Blues Boom classic January 17, 2008
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I bought this on vinyl (twice! I wore one out) and on CD (albeit in original format without the 2 extra tracks). This album ranks with the Beano one as a 60s classic: Mick Taylor is brilliant (and still only 20 years old - downhill from now on....) and the whole thing is a masterpiece of ensemble playing. I find myself coming back to it regularly, nearly 40 years on.
One friend described it as a perfect record for making love - rumbustious start, mood switches through the middle, and a drawn-out langourous ending. Never tried it, but I can see where he was coming from.
More essential British Blues! October 29, 2007

Another brilliant re-release from John Mayall, with some extra tracks, which have been available before. This was the last electric guitar based album he made, before moving to an acoustic format. Once again, superb musicianship and good songs produced an album which must be in the collection of all British blues fans. Guitarist Mick Taylor was given plenty of room to stretch out on this one, and he proved his huge talent, which unfortunately was rather wasted when he subsequently joined the Rolling Stones!
