Hope You Like It – Geordie – LP – Brand New Vinyl (Arrives in 20days)

Geordie’s 1973 debut, ‘HOPE YOU LIKE IT,’ captures the unfiltered, working-class spirit of British rock before it was polished by stardom. Led by the unmistakable vocals of Brian Johnson (before his AC/DC fame), the album fuses gritty guitar riffs with anthemic choruses, embodying the sound of Newcastle’s industrial landscape. Tracks like ‘Don’t Do That’ and the title cut bristle with swagger and punch, offering a fresh alternative to the era’s glam and prog excesses. What sets this record apart is its directness—no frills, no excessive studio gloss, just honest rock and roll played with conviction. The album stands as a snapshot of a transitional moment in UK rock, bridging the gap between late-60s blues-rock and the harder edge that would define the late ’70s. For collectors, this is more than a curiosity; it’s a chance to hear a future icon forging his identity and a band at their most vital. A must-have for anyone looking to expand their understanding of the roots of classic hard rock.
