]

Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck?

[bayley90]

i want to get this album but i cant find it anywhere, its over £11 for a cd online and its not downloadable from itunes... thank god for youtube... only heard this because i was reading about john bonham on wiki and it said he was on this album so checked it on here and was enlightened!

[baddman17]

jhon bonham played drums

"...Pero Bonzo no solo grabó con Led Zeppelin. Bonham también encontró tiempo para hacer algo de trabajo de sesión para otros artistas. En 1970, Bonham tocó para Lord Sutch en su álbum Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends. También grabó para su amigo Roy Wood, en el álbum Wizzard (1979). Luego vuelve a los escenarios, pero esta vez junto a la banda de Paul McCartney: Paul McCartney's Wings on their Back to the Egg Rockestra Project..."

[drgangrene]

kick ass



[FrodeSyn]

Very good LP as well. Highly recommended!

[ny1971challenger]

Pagey is a god. Bonzo is the best drummer ever. Lord Sutch rules Britannia!!!

[amstell13]

[Juanartista]

Yup Bonham played en esta rola.Peace

[custardpie40]

i picked up a copy of smoke and fire, after a long search i decided ebay may help.. sure enough.. can always tell Bonham's style.. and page.

[CHE0013]

pregunta bonham toco en esta rola

[foflco]

Read Graham Sharpe's book on Lord Sutch's life. Everything becomes clear.

[whofan5555]

Great track currently being used as backing on Barclays bank see saw ad.. must have some real old rockers at that ad agency

[toiroforcado]

All the best music is on commercials now! They should show credits at the end for the band. Kids should know where the best music comes from. Damned hipsters selling out to the MAN!

[KnightoftheValor]

You know, I completely agree! It should become OMRLP Manifesto!

[mapscannotcontainme]

The Doors haven't let their music be used in ads and you really have to respect them for it. I don't know where I saw the quote or which one of their surviving members said it - I think it was Krieger* who said, " I've gotten letters and spoke to people who first got drunk to our music, who first got laid to our music, who concieved their kids to our music, and even heard some kids in Vietname died to our music. That's not for sale."

Led Zeppelin's been pretty good about it, as well.

[TheSexMess]

In the movie "The Doors" they do, so if it's bullshit I don't understand why they'd put it in it, no?

[fiendwithoutaface66]

yet they'll release loads of poor quality bootleg sets like Boot Yer Butt. You can't pretend like these guys aren't hungry for money.

[GaragePunkSkanker]

@toiroforcado Yup. I just heard The Seeds "I Can't Seem To Make You MIne" on a Lynx advert. No credit, no comment.

Films that use original music credit the performers. Why the difference with advertisements?

At least it's getting the word out there.

[haveyouseenmypuppy]

I heard this rummor before and dont buy it, recording music in a studio is a big process. The qualty is to good and produced, if this was the case all the songs would sound like they were done by a jam band. They also played live shows together with kieth moon on drums, i believe that the second album wich is live was a suprise to the other musicians.

[poohen223]

union jack car & thumping beat...anytime. this album is one of my all time favorite nuggets.

[johnicester]

JIMMY PAGE produced the damned thing how could it be UNKNOWN!!! ?

GEEZ

[Zyworski]

On the Heavy Friends album during the song Gutty Guitar he mentions Jeff Beck as the second guitarist.

[steveesp88]

this song is ILL

[elrond511]

Oh Boy this is Jennings farm blues in its infancy !! : )

[glamrockerqueen1]

I was a Savage for one night, Floral Hall Morecambe 94'.Long live rock n roll

[Olympiakos71]

Is this Bonham Page and Jones backing Sutch, some of the guitar parts sound like stuff Page would later jam on with Zeppelin....and the opening riff sounds like the begining of Bron-Yr-Stomp! Whatever its awesome!!

[mrmott44]

Lord Sutch-vocals

Jimmy Page-guitar

Daniel Edwards-bass

John Bonham-drums

There were no tracks on the "heavy friends' albumn with JPJ, but some great tracks with page, bonham and noel redding

[amstell13]

@mrmott44 , you are correct (Page, Bonham, Edwards & Lord Sutch).

[joey1127]

LORD SUTCH AND HEAVY FRIENDS...1970 What a great album. While it did so poorly in sales back in 1970, hearing it now (30 some years later) it actually sounds really good. Must have been ahead of it's time for sure!

[ttoale]

Sales did poorly because all these artist were under the impression these recordings were for demo purposes only, not to be released. When announced it would be released, all these artists disowned it and the album consequently did poorly, along with Screaming Lord Sutch's career subsequent to the release of this album. Sucks it happened how it did but at least we have the music! lol

[whofan5555]

If thats true its sad that it was released twice as a Jimmy Page album, Smoke and Fire and Jimmy Page and Friends - Wailing Sounds. I guess he made more money out of than Sutch

[PAULLONDEN]

@joey1127

So True,have to admit it went past me at the time ,I knew almost nothing about him,yet I did follow the "pop & rock scene",it was probably too offhand for mainstream promotion. 1970 , things became too serious for this kinda stuff and wasn't deemed cool enough.Got to know these original sounds through the amazing internet.Now with the recognition of 'Freakbeat" ,this gets long overdue attention,Same with all things Joe Meek. Genius.

[apollostaar]

one of the most underrated rockstars of his time. funny how A.Cooper seemed to have 'borrowed' a few things from Sutch, while Manson blatently just COPIED and RIPPED OFF everything from Cooper! If the kids only knew. Too bad there is NO hope anymore.

[hydraIX]

Jeff Beck , Ritchie Blackmore , and Keith Moon also jammed on Lord Sutch's albums back then.

[tuberider1976]

what a track...

thanks, t

[zeprulesagain]

One of my favorite albums!

[rterrell10]

I tried to turn some high school friends on to Lord Sutch. This would have been around 1970 or so. They hated him. Oh well. I just loved this song especially. After all these years, I remembered it and decided to look for it. Thanks for uploading it to YouTube.

[esb369]

That's the Bo Diddley beat.

Love that guy.

[gR8FuLpOnTiAc]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joellen527]

Would you please post "Baby Come Back" from the same album? (my alltime favorite)

Chris Baltimore

[PAULLONDEN]

Mickey Mouse LSD experience...

But søøøøø brilliantly funnééééy.

[rhyader9]

how about "brightest light"?

[hydraIX]

Kinda a Bo Diddley "beat" song

[hydraIX]

the guitar parts in this song were done by Jimmy Page during the early Zeppelin years and JP Jones and Bonzo both accompanied Page on it.

[greycoffepot]

fantastico unico !!!!! troppo avanti

[wildcats2012]

Is there any chance of you posting "Would you believe" off of the same album?

[ShowBizComic]

Haven't heard THISIgnore the critics, this cut is fuckin' fabulous! Lord Sutch's vocals ain't the best but they fit here just fine, and the guitars saw thru yer skull with beautiful lysergic sweeps of ecstatic thrills, one after the other! This one is just too much fun! Sugar cube anyone?---Jupiter Superfreak in Vegas

[PAULLONDEN]

Soo TRUE....Brilliantino,

His Meek recordings are just as far out.

[xwsftassell]

Never heard that before, that's great.
