Album Description

Back in 1970 a 5-piece band from Long Island, New York, inexplicably changed its name from Soft White Underbelly to Stalk-Forrest Group and made the Journey to Los Angeles and the offices of Elektra Records, then riding high with their two rock-psych bands Love and The Doors. This reissue of the unreleased California session, bearing the name of the 90s German bootleg, has been remastered. Radioactive. 2004.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Pre-Blue Oyster Cult.......2007-01-02

St. Cecilia was the Stalk-Forrest Groups only release for Electra records. It's basically the core of BOC before that band was formed. The sound is also a bit different than BOC, sort of a less intense psychedelic style with strong guitar playing by Buck Dharma throughout.

The song quality of the album is fairly strong all the way through, a bit more accessible than BOC I'd say. The original album was difficult to get for years and the original pressing is a collector's item. The re-release from '98 finally made it available to a wider audience.

If you like tuneful, late psychedelic-ish songs with great guitar riffs throughout you'll like St. Cecelia. BOC lovers will get this one, classic-rock lovers ought to follow suit as well. Good Album.
