ALL THE HURT YOU DO ME

WOMAN YOU JUST FOOL ME

DO YOU REALLY WANT ME DOWN ?

 IRISH COFFEE

officially started in 1970,

 originating from

 another band called

 "The VOODOOS". 

In the beginning they played 

only covers from 

British & American bands,

 such as 

DEEP PURPLE, 

LED ZEPPELIN,

 The WHO,

 The KINKS etc...

This band from Belgium,

 is killer hardrock

 with searing leads 

and really strong vocals, 

well composed songs. 

Irish Coffee 

played unremarkable

 bluesy hard rock 

on this rare 1971 LP.

Originated from 

another band called

"The Voodoos".

 This heavy band made

 the region of Aalst unsafe 

in the early sixties 

with American rock'n'roll. 

They also played covers of 

Cliff Richard & The Shadows,

 later on also covers of

 The Beatles

 and

 The Rolling Stones". 

Member

 Dirk Dierickx recalls 

"the foreign offering were so good 

at that time we hardly

 ever thought of 

writing our own stuff".

After

 "The Voodoos", 

only to form 

Irish Coffee

 in 1970
