Blues Theme
Christian Century, Nov 29, 2005 by Lou R. Carlozo
Blues Theme, by Davie Allan & The Arrows (Sundazed). Instrumental pop.
In the 1960s, Davie Allan was a leading L.A. session guitarist who scored minor recognition playing surf pop. But on this 1967 disc--re-released by Sundazed--Allan shows the daring originality that led him to mix influences and embrace new technology. He shows off his then-new guitar fuzz box on the title track (a Top 40 hit) and on "King Fuzz" (with its otherworldly slide guitar). "Theme from the Unknown" mixes spacey organ and Wild West rifling. This album is fabulously dated.
