Yo, Blood! Wassup? - jazzboCR - 20-03-2015
Blodwyn Pig and Bloodrock is what.
One of the better blues-rock bands, Blodwyn Pig is Mick Abrahams, beginning to end...and still is--he's got a new album due soon. 2 great albums in the '60's, they revived themselves mightily in the '90's--raves from the citizen reviewers at the Usual Suspect q.v. Even when the material was weak, Mr. Abrahams was superb.

And now Bloodrock--one of North Texas' better bands--you could make a case that they strongly created and led their local hard-rock/blues-rock scene. Active from the late-'60's to mid-'70's.
