Coming from the same Minneapolis 1960's scene which spawned bands like The Litter, Thundertree evolved from garage band The Good Idea. In 1970 they released their sole album for the Roulette label: a perfect example of the transition from psychedelia to hard-rock and early progressive sounds. Killer fuzzed-out guitar, organ, and powerful vocals. Including hard-psychedelic classics like "In The Morning" and "At The Top Of The Stairs" along with the monstrous 17-minute long "1225" suite.
For this, the first-ever legitimate CD reissue of Thundertree, Riverman Music (Korea BTR0116) has included two previously-unreleased bonus tracks: "Pepper Palace" (a great psychedelic number) plus a storming cover of "16 Tons," which was the signature song in Thundertree's live shows. Both tracks were recorded at UA Studios, Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1970. Includes an insert with detailed liner notes by Billy Hallquist (Thundertree, Persephone, Travelin') with 24-Bit Remastered sound.
