The Load - Praise The Load 1976 (USA, Symphonic Progressive Rock) Full Album

The group formed in Columbus, Ohio in March 1973. Despite the fact that the group immediately declared themselves as an original group and earned the respect of their colleagues (they performed with Rick Derringer, Brian Auger, Bob Seger, John McLaughlin, etc.), they could not release the album, because for the USA, their music was (as they now call it) “unformatted”. In the end, the album “Praise The Load” was nevertheless recorded (and at the expense of the musicians themselves) and released in November 1976. For the musicians, he brought fame among prog fans, good press and... not a drop of finance. As a result, in early 1977 the group moved to New York, where they participated in the Meat Loaf show, recorded with the Wilson brothers from the Beach Boys and tried to record a second album...

Uncle Lakis must not sleep much in order to bring us gems like this.A great classical rock record the industry had no idea what to do with.Imagine them recording with the Wilson’s.I would’ve wanted to hear that!👍👍👍👍👍

I enjoy classical and energetic keyboard play. The sound has a floating feeling, drifting between reality and fantasy.

This band is the reflection of prodigious bygone era, it's a phantom asteroid that returns to set its sights on sound art. A prodigious wave charged with paradoxes from which escape the magic, enthusiasm and irrationality, hypnotic factors challenging vulnerable souls in search of the absolute. His musical architecture is a short tunnel that leads to light 🦨💥
