Hard‘n’Heavy first album by Hard Stuff, originally released in 1972 on Purple Records (the label set up by Deep Purple’s management team).
Quintessential British Hard Rock/proto-Metal, featuring the outstanding guitar playing of John Cann (Andromeda, Atomic Rooster) and the powerful rhythm section of john Gustafson (Quatermass) and Paul hammond (Atomic Rooster).
This first Hard Stuff album included a lot of reworked/newly recorded material from the early line-up of Hard Stuff under the Bullet name, with vocalist Harry “Al” Shaw, who also appears here on five of the tracks.
“Sadly, all members of Hard Stuff have left this mortal plane, but their vast body of work and these supremely rocking LPs are testament to their absolutely bulletproof greatness” – Plastic Crimewave
