Enalpria – Rose Water / Shredded Heart. 1969 USA ~ Florida

And here we have their second 45. Yet another advanced release for the date. Superb psychedelic rock also mixes in some jazzy sequences, notable in the electric piano work. The B) has a haunting organ beginning, perhaps a Krautrock element is being brought forth. Enalpria weren't that creative yet, and the music moves into more of a pop psych direction. Still with some fine electric piano playing. Excellent band to my ears.

Enalpria – Speed Limit / Sliding. 1970 USA ~ Florida

The name Enalpria is simply Airplane spelled backwards. At least they tried for some originality. The group managed to get out three singles between 1967 and 1970, this being their last. The A) side is an excellent example of North American hard rock. Features a jamming Hammond and ripping fuzz guitar. Sort of Grand Funk Railroad and Rare Earth mixed together. The B) side introduces flute, and the music sounds more like something you'd hear in Italy during this era. I suppose Jethro Tull will enter the conversation, but the style of the music recalls some of the heavier bands emerging out of Continetal Europe. Think early Osanna or even Germany's Fashion Pink. Advanced thinking for 1970. Superb two sider.
