These recordings from the Kansas City threesome, <strong>JPT</strong> <strong>Scare</strong> <strong>Band</strong>,<br />

from 1973-75, have been bootlegged for eons at pricey sums. If the<br />

band had a signed record contract back in the early '70s, there is no<br />

doubt they would be up there with Jimi Hendrix, Cream, and Black<br />

Sabbath for guitar overload damage. Unfortunately, these recordings<br />

never really made it out of the inner circles of hard psych heads.<br />

This is a classic snapshot into the basement of a true American<br />

Rock <strong>Band</strong> doing what they do best. It is easy to imagine all their<br />

friends freaking freely to their brand of tripped-out, space-vibe rock.<br />

Interesting liner and production notes round out this great package<br />

(lots of photos, lyrics, etc.) and proves that, in the mid-'70s, not all of<br />

American rock was asleep or staring at its navel.<br />

The <strong>JPT</strong> <strong>Scare</strong> <strong>Band</strong>'s screaming electric psych/blues barely made it<br />

past the basement where they first rehearsed back in 1973, but<br />

someone was smart enough to tape these three titans of volume at<br />

work. That work became the album known as Sleeping Sickness, an<br />

album spoke about in hushed reverence among heavy psych heads<br />

that were lucky enough to hear it.<br />

<strong>Past</strong> is <strong>Prologue</strong> gives us a snapshot of the band through time,<br />

including tracks recorded in <strong>1975</strong>, '76, '77, <strong>'93</strong> - and oddly the best<br />

track, Sci-Fi acid-epic "Burn in Hell", recorded in 2001. The reason I<br />

say "oddly", is because the band seems not to have skipped a beat<br />

over the years. The musical chemistry between the three members<br />

of the band is awe- inspiring..."Burn in Hell" sounds as fiery and<br />

intense as, say, "Time To Cry" did back in '75.<br />

The beauty of the <strong>JPT</strong> <strong>Scare</strong> <strong>Band</strong> is it's ability to function as a unit<br />

in the nebulous field of the free-form heavy jam. They start with a<br />

chord progression and the rest is a musical conversation, the<br />

direction dictated by unspoken energies. Terry Swope is a gawdam<br />

genius. One of the best all around soul guitarists I've ever heard.<br />

The kind that are unencumbered by strict technique and play soley<br />

based on smoldering emotion. Definitely in the league with the best<br />

in that genre...Hendrix, Duane Allman, Robin Trower and Carlos<br />

Santana. The other two comparatively unheralded players in the<br />

band are of equal importance - bassist Paul Grigsby anchors the<br />

band with an equal amount of soul and passion and drummer Jeff<br />

Littrell knows when to dig in with a fill and push the band a bit, and<br />

then back off in the more soulful moments. The end result is nothing<br />

short of mind-blowing.<br />

A must for those into heavy psych and/or those that are true<br />

aficionados of the mysteries of the jam.<br />

Highly Recommended for heavy stoner freaks!!!<br />
