Attila-ST (1970) Billy Joel's Vanilla Fudge Sludge Thang!


Being from Long Island, our hero Billy Joel could not help from being downwind of the kings of overkill sludge rock Vanilla Fudge. Billy was so taken by the Fudge that he ditched his sub-Rascals white soul group The Hassles and concocted the two headed beast called Attila.

Rumor has it, that they had people running to the exits when they played the few gigs they managed to pull off. 

What does it sound like? Have a listen for yourself as I've stuck the whole thing right here. I would say Attila have parts of Renaissance/Near The Beginning Vanilla Fudge, a bit of Crow, Sweathog and just a touch of Toe Fat. 

Are you brave enough to listen?
