The McCoys - Infinite McCoys album flac

The McCoys were a rock group formed in Union City, Indiana in 1962. They are best known for their 1965 hit single "Hang on Sloopy". Their name was changed from Rick and the Raiders to The McCoys, taken from the B side of The Ventures hit record Walk-Don't Run titled "The McCoy" (Dolton 25X). The original members were all from Union City; however, the Zehringer boys were initially from Fort Recovery, Ohio.

Anyone who picked up the McCoys' third album, 1968's Infinite McCoys, expecting a set of R&B-flavored garage rock in the manner of their 1965 hit "Hang on Sloopy" was doubtless very confused once they got two or three minutes into the opening cut, a meandering psychedelic exercise called "Faces" replete with overdubbed mumbling and goofy sound effects, and the brassy. sway of "Jesse Brady" and the low-key piano jazz exercise "Resurrection" which followed certainly didn't help reassure puzzled listeners

The two Zehringer brothers then known as Rick Derringer and Randy Z and Hobbs became Johnny Winter's band for the albums Johnny Winter And and Live Johnny Winter And in 1970 and 1971 respectively As backing musicians, both Derringer and Hobbs contributed to Winter's later releases, Still Alive and Well 1973, Saints & Sinners 1974 and John Dawson Winter III 1974 Derringer.

Infinite and Human Ball by the McCoys, from 1968 and '69, are not the psychedelic lab rats their covers may lead you to think. A lot of albums from this era came in acid party favor packaging only to play as workman's rock and roll. Human Ball works along the same line: a great rock album that branches-listen to the beautiful Bossa, "Epilouge.

The McCoys' fourth album, 1969's Human Ball, opens and closes with the band laying out some tough blues workouts on-stage at the Scene, one of New York's more celebrated rock clubs of the day, and on this score the LP was already an improvement over the pretentious meandering of their previous long-player, Infinite McCoys.
