What a great record. "Venus" is great, yeah, but it's not my personal fave - what about you?

"send me a postcard" for sure but honorable mention for MIGHTY JOE WITH THE BASS VOICE

So this is where I ruin the thread by pointing out that the first self-titled Shocking Blue album isn't this one, but this one - the only album of theirs without Mariska Veres:

What we're polling is the American version of SB's second album At Home, but whatever album it's on "Send Me A Postcard" totally rules

thread not ruined, thank you! their discography has always been super confusing to me.

in the 90's some friends of mine had a garage-rock cover band and they did "Send Me A Postcard" and yeah it rules

still not my first pick here tho

Send Me A Postcard is such an absolute banger that it wins pretty much any poll ever

always loved "Boll Weevil." that thing will throw your hip out. first time hearing most of these. I like the sound and the vibe.. they must have been an influence on the Carrie Nations ha!
