Golden Earring - Moontan US (1973) (Remaster Edit 2001)
Import remastered reissue of the long running Dutch rock act's 1973 album.
This is the US pressing, which contains "Big Tree, Blue Sea" whose original version is on Golden Earring and leaves out "Suzy Lunacy" and "Just Like Vince Taylor" along with the racier cover art on the European pressing. "Blue Sea" is a fantastic, musically adventerous track by itself, almost exactly anticipating Heavy Horses_era Tull by a full five years! Having indulged themselves and surprised the listener with the extremes of their artier tendencies, there are blasts of dense hard rock ("Candy's Gone Bad"), complex riffing and generous quantities of strings and well-used horns ("Vanilla Queen") and then there's the single. its much easier to digest after all these times in the context of the rest of the album. Im constantly surprised how much this band's best output has been ignored by reviewers when considering great music in this decade. You could fit it into prog-rock or hard rock categories in equal parts. This is the ultimate driving album. THE album to own by this band.
