Hard Stuff – Bolex Dementia – Vinyl LP

• Remastered sound

• Insert with liner notes by Plastic Crimewave and photos / memorabilia

Second and last album by HARD STUFF, originally released in 1973 on Purple Records.

This time, the three-piece hard-rock group led by JOHN CANN (Andromeda, Atomic Rooster…) and featuring John Gustafson on bass and Paul Hammond on drums, incorporate some cool funk-rock and experimental touches to their powerful sound.

After touring with Deep Purple, Uriah Heep and Captain Beefheart, Hard Stuff started recording their second album at A.I.R studios with a few songs actually registered at De Lane Lea. Sadly, just before the LP was released, tragedy struck and Cann and Hammond were badly injured in a car crash in Belgium. Hammond took the worst part, having to stay for two months at the hospital. That was the end for Hard Stuff.
