Blackwater Park — Dirt Box 1972 (Germany, Hard/Blues Rock)

The only album of the group from West Berlin. The musicians of this quartet presented to the audience another variation on the themes of the Anglo-American vision of hard rock and progressive rock. For greater authenticity of the chosen direction, the company of three Germans was a native of Foggy Albion, Richard Routledge. The record was recorded at the end of 1971 and almost immediately after the release it acquired the status of a rarity. However, musically, the musicians did not go beyond heavy blues and proto-progressive. Not a masterpiece, but a very strong, hard and rare album.
