wackering heights

Produced by Gary Usher of Byrds fame, the Wackers’ 1971 debut was out of step with the heavy (Led Zep) and heavily produced (Pink Floyd) fare in fashion at the time, full of jangly guitars, three-part harmonies and rock ‘n’ roll attitude. The predictable result: mediocre sales but great critical acclaim! And, boy, does this record sound good now; includes Travelin’ Time; Body Go Round; Country Queen; Strangers; Don’t Put down the Singer; I Don’t Want My Love Refused; White House; I Like; On the Way Up; Such a Good Thing; No Place for the Children', and a cover of Elvis’ 'Don’t Be Cruel'.
