The Groundhogs-Who Will Save The World? The Mighty Groundhogs (1972)

Inspired by the work of illustrator Neal Adams, The Groundhogs dared to challenge their rich British blues-rock past, and on their fifth album, they delved into experimentation, crafting their most avant-garde and progressive work. "Who Will Save The World? The Mighty Groundhogs", another Martin Birch-engineered masterpiece, was recorded at De Lane Lea's Studios in London and features a diverse collection of tracks brimming with allegorical themes, science fiction messages, and ecological statements. Musically, Tony McPhee's prominent guitar takes a backseat to the Mellotron. Even so, his driving riffs and guitar solos remain the hallmark of this legendary British band's sound. Songs like "Earth Is Not Enough", "Body in Mind", "Death Of The Sun" or "The Grey Maze", present a more heterogeneous musical panorama than the more recent past of this spectacular power trio formed by Tony McPhee, Pete Cruikshank and Ken Pustelnik.
