Description

White Witch – White Witch

Released: 1972 | Capricorn Records | Original Pressing | LP

The self-titled debut album from White Witch, a Florida-based hard rock band whose sound combined heavy guitar riffs, progressive influences and dramatic vocals. Released in 1972 on Capricorn Records, the album captures the adventurous spirit of early-1970s American rock, sitting somewhere between hard rock, progressive rock and psychedelia.

Driven by powerful guitar work, Hammond organ and dynamic arrangements, White Witch moves between heavy riffing and more atmospheric passages. The band had a theatrical edge that set them apart from many of their contemporaries, giving the album a distinctive character and making it an interesting discovery for collectors of obscure early-70s rock.

The album has subsequently developed a strong following among collectors of underground and private-press-style American rock, particularly for its combination of heaviness, melody and progressive touches.
