Was listening to some tracks off this album earlier today. Gotta say damn this album smokes!
Really love all the riffs and John Lawton's vocals are really spot on. I also dig the creepy vibe throughout.

Awesome tape. Someday I hope to find, and be able to afford, a copy on wax.

If side 2 was equal in quality to side 1, this would have been the greatest Hard Rock album in history.

I just found Banquet on vinyl, having not listened to them before. What a marked difference between their earlier and later material. I definitely like the earlier stuff better, haha.

Every song on this album is good. Makes me wonder how John Lawton was never able to capture the same magic after this album. I like some of his stuff in Uriah Heep,but no way is it better than this.

I hear covers of Keep Goin' all the time now that I've finally listened to this.

I just listened to Groupies killed and that is a good one too. Weird mix of 70's hard rock and prog but the singer is great

I don't recall ever hearing their first, but I have had When the Groupies Killed.. since it came out on Billingsgate (in the US).

I always thought of it as the greatest Deep Purple album that they never made...

Finally got an original US pressing from 1973. It came sealed and delivered to my door for less than $40. Analogue sounds sick.
Without a doubt one of the heaviest LPs from 1970 in a year full of heavy.
