Blodwyn Pig Ahead Rings Out I believe has similarities to This Was in sound and style. I have to be in a nostalgic British Blues Rock mood to appreciate it...yet some sections of the album sound like Progressive Rock or rather what people defined then as Art Rock. It's definitely a worthwhile listen.

It's good to see another vote for Blodwyn Pig, having just listened to Ahead Rings Out for the first time today. Pig

Nice voted for them. I enjoy Ahead Rings Out and This Was about equally - both solid 7/10's to me.
Wow! Three votes already for Blodwyn Pig. That's pretty good going for such a late entry to the poll. Thumbs Up

Okay, Wild Turkey's Battle Hymn has just been added. It's a great album and arguably the best album in the poll. Thumbs Up
