Nitzinger Is Still Happenin' - A truly legendary artist

02/03/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This listing is a European bootleg. But obviously a great piece of classic rock. 1972 actually, not (c)1996 as the label states.
My opinion is, that they should pay the artist royalties.
This is Texas Homegrown Tone , great but you sure don't have to import it.
Nitzinger 1972 Capitol label
One Foot In History 1973 Capitol label.
Another Unreleased on Capitol. 1974
Thunder Thunder on Capitol 1974 ( Want To Buy )

Some new albums being released by Jim Rutledge of Bloodrock soon, featuring John Nitzingers guitar work. And one album is of Texas greats like Jim Rutledge and Rocky Athas doing fresh songs by John Nitzinger. John is one of the greatest songwriters of our time.
The album listed here is great it features Curly Benton (RIP)on Bass, and if not the first one of the first performing girl rock-n-roll drummers on a major label, Linda Waring ...
Some tracks have background by a then studio vocalist Janie Fricke.
It's a great album. As are all of Nitzingers' Classic and Current releases :o)
Nitzinger is touring, when not in studio
Enthusiests, publishers, and promoters that don't know him should check this guy out, he puts on a great show.

Music Distributers such as this one should be in touch also :o)
Thanks for the soapbox podium ..

Saturday Night Rock at Its Best

06/16/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If anyone feels better than an American on Saturday night, it's a Texan on Saturday night... just listen to "Louisiana Cockfight" for proof. Almost all of Side 1 features some of the best early 70s power-trio ever recorded. Kick-ass drumming too (from a gurl).Do yourself a gigantic favor and listen to Side 1 of this immediately followed by Dust's self-titled album. Then do your damnedess to build a time machine to go back to 1971."

"I tell you people-this and all Nitzinger releases are rock steady solid from start to finish-this dude was a major talent that i felt was often overlooked-I am old fan from the vinyl dayz good music like this only improves with age-from Johns Bloodrock days till this release he steadily advanced the perfection of his art-if you wanna hear that southern style Texas epitamy of purest rock blues this is the avenue to travel-not one single bad or weak song from amongst these trax you will have to search elsewhere and other artist for that-this dude delivers and then only delivers more,one of my favorite albums from any era-i am more than delighted to see his work in digital format of cd-do yourself a favor-let the rent go to get this one."
