To the Nines!

First post to be labeled "Songs the Blogosphere Taught Me"

My records are probably my prize possession in terms of material things, but I don't have the biggest collection in the world, somewhere between 1100 and 1200 records. In a better economy I could cash them in and put a down payment on a house. I know that there are others out there with bigger collections and the internet is a great place to discover those people.

I have expanded my musical taste greatly in the last few years by diving full on into the blogosphere. There have been more than a few musical gems discovered since i started. Some bands I never even heard of and some I just never listened to before.

The song for this post is from a 70's band called Granicus who were (as described by Wapedia):

"Granicus was a short-lived band from the early 1970s who played a style of hard rock similar to Led Zeppelin.

Granicus hailed from Cleveland, Ohio, and were signed to RCA in 1973. They released a single, self-titled album before calling it quits. There are rumors that the band recorded a second album that was never released."

Not really my cup of tea musically but entertaining enough to post for its local history here in Cleveland.
Granicus - Cleveland, Ohio

i'm going to guess i've heard Mitch Capka play this at least once. It's right up his alley.
