This ultra-rare and almost totally unknown LP was the second ever to be released by Help, a small record label that didn’t last long, known to the Italian progressive rock collectors thanks to bands like Quella Vecchia Locanda and Procession. Thanks to the liaison with the Austrian producer Eddy Korsche, the same label released some German artists’ records, together with this “Plays Eddy Korsche - Rock & Blues”, made by gathering together some session musicians as with Blue Phantom or Braen’s Machine.
The main characteristic of this album is its groove that emerges from each of its 12 tracks, some of them sounding like a perfect accompaniment to a car chase typical of some police movie of those years. The real protagonist here is the Hammond organ, dosed in a huge quantity in every song, both as a leading than a backing instrument: Hammond and guitar often exchange their roles, while drums and bass guitar offer a solid rhythmic ground.
“Plays Eddy Korsche...” has also a terrific sonic production, really clear and heavy for a 1970 release.

Library style Italian exploito psychy LP with gurgly organ!
BLOGNOTES / RUMOURS...
1. Italian exploito band playing the crazed music of an obscure Austrian producer. This album is filled with Hammond madness and bluesy psych vibes. A real delight from beginning to end! Rumoured to be SUB in disguise!
2. Eddy Korsche was an Austrian producer, and apparently/reputedly the guy who sold the Sub LP tapes to Help Records in Italy without the band knowing!
3. Eddy Korsche produced the first three singles by Under-2000.
4. Free Action Inc. were Fabio Fabiani, Baldasseroni Remo, Sandro Laudadio and Aldo Parente, according to one source.

Crazed German studio musicians from Hamburg doing exploito psych that has nothing to do with Italians or SUB. Members of Rattles & Wonderland that also did many records under different names: Moody Five, Blue Grass Champions, Hell Preachers Inc., The Ravers, Bokaj Retsiem, etc. This record was also released under the title "Beat Club Internaional" on the Perl Serie label with added vocals here: http://www.discogs.com/Das-Louis-Shampton-Trio-Beat-Club-International/release/2981682
