Dirty Tricks - Black Diamond [1976 Hard Rock UK]

Uploaded by Rich at http://aftersabbath.blogspot.com the blog for 60s-70s heavy obscurities.

Taken from the 2nd of the three Dirty Tricks albums, "Night Man" (1976)

Dirty Tricks was a British blues-based hard rock band, which recorded three albums in the second half of the 70s: "Dirty Tricks" (1975), "Night Man" (1976) and "Hit & Run" (1977).

Dirty Tricks made its US debut in San Antonio at a Southside bar known as Randy's Rodeo late in 1974, to rave reviews. It was there that they debuted songs from the upcoming album and finished the crowd off with an explosive version of the Kinks' "You Really Got Me", a year before Van Halen released their first album with that same song.

The debut self-titled album was produced by Black Sabbath / Budgie / Judas Priest legend Rodger Bain.
