Rare MP3 blog has been a favourite place of mine on par with Mutant Sounds for a large selection of quality out of print rare and obscure albums. The music there is a little more conventional than Mutant Sounds with a focus on blues based rock and prog from the late 60s and early 70s, which is a sort of music I like a lot. I have found many great albums there over the last few years and although the blog has been inactive for over a year now, there are still plenty of links still up to these rare gems.
Rumpelstiltskin were a quite impressive pop/rock band with prog leanings and a touch of Blood Sweat and Tears. This set is most enjoyable early 70s rock with some nice guitar work, a strong vocalist and a good variety of well crafted songs which I have been enjoying all week. One of those quality sets that has a mix of rockier full tempo tracks mixed with mellower moments put together in a successful mix. Not a top tier release, which is why it probably sunk without much impact when it was released, but still deserving of a bigger audience. Rating 4/5
