Mountain Angel Band – Angel Food
Admirable and overlooked xian rural/hard rock lp on the Sonrise label from 1978, favorably reviewed in Ken Scott’s ‘Archivist’. The standout track here is “Suffering Servant”, a stellar piece of moody, heavy rock with psych tendencies and strong, searing guitar tone. “No Sir” carries along in a similar vein, its melodic phrasing evocative of some lost Arthur Lee number. Pretty cool record overall and deserving of more attention.

I graduated with David Tong who was a member of this band. This is still one of favorite LP’s in my collection. It is a great album!
No Sir is a JAM. Definitely love this LP!
