Nucleus (1969)

Nucleus (Canadian) 180g vinyl reissue/ remaster

   Canada's Nucleus was the precursor of "a foot in coldwater" with Hughie Leggat and Danny Taylor anchoring the band.    Nucleus only released one album in their short lifespan and what a beauty it is !  Psych meet prog meets rock in an album that ebbs and flows with some great songs and great musicianship. 
  I love the chunchy organ work of Bob Horne and the acid guitar riffs of John Richardson.  Musically this is acid psych rock ala 1969 where psychedelic, rock and prog all started to combine.  The end result is a very cool album that is totally awesome with all 6 songs being totally amazing!
