I remember hearing this as a kid on early MTV and thinking it was pretty heavy for 1968. I remember a few years later tripping out when I saw they had been signed and released an album under Megaforce

Proto-metal is a very old and common term, it's just a way of conveniently grouping together a whole load of pioneer and early bands.

Nearly all these bands that are being mentioned, I covered in the first dozen or so pages of my main journal, which seems like years ago now.

Definitely "The Stooges" and "In Rock". Deep Purple had on of the most pissed off sound I've ever heard.

Actually, I take my original statement back. I think heavy psych had influence on metal. In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly was a 68 album, so I'd say tey were setting the ground work for the sound before Zeppelin.

Dude, you started that journal in September of 2012. It has been years.

After blues rock, psychedelic rock is the second biggest influence on metal.
