However it seems Peel never played any of the band's later material. On 12 October 1999, he commented: \"People of course argue and will do for the rest of recorded time about which was the first rock LP, but those of us who were around at the time know it was Blue Cheer's 'Vincebus Eruptum'\" On 03 November 1999 he selected Blue Cheer's track \"Summertime Blues\" as one of his picks for the Peelenium 1967. He also stated that he thought Blue Cheer were the first-ever heavy metal band on 31 July 2003, \"regardless of whatever anyone else tells you.\""@en . "Jerry Whiting"@gl . "Paul Whaley"@gl . . "Blue Cheer was an American rock band that initially performed and recorded in the late 1960s and early 1970s and was sporadically active until 2009. Based in San Francisco, Blue Cheer played in a psychedelic blues rock style, and are also credited as being some of the earliest pioneers of heavy metal, with their cover of \"Summertime Blues\" sometimes cited as the first in the genre. They have also been noted as influential in the development of genres as disparate as punk rock, stoner rock, doom metal, experimental rock, and grunge. The group's lineup has changed throughout the years, but in 1970 the group had four members."@en . "Nick St. Nicholas"@gl . "Terry Rae"@gl . . "Gary Lee Yoder"@en . . "Jerre Peterson"@gl .
