The 2nd of May is the second LP from British/Canadian trio May Blitz. It was released in 1971 following up their previous self-titled release. This was the first May Blitz album that wasn't self produced by the band. Instead, the band hired producer John Anthony. The album saw the band introducing elements of folk and space rock into their sound.

The follow-up May Blitz record does not have that smoked-out, echo-chamber feel, but it’s still interesting. Some of the tracks are upbeat, with a near proto-rap feel, but others are decent straight-ahead folk or just mellow rock - curiously reminiscent of another obscure Brit band, Hard Meat. You might as well pick this up if you see it next to the debut. TWO SENTENCE RE-REVIEW: I've pimped May Blitz out enough via word-of-mouth to warrant raising both albums rating a full point. The debut record alone is five careers' worth of mammoth rock groove listening gold.
