As the summer of love and hippie movement came to a close, the mid-70s continued to be very kind to the music of the legendary kings of the boogie Canned Heat. With their United Artists and Atlantic Records days behind them, they flew into Miami and began recording their latest material with Tom Dowd and Fito de la Parra and arrived at The Ties That Bind album. Upon the completion of the recording sessions, the tapes were stored and never released, and initially were thought to have been destroyed in a fire at their manager's house in the late-70s. Years later, Fito located the 1974 tapes, they were rescued and restored by the classic bluesman, and were issued very briefly on a rare CD in the early-90s. Now, as technology has been more favorable to restoring great music like this, long time Canned Heat associate Joe Reagoso went back into the studio and remastered The Ties That Bind. Therefore, Friday Music is very pleased to present the first time ever vinyl master release of The Ties That Bind: The Lost '74 Sessions. Includes some real hard rockin' blues numbers like Ike Turner's "I Idolize You", Huey "Piano" Smith's "If It Ain't One Thing It's Another," and Canned Heat's own "Boogie and Blues" and "Sad Ol' Mountain Sorrow" plus a bonus live track of the Jimmy Rogers' classic "Chicago Bound." Pressed on colored 180g vinyl LP housed in a stunning die-cut circular cover!
