they were before black sabbath they invented heavy metal lol and there named after lsd :)
If you ask me, both ... ( 6 days ago by spicy64)
If you ask me, both Blue Cheer and Black Sabbath had a hand in the creation of Heavy Metal. Blue Cheer came up with the heavy sound, the distortion in the guitars and boom in their drums. With Black Sabbath, it was the formation of Heavy Metal's image as the dark, sinister look we all know and love.
So in actuality, credit of Heavy Metal's birth goes to both bands. No question about it.

this song sure rocks! The Who's Live at Leeds version is also great, but I like this one slightly more because of its demented, disorienting groove.

Also Sir Lord Baltimore, they were the first band in print at least to be described as 'heavy metal'. Similar to this, but not quite as good.

A lot of the incredible sound is probably in his fingers too though!
Thanks a lot =)

This style, in a hard rock setting, one could say it is the type of sound produced IN BETWEEN the phase of "Psychedelic/Acid" rock, and a style that would later come to be called "Heavy Metal" originated by Black Sabbath.

A transition, so to speak.

Agreed..
The rhythm section shares alot of similar sound with Sabbath. You can almost hear the intro to "Children of the Grave" here.

Leigh Stevens, guitar extroardinaire
Paul Whaley, great drums
This was 1968. They are generally considered the first Heavy Metal group of note. And they were the loudest U.S. group playing live. The Who was considered to be the loudest rock bad. Hard to say because these groups were measured with sound level meters set at different weightings and set at various distances from the loud speakers.

This is Randy Holden on guitar, not Leigh Stevens, and the band was faking it at the Beat Club, as was common practice. I read about the Cream doing the same thing there. There was a video of Summertime Blues with Leigh Stevens that was just taken down, but he played the guitar quite differently from Randy Holden.
It is and I thought ... ( 8 hours ago by warehambr)
It is and I thought the same thing. I chatted by email with some knowledgable people and this is definitely Randy Holden. I thought it pretty amazing that they could fake a concert but apparently that's the way Beat Club operated. There was a great vid of Blue Cheer from American Bandstand, but it just got pulled. It showed Leigh playing in the true fashion, but even that may have been faked for TV. I didn't think that Randy could play completely differently and sound the same as Leigh.
