Canned Heat is a seminal American blues rock / boogie rock band that was founded in December 1965 in Los Angeles. Known for their energetic performances and unique blend of blues, rock, and boogie-woogie, the band quickly gained popularity in the late 1960s.

With influences from artists such as *Ten Years After*, *John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers*, and *The Yardbirds*, Canned Heat created a distinctive sound that resonated with audiences around the world. Their music often featured powerful guitar riffs, harmonica solos, and soulful vocals.

Throughout their career, Canned Heat released numerous albums and achieved chart success with hits like "On the Road Again" and "Going Up the Country." They became known for their electrifying live performances at festivals such as Woodstock and Monterey Pop Festival.

As the Summer Of Love and the Hippie Movement was coming to a close, the mid-seventies continued to be very kind to the music of the legendary kings of the boogie Canned Heat. With their United Artists and Atlantic Records days behind them, they flew into Miami and began recording their latest material with Tom Dowd and Fito de la Parra and arrived at "The Ties That Bind" album.

Upon the completion of the recording sessions, the tapes were stored and never released, and initially were thought to have been destroyed in a fire at their manager's house in the late sevenites.

Years later, Fito located the 1974 tapes, they were rescued and restored by the classic bluesman, and were issued very briefly on a rare CD in the early 90's.

Now, as technology has been more favorable to restoring great music like this, long time Canned Heat associate Joe Reagoso went back into the studio and remastered "The Ties That Bind." Therefore, Friday Music is very pleased to announce the first time ever vinyl master release of Canned Heat's "The Ties That Bind-The Lost '74 Sessions."

Featuring some real hard rockin' blues from the legends like Ike Turner's "I Idolize You", Huey "Piano" Smith's "If It Ain't One Thing It's Another" Canned Heat's own "Boogie and Blues" "Sad Ol' Mountain Sorrow" and a bonus live track of Jimmy Rogers' classic "Chicago Bound."
