NQB –Long Long Weekend


NQB –Long Long Weekend/ Free The People –Hendrix Music Production SSS1040 (1973 Sweden)

NQB were an all female Swedish combo and Long Long Weekend is a rousing Junkshop Glam Stomper much in the tradition of Bonnie St. Claire or Heart (the Dutch one). Similar in chord structure to Bitch/ Mustard’s Good Time Coming, the performance is top notch with pounding piano and a mean lead guitar.
The B side is also interesting as it’s a gospel influenced rocker with mentions of freeing the people from the Bayou????
NQB had at least one album and more singles released, I would be interested to know if anything else lives up to the promise shown on this release.
