The Flow (6)

1970s heavy psych trio from Brooklyn, New York City (USA) with one sole album, self-released in 1972, only 100 copies pressed.
Formed as a 4-piece in Brooklyn, Drunken Dog lived and rehearsed in a loft in Lower Manhattan before evolving into The Flow, a trio who comprised Pete Fine (guitars, vocals, synthesizer), Monte Farber (bass, vocals) and Steve Starer (drums). By early 1972, the group had sufficient Fine/Barber compostions to justify the recording of an album , which took place in their loft on a Teac 4-track tape machine. An engineer then mixed the tracks at a professional recording studio, but although they had recorded enough material for a full-lenght album, the band couldn't afford to pay for the entire set to be mixed. Therefore they decided to press a one-side album roughly in a hundred copies, but many were lost or thrown away when Fine moved to Tucson in 1974. "The Flow's Greatest Hits" subsequently became a major collectable.
