Spur / Spur Of The Moments

Drag City

“What if Buffalo Springfield had hung in there and totally kicked ass by 1971?” A reissue of the best tracks from the extremely rare Spur Of The Moments LP from Belleville, Illinois outfit SPUR. Gorgeous harmonies soaring above utterly driving guitars, amid heady studio trickery paints a picture not unlike the sainted pop of your Big Stars or Badfingers. If you’re a fan of bands that seamlessly and viscerally integrated country, rock, psychedelia, folk and really everything grand in rock’n’roll, à la the Byrds, Moby Grape or even the Flying Burrito Brothers, prepare to have your doors blown off by a band that will soon be regarded as esteemed contemporaries of all of them. Packaged as close as could be to the original beautiful LP, Spur of the Moments features an insert of sweet unreleased photos and ephemera. No Export to Europe.
