Farm & Underground Fire (1971–1972 US Private Press) Heavy Blues/Psych Vinyl Stream

Welcome in to today's morning stream! Today we are dropping the needle on two ultra-rare pieces of private-press US heavy blues and garage psych back-to-back: the self-titled 1971 debut by Farm, followed by the self-titled 1972 private LP by Underground Fire. First up, we spin Farm, a six-piece group of teenagers from Southern Illinois who recorded their sole LP in early 1971 at Golden Voice Recording Studios in South Pekin, Illinois. Spun from the official Guerssen Records reissue, their sound delivers a phenomenal blend of twin lead guitars, soaring Hammond organ, congas, harmonica, and extended jams reminiscent of the Allman Brothers and Canned Heat. Highlights include the eight-minute opening jam "Jungle Song" and a heavy bottleneck slide cover of "Statesboro Blues". Next, we transition to North Carolina for an ultra-obscure garage psych grail: the self-titled 1972 private press by Underground Fire. Hailing from Monroe, NC, this five-piece outfit recorded their lone album at Arthur Smith Studios in Charlotte. Issued in extremely limited quantities with no formal label support, it delivers raw, fuzz-tinged garage rock and heavy guitar leads—featuring driving cuts like "Loving Man", "Evil Woman", and the extended 8-minute Side A jam "We Can Make It". Sit back, grab a fresh cup of coffee, and enjoy both of these underground US vinyl treasures! 00:00 Intro 09:42 Needle drops on 'Farm' 44:41 Needle drops on 'Underground Fire' 01:17:18 Close 🎧 Full Vinyl Rips Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn 📷 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ I sell my doubles and extras here: https://vinylpipershop.com/ Album 1: Farm – Farm (1971) Side A "Jungle Song" "Let That Boy Boogie" Side B "Sunshine In My Window" "Cottonfield Woman" "Statesboro Blues" Album 2: Underground Fire – Underground Fire (1972) Side A "Loving Man" "Love The One That Loves You" "I Love You" "We Can Make It" Side B "Evil Woman" "You'll Like It" "I Loved Her" "Cardack" #FarmBand #UndergroundFire #GuerssenRecords #HeavyBluesRock #AcidRock #GarageRock #70sRock #PrivatePress #SouthernIllinois #NorthCarolinaRock #VinylRip #VinylPiper #MorningStream
