Octopus

Octopus’s modest stature with enthusiasts is because of the actual fact that they recorded for the ESP label, which specialized in a few from the strangest rock and roll, jazz, and avant-garde music from the 1960s (the Fugs were their most well-known rock-band). If not really for this happenstance, it’s doubtful that their self-titled LP (from 1969) will be a sought-after item. The music group, which in the sound of stuff were very youthful, played typical past due-’60s hard rock-psychedelia, with lengthy bluesy jams plus some anti-establishment lyrics. Tom Miller’s tenor sax added a fresh jazzy feel for some from the instrumentation, but usually there was nothing at all significant about their materials or approach.
