"Originally released as a private pressing and on label Contraband, Orange Wedge's first album Wedge features seven songs full of driving guitars and strong vocals. Orange Wedge hailed from Baltimore, Maryland, where they formed in 1968. They released two albums (CD release second album No One Left But Me, Long Hair LHC 068CD). Both albums show a mix of long and short songs and lots of loud guitars. Excellent songwriting and remarkable hooks, too. Highlights of the album are 11-minute track 'Death Comes Slowly' and final song 'Revenge', which features some superb Neil Young-influenced guitar playing. CD comes with comprehensive booklet, liner notes by guitar player and composer Joe Farace, and a lot of unseen photos. Digitally remastered. Highly recommended."

Title:	No One Left But Me
Label:	LONG HAIR (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$24.00
Catalog #:	LHC 068CD

"Second album from 1974 is more of the same but slightly more aggressive vocally, particularly on tile track 'No One Left But Me' and with more guitar exhibitionism on 'Hungary Man'. 'Dream' is a pleasant instrumental. 'The Gates' provides a 10-minute stunning finale much in the West Coast-style. Excellent guitar-driven sound all over the album with a melodic psych/prog/rock feel. Occasional use of piano and acoustic guitars make for a varied sound. Lots of loud guitars with great solos. Comprehensive booklet with unseen photos. Digitally remastered. Highly recommended."
