Canned Heat - The Ties That Bind (Deluxe Edition) (Remastered) (2019)

                                                                Canned Heat
The previously unreleased Atlantic Records session from 1974. Negotiated out of their UA contract, Canned Heat moved to Atlantic where notable blues enthusiasts the Ertegun Brothers were persuaded to give the band another chance. The tapes were released back to the band after the label lost interest due to the impending disco craze, and the infamous Lester Bang's eloquent 1973 Rolling Stone thrashing of "The New Age." LP. Fito de la Parra released the album in 1997. An excellent boogie-blues record in a time that didn't understand the music, The two unreleased Alan Wilson Tracks (Get Off My Back, Somethings Gotta Go) also appear on the newly released and available "The Boogie House Tapes Vol. 2", and are a studio and live track that were some of his last recordings. No word on a re-issue, but you can purchase the record from the band directly.
