Sir Lord Baltimore: Kingdom Come (Mercury)
Metal Mike Saunders, Creem, May 1971
ALL YOU TRUE blue Heavy fans, take heart. This album is a crusher. Sure enough, Sir Lord Baltimore is none other than a new heavy band discovered by Dee Anthony, Who Should Know (Joe Cocker, Free, Humble Pie); and while SLB's degree of success hasn't been determined yet, they've certainly got what it takes to rake in a million.
