Shocking Blue: At Home & 3rd Album (1969-1971 Netherlands | Psychedelic Rock / Pop Rock / Nederbeat)

Spinning a double-feature of the ultimate Dutch underground powerhouses: Shocking Blue and their essential 1969-1971 run. We are dropping the needle on original Pink Elephant pressings of both At Home and 3rd Album, capturing the band at their absolute creative and commercial peak. Most people know them for the global hit "Venus," but these two LPs prove they were far more than a one-hit-wonder. From the fuzzed-out, sitar-drenched grit of "Love Buzz" (famously covered by Nirvana) on the At Home sessions, to the driving, technical energy of "Shocking You" on their 3rd Album, this is a masterclass in the "Nederbeat" sound. Featuring the powerhouse vocals of the legendary Mariska Veres and the visionary songwriting of Robbie van Leeuwen, these sessions represent the perfect blend of catchy 60s hooks and heavy 70s psychedelic exploration. If you’re into powerful female-led rock, Eastern-influenced psych jams, and high-voltage analog production, this double-header is essential listening. 💿 Featured Albums: At Home (1969) - Pink Elephant 888.001 (Gatefold) 3rd Album (1971) - Pink Elephant PE 877.010-G Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ Full vinyl rips playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn #ShockingBlue #MariskaVeres #AtHome #3rdAlbum #Nederbeat #VinylRip #LoveBuzz #PsychedelicRock #PinkElephant #DutchRock #VinylCommunity #1971Rock #VinylPiper
