This prototypical threesome helped develop blues based rock into what is known to have been the beginnings of Acid Rock and what we call today as Heavy Metal. They were America’s answer to the British hard rock invasion that was going on at the time. The seminal group formed in San Francisco in1967 by Richard "Dickie" Peterson on bass & vocals, Leigh Stephens on guitar & vocals, and Paul Whaley on the drums. What is Blue Cheer you ask? Blue Cheer is what was referred to in the 60s as a power trio. When I took the assignment to cover Blue Cheer’s performance, I knew that I couldn’t turn in a proper review without including some history on these hard rocking trail blazers and their legacy. When Sugarbuzz Magazine heard that Blue Cheer would be performing at the Key Club, we knew that we definitely had to cover the Sunset Strip return of the group that made their place in rock history as being the loudest rock n roll band in the world.
