Blind Dog - The Last Adventures of Captain Dog (Part 1)

Ben and John begin their discussion of Blind Dog's debut album, The Last Adventures of Captain Dog.  Originally self-released in 1999, the album would see a number of pressings in subsequent years on the Meteor City and People Like You labels amongst others.   Though the band hailed from Sweden, they played a version of stoner rock not out of place alongside american bands such as Kyuss, COC, Monster Magnet, and Down.  The band's take on US heavy ultiamtely showcased a more song-forward sensibility and musicianship that often outclassed their peers, easily avoiding stereotypes of lazy stoner musicians.   Part 2 of Ben and John's discussion will be available March 8, 2022 at https://greatestthingpodcast.com and on all major platforms.   The Greatest Thing You've Never Heard is a like a book club for your next favorite record.  Each episode is an in-depth examination of a single album that's worthy of greater recognition.  Our co-hosts, Ben and John, spend a full episode discussing an album and then often use a follow-up episode to interview the band that recorded it.
