Canned Heat's "Time Was" hit shelves in late February or early March of 1969 and climbed to #67 on the Hot 100 — modest by chart standards, but enough to make it one of the band's most enduring songs nearly sixty years on.

Tucked away in Canned Heat's catalog is what might be the band's most quietly devastating song: "Poor Moon." While 1969 was busy churning out space-age wonder, guitarist Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson — the group's resident conservationist, decades before that was a compliment — used it to strike a very different chord. His worry was never whether we'd reach the moon; it was what we'd do to it once we got there. The same greed, waste, and short-term thinking already gnawing at the Earth, exported to a second target. It wasn't abstract, either — chatter at the time about the government treating the lunar surface as a nuclear dumping ground gave the song its teeth. Nearly six decades later, that dread hasn't aged a day. Makes you wonder what the Blind Owl would've made of a rocket-launching billionaire scattering satellites across the sky in the name of progress.

Southpaw is the sole album from North Carolina rock band Dryewater, released in 1974 on the private J.T.B. label. As well-known reviewers such as those quoted above have already plentifully described, the LP is a full-blooded serving of Southern hard rock that ranks among the best of its style.
