Sir Lord Baltimore - 1971 - Sir Lord Baltimore
Sir Lord Baltimore are a pioneering American heavy metal band from Brooklyn, New York, formed in 1968 by lead vocalist/drummer John Garner, guitarist Louis Dambra, and bass player Gary Justin. They are notable for the fact that a 1971 review of their debut record, Kingdom Come, contained the first documented use of the term "heavy metal" to refer to a style of music. Additionally, Sir Lord Baltimore featured a drumming lead singer, traditionally a rarity in rock and metal music. The group have been called "the godfathers of stoner rock." Sir Lord Baltimore is the second studio album by the band, released on Mercury Records in 1971. It was re-issued on PolyGram in 1994, and on Red Fox in 2003. This album marked a change in direction, with the frenetic pace of the earlier Kingdom Come's giving way to a slower-tempo. Sir Lord Baltimore expanded to a four-piece for this album, with Louis Dambra's brother, Joey Dambra, joining as a second guitarist. Sir Lord Baltimore contains the band's only officially released live recording, "Where Are We Going." 01 - Chicago Lives 02 - Loe And Behold 03 - Woman Tamer 04 - Caesar Lxxi 05 - Man From Manhattan 06 - Where Are We Going LINK
