Mahogany Rush-Strange Universe

Original

I first heard of this band on the TV show The Midnight Special one night at a friends house in 1976. Under the influence of something as usual, they were playing the title track from this record and I was realy impressed by it. Sounding a bit like Hendrix’s “Third Stone From The Sun” withy a strange sounding part in the middle. Following that I went out and bought the record. His singing sounds a lot like Jimi’s and his guitar playing is somewhat similar although Jimi Hendrix wrote better songs. “Strange Universe” is the best song on the record but some of the others have some decent guitar solos like “Land Of A Thousand Nights” and “Dear Music”. “Moonlight Lady” sounds so much like a Hendrix song I sometimes think it is. An interesting cover. The record still sounds pretty good though the cover is in fair condition.
