Preserve Wildlife by Mama Lion
Heavy blues and psychedelic hard-rock by this US band formed by Lynn Carey (ex-C.K. Strong) and Neil Merryweather.
Powerful cover versions and strong original songs dominated by the powerful vocals of Lynn Carey, explosive guitar riffs by Rick Gaxiola, keyboard wizard James Newton Howard and the funky rhythm section of Neil Merryweather (bass) and Coffi Hall (drums).
This is their debut album, originally released in 1972 on Artie Ripp’s Family Productions label and housed in a striking (and polemic) gatefold die-cut sleeve showing Lynn Carey breastfeeding a lion cub.
*24-bit remaster from the original master tapes
“…There were very few hard rock bands with female singers, and the original songs are heavy enough that this really stands out from the pack...”
- Aaron Milenski
