Album Number One Hundred Eighty Eight “Canned Heat” is their 1967 self-titled debut album. It was released shortly after their appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival, and is a blues cover album. My copy is on #libertyrecords - LST-7526. (Unfortunately, looks like something was peeled off the front and left a scar. And, a ‘5’ in ink, upper left) The initial members: #bobhite – lead vocals (except “Help Me”) #alanwilson – rhythm and slide guitar, lead vocals on “Help Me”, harmonica #henryvestine – lead guitar #larrytaylor – bass #frankcook – drums #rockandroll #bluesrock #sixtiesmusic #cannedheat (Note to self: launched by two blues enthusiasts Wilson and Hite, who took the name from Tommy Johnson's 1928 "Canned Heat Blues", a song about an alcoholic who had desperately turned to drinking Sterno, generically called "canned heat", from the original 1914 product name Sterno Canned Heat.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWLdSv6rC-1/?utm_medium=tumblr
