Lucifer's Friend

Post by jeff robertson »

This isn't new, and it isn't "new to me" either, and I haven't even listened to it lately, but when I was writing my lyrics for "We Keep Them Alive" I kept hearing it in my head.

Executive summary: German band that you probably never heard of, records song that sounds (quite literally) like a mashup of "Immigrant Song" and "Children Of The Grave". Did I mention they did this BEFORE either of those was out?

Pretty cool, Jeff. I've never seen or heard a french horn used like that in a hard rock song. Lucifer's Friend rocks!

Not to bust your balls, but Zep formed in 68 and immigrant song dropped in 70. Lucifer's friend formed in 70. Children Of The Grave dropped in 71, so yeah, it came a whole year later. But they could have seen them and snaked the sound. I've heard that wasn't too uncommon back then. :wink:
