Customer Reviews:

70's.......2007-02-16

D.O.A. was a great song in the 70's and still is good old hard rock without the insulting thumping of the new music.

WHAT D.O.A. IS ABOUT.......2006-09-18

First off, If you can buy this album do it! Do it for the first track. The musicianship is amazing, and well worth the cost of the lp, or cd. As for D.O.A. IT IS ABOUT A PLANE CRASH. THE "ATTENDANT" IS THE HOSPITAL ATTENDANT WHO DRAPPED THE SHEET ACROSS HIS CHEST! AND HOW CAN ANYONE THINK IT WAS A CAR CRASH? "WE WERE FLYING ALONE, AND HIT SOMETHING IN THE AIR!" The simple fact that he's explaining being in a hospital makes this whole misconscieption about the "attendant" so much easier!

DOA- Great song from a Great album.......2006-08-01

For some reason DOA and Bloodrock came to mind and decided to do a search. There is probabaly not much to add to what has been written by others here. As with many, I remember DOA the most and was kind of a dark song for back in the early 70's (At least for radio airplay). I was able to see Bloodrock and GrandFunk Railroad play back then. I'm not sure if the song DOA has been redone by anyone but always thought that perhaps Type O Negative could have done something cool with the song or even M. Manson could have put a different twist to the song. Last year some of the members of Bloodrock got together to do a show in Texas but I was unable to make it. I guess I better dust off the old LP's and have a listen.........

"DOA" MAKES THE EFFORT A+!.......2006-07-02

"DOA" POSSIBLY ONE OF THE GREATEST ACID ROCK SONGS EVER RECORDED AND IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST UNDER RATED RECORDINGS WAY WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME IN ROCK HISTORY.PRODUCED BY TERRY KNIGHT WHO ALSO PRODUCED GRAND FUNK AND LATER RUSH ALBUMS,THIS CD BRINGS BACK THE GREAT VOICE OF JIM RUTLEDGE AND THE DEEP CHILLING KEYBOARD WORK OF STEVIE HILL AND THE REST OF THE GUYS THAT I HEARD FOR THE FIRST TIME BACK IN 1971 WHEN I FOUND"BLOODROCK2"ON A FOUR TRACK CARTRIDGE(REMEMBER THOSE)AT A FLEA MARKET WHEN I WAS 18 YEARS OLD.ITS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD NOW JUST LIKE IT WAS BACK THEN...HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
