Blackhorse - Blackhorse (1979 us solid tough texas boogie rock pre stoner, 2013 remaster)



Blackhorse formed in A and released only this album in 1979. Heavy Southern Rock 'n' roll - very similar to early Blackfoot, early Molly Hatchet. Heavy guitar riffs all over! A fantastic Southern Rock album. Self-produced and pressed this album to use as a promotional item to secure live gigs and sell at shows, the sound is incredible for a self-produced album.  Sadly, the band was never picked up by a major label and this album remains their sole output. The album is utterly unbelievable in its rich and devilish guitar riffs and very unique as it fuses hard rock and southern flair. It is mentioned in celebrity rock critic Martin Popoff´s list of the ‚"100 Heaviest Albums of the Seventies‚".
