Rain - 1971... The Lost Album 1971 Hard Rock, Blues Rock

A collection of original songs that the band recorded in the summer of 1971, lost & forgotten for nearly 50 years!
Rochester, New York's Rain offer one of their heaviest tracks in this collection, "This Is No Place". This is packed with tight riffs that come with a refreshingly punky sneer in the vocals. Members were Brad Morse (vocals), Ted Paris (bass), Mick Guerin (drums) and Helmut Getto (guitar). Their first LP was a self-released and subsequently much-bootlegged recording of a show at the Mariner Hotel ballroom on Christmas night, 1970. This record was played on local radio and made them enough money for some recordings which were intended to be their first proper LP, but after signing to RCA, and some meddling from the label, the endeavor failed and the band broke up.

These recordings have now been released officially by New York's Jargon Records, as "1971... The Lost Album". Both the bands' records are great and come with a grade-A TDATS heaviness seal of approval. More can read in a recent interview with Helmut Getto at It's Psychedelic Baby and Jargon Record's website...r0b0c0p May 12 2023
