"Bloodrock U.S.A." is the fourth album by the Texan rock band Bloodrock, released in October 1971 under Capitol Records. This album marked a significant shift for the band as it was their first self-produced work, produced without Terry Knight. It also served as the final studio album to feature original members Jim Rutledge on vocals and Lee Pickens on lead guitar.
The album represents a blend of hard rock and psychedelic influences typical of the era, showcasing the band's evolving musical style and experimentation. Despite the changes within the band, "Bloodrock U.S.A." contributed to their reputation in the rock scene of the early 1970s, though it didn't achieve the commercial success of their earlier works. The album remains notable as a transition point for Bloodrock, setting the stage for subsequent changes in their lineup and musical direction.
