The Nazz (album)

(Redirected from Nazz (album))

Nazz is the 1968 (see 1968 in music) debut album by American psychedelic rockers The Nazz. While The Nazz never became mainstream rock stars, they did achieve a measure of cult popularity among some listeners, especially future glam rockers and power pop bands like David Bowie and Big Star, in whom The Nazz's hard psychedelic influences can be heard.

Nazz peaked at #118 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart, while single "Hello It's Me" peaked at #66 on the Pop Singles chart.
