The band, Blodwyn Pig (blawd-win) is definitely one of the Best Bands You’ve Never Heard In Your Life. The band formed after original Jethro Tull guitarist, Mick Abrahams left Tull in 1968. It is said that Abrahams and Ian Anderson did not agree on the musical direction of the band, Abrahams preferring the hard blues-rock style and Anderson starting to write in a more progressive rock style. (Who won that feud, would you say?) Blodwyn Pig released two albums, one in 1969 and one in 1970, and this song is from the second album, titled Getting To This. It’s one of the Best Bands You’ve Never Heard In Your Life, Blodwyn Pig with “See My Way”…
And here’s a bonus for ya…
