From AMG All Music Guide :

In the early '90s, it seems every shaggy-headed rock dude from here to Timbuktu
had jumped head first into grunge or "heavy alternative," and in the late '90s,
the same approach had mutated into stoner rock, but at heart it all boiled down
to the same thing — young guys with big amps who longed to sound as heavy and
punishing as Black Sabbath in their salad days. Sucking the 70's is a
double-disc compilation featuring 35 different bands each covering a (usually)
FM-radio-approved hard rock hit from the first era of marijuana-enhanced hard
rock, the 1970s. Pretty much everyone here has dropped their tunings, jacked up
their amps, and aimed for maximum heaviness, either in the pursuit of a
faithful tribute (Throttlerod's "Black Betty" is the spitting image of Ram
Jam's version, while Raging Slab — yep, they're still at it — are obviously
honored to be taking a stab at Grand Funk's "We're an American Band") or a
thorough reworking (witness Porn (The Men Of)'s slow grinding take of Neil
Young's "Out on the Weekend" and Suplecs's brutal throb on Rush's "Working
Man"). But most of these covers either ape the original closely enough to bring
nothing new to the table, or drift so far from the original that the better
qualities of the songs are lost. (Notable exception: Lord Sterling's thick but
fleet-footed take on the MC5 rarity "Black to Comm.") Yeah, it's all big,
heavy, and rockin', but Sucking the 70's just isn't any fun, and even the
scuzziest '70s rock was still about a good time, and if you really want to hear
some balls-out rock with a strong '70s influence, last that I heard Paranoid
and Master of Reality were both still in print. — Mark Deming

Original performer is AC/DC, album "Let There Be Rock" 1977.


Originally by UFO, album "Phenomenon", 1974. It is Michael
Schenker's "signature" song, he performs it with his group MSG also.
One of the best songs ever, IMHO. Simple, but a gem.


Originally by Black Sabbath, album "Black Sabbath" 1970.


Cheers, Csaba
