Pacific Gas & Electric - Get It On (1968 Full Album + Bonus)

 

The band was formed in Los Angeles, California, United States, in 1967, by guitarist Tom Marshall, bassist Brent Block, lead guitarist Glenn Schwartz (formerly of The James Gang) and drummer Charlie Allen, who had previously played in the band Bluesberry Jam.^[5] When it became clear that Allen was the best singer in the new group, he became the front man, and Frank Cook, previously of Canned Heat, came into the band on drums.^[5]

Originally known as the Pacific Gas and Electric Blues Band, they shortened their name when they signed to Kent Records, releasing the album Get It On in early 1968.^[5] The record was not a success, but following the band's performance at the Miami Pop Festival in December 1968,^[5] they were signed by Columbia Records.^[6][7]

Their first album for Columbia, Pacific Gas and Electric, was issued in 1969, but they achieved greater success with their next album, Are You Ready, in 1970.^[5] The title track "Are You Ready?" reached No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.^[8]
