The Snake by Pink Fairies (1970)


The Pink Fairies are often referred to as pre-punk or proto-punk. I'm not quite sure how they got that label. The music that they created sounds a lot more like rock bands of the late 60's/early 70's than that of the Sex Pistols, Ramones, or the Clash(I'm not even sure if the Clash was really a punk band. But that argument is for another day).

The Fairies could produce good time rock n roll. But here, in the early days of the band, they were a little more serious with some extended jamming.
