Shocking Blue

An excellent and forgotten band from Holland in the late sixties. Much better than a lot of Anglo-American fluff from the same period. The trio "At Home," "Scorpio's Dance," and "Third Album" is absolutely noteworthy. Catchy but high quality at the same time. Mariska Veres was truly sexy in both voice and appearance: A sort of Grace Slick from Holland. R.I.P.
