Tough li’l buzzzzz-driven blooze/rock 7” from the fairly unknown California act, The Ferguson Tractor. Released around 1968, it has obvious hints of that area’s PSYCH sound (Big Brother, KAK, Country Joe, etc.) without trippin’ into over-indulgent hippie turf. The hearty use of wah-wah fuzz and plenty o’ echo give its A-side “12 O’Clock High” just enough bite to qualify it for garage comps like the Echoes In Time series. Sources list this oddball single as Ferguson Tractor’s ONLY release which is a bummer ‘cause I coulda seen ‘em progress into some real HEAVY rawk ala Blue Cheer!
