Special Order | | | Previously unreleased version of Sacrifice | | Just to let everyone know, this isn`t actually a reissue of Black Widow`s 1970 album Sacrifice, but rather an original 1969 recording of Sacrifice with a second vocalist, Kay Garret. This version had only surfaced recently. Apparently what happened as the band was recording Sacrifice, Kay Garret left, and the band re-recorded that album for CBS and the re-recorded version was the one that got released in 1970 as Sacrifice. This original 1969 collected dust until the late 1990s. If you`ve heard Sacrfice, you`ll noticed while the music is basically more or less the same, the arragements are a little different, such as "Seduction" where there were strings on Sacrifice, there are no strings on this version, and a Hammond organ is in its place. Also if you heard Return to the Sabbat, it sure seems refreshing to hear these songs sung by a female vocalist as well, something you won`t find on Sacrifice. Black Widow did actually record a proper album with Kay Garret, but it was under a different name called Pesky Gee. Pesky Gee released one album in 1969 called Exclamation Mark. I haven`t heard that one, but I understand it contains a lot of cover songs like Jethro Tull`s "Dharma For One", Janis Joplin`s "Piece of my Heart", Steppenwolf`s "Born to be Wild", and Family`s "Piece of Mind" (it so happens that Family was also from Leicestershire, just like Pesky Gee/Black Widow, so I`m sure the band knew Family). So if you like Sacrifice, and you like a slightly different twist to that album, be sure to get Return to the Sabbat. | | |
