Omnibus. 1970 United Artists
---1/5/11
Omnibus were a band from New Jersey with a strong affinity for the Doors. Perhaps given the later date, Omnibus were more aggressive than Morrison and company, and the organ of choice is the Hammond (instead of a Vox Continental). Plenty of psychedelic fuzz guitar as well. Vocalist does a nice job of emulating Jim Morrison's sonorous tone. File next to the first Dragonwyck album as a good example of post-Doors heavy rock.

Yep - not much to add there. The fuzz guitar is really stinging which is probably the largest separator from the Doors. Another one of those American albums that came around in 1970, about one year too late for its audience.
Priority: 2***Reissued on LP by Wah Wah (2018)
