Spooky Tooth - Spooky Two

Rating: 4/5

Review:
Still a very decent album

This is still a very decent album.  I somehow managed to miss Spooky Tooth almost entirely first time round and, as so often, I'm indebted to Mark Barry for nudging me to try them again almost 50 years on.

Spooky Two is good, slightly generic late-60s rock.  There's decent material and good musicianship which sounds in various places a bit like Free, a bit like Family, a bit like Deep Purple…you get the idea.  Good solid riffs, quite varied vocals and a bit of the high-speed diddly-diddly lead guitar which featured so often at the time and frequently didn't add up to much.

It's not a classic, but it's good stuff of its kind, so if you're into rock of the period it's definitely worth a try.
