FURR

VINYL RIP



Looking like a cross between Kiss and the Phantom of the Paradise, FURR play a mix of Black Nasty style funk, Savoy Brown sorta blues rock, freewheelin' 70s rock (good music to play Foosball to), with a couple references to black magic thrown in for good measure.
FURR had a slight tie to KISS in that their producers Kasenetz and Katz (Ohio Express, etc...) had a relationship with Neil Bogart of Buddah and Casablanca Records who also masterminded the marketing of Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter.
Sure the best thing about the album is the cover, but after the initial disappointment, I actually liked the record for what it was. If anyone has info on these guys, leave comments!
