{"product_id":"warhorse-4","title":"Warhorse","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormed in early 1970 by Deep Purple bassist Nick Simper, Warhorse began as a backing band for singer Marsha Hunt. The group initially also featured Rick Wakeman, but he departed the band in April 1970 to join Strawbs. The band’s self-titled debut album was released on Vertigo  in November 1970 and is a fine example of progressive hard rock of the era. With a heavy Hammond organ touch the group was in fact leading a new way of thinking, fusing neoclassical elements with heavy blues. Compared to label mates Black Sabbath, Warhorse were in the end much closer to Atomic Rooster and Quatermass. A truly welcomed re-issue in gatefold vinyl!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiseraven","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50531134210379,"sku":"2206781","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/8056099007187_2a5c5fad_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728096073","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/warhorse-4","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
