100% top copy =original= 1972 Legendary "OHR" records collectible = seldom seen !

  A difficult to find , rewarding "Krautrock" OHR (1972) Original ... 

Something of a Heavy psychedelia Progressive gem - exactly in phase of the BRITISH good old days. Killer Deep Purple influence sitting everywhere, most noticeably is the gushing Hammond organ & guitar interplay.

Highlights are all over the place

During the energetic "Stop Little Lady" it seems classic DEEP PURPLE LP rippers, "In Rock" & "Machine Head" are leading the Birth Control formula! Very turned-on styles that collectors seek!

The LP's rhythms keeping frenzy within "The Work is Done" and "Flesh and Blood" hard-psych influences. Then BIRTH CONTROL really getting into it with "Pandemonium" - gushing Organ & guitar battles are HUGE.

Often on-par with the greatest of surging "Krautrock" '70s glories !

Overall, the mightily scarce "Believe In The Pill" LP is full of great hardrock/prog & psychedelia.

Late sixties / early seventies UK influences in ENERGY
