I strongly believe that “Siogo” is the best but one the less known works of
Blackfoot. They become very known with albums like “Strikes” and
“Tomcattin’”, and they took their name from an native race with whom Medlocke was
related. Another thing that makes “Siogo” so special is the presence of Ken Hensley who he also wrote some of the
songs.
The result was the great hard rockin’
(with also some southern rock elements) “Siogo” which was far away from what they had done till that
moment. In this album someone can find eternal hard rock hymns like “Teenage
Idol”, and
“Send Me An Angel”, so
it’s a deep shame for a hard rock fan not to have this album or even worse not to have listened to those historical
songs!!! I’m not exaggerating but
it’s generally acceptable that
“Siogo” is one the diamonds of this music and especially of the hard rock
genre.
All of you that you are eternally searching things out and you are wild spirits grab this unique album wherever you find
it! Don’t loose the chance to listen to such a damn good album.
It’s absolutely recommended my
friends!
