Hopney - Cosmic Rockout (1977 us, amazing acid bluesy psych guitar rock, 2001 remaster)


Hopney's (Patrick Hearns) "Cosmic Rockout" is a rare 1977 US guitar psych album from Florida that was produced by Mike Pinera of Blues Image and Iron Butterly fame. Featuring some cool fuzz guitar work with melodic vocals this is reminiscent of Jeff Liberman with plenty of free flowing Hendrixy guitar work and a cool '70's funky vibe.
