From Springdale Arkansas comes this Heavy Fuzz double-sided Bone Crunching release that ticks all the boxes in terms of primal Neanderthal thudding with the vocalist Ken Wade mastering a snotty growly delivery across the 2 sides. Aimless Lady is NOT the Grand Funk tune, but a lesson in how to not stray away from a groove once it’s been launched. The B side is slightly more aimless but with some killer guitar and caveman-like vocals. The recording took place at John’s Recording Studio in Russellville, it seems the studio is still in business, but looking at the Google Maps satellite pic, it appears to be a large barn with some of the roof missing!

Hey, wait - there's something fishy going on here! Here's Black Oak Arkansas doing the same song on their 1971 debut album. Their album just credits it to "Black Oak Arkansas."

Cheers...Perhaps they "had an arrangement..."
Aimless Lady is the Grand Funk tune but with different arrangements.
