Well, what can I say? The track listing says it all! John Mayall, Hipster Image, The Birds.... absolutely stunning. Any fan of 60's R&B will love this compilation, which features some pricey and/or rare records. It's absolutely brilliant, a must buy album for mods.

I was very fortunate to have seen Rory live during his heyday and (as another reviewer has stated) I often felt he was far better live than in the studio and this album demonstrates that brilliance.
This album is worth the price for the brilliant "Walk on hot coals" alone, great song and what a fantastic guitar solo ! If you love full throttle blues, then get this album. >>More Details |

This is just amazing Zep tunes and blues covers.played brilliantly and sung like only Chris can ,he does fit in very very well Page joined the Crows and we are so lucky it was recorded A BREATH of fresh air blowin through the ZEP material!!! Also being on stage with a group like this must take the pressure of Jimmy and he can then relax and just play. Im sure Page and maybe J P Jones will get a group like this and tour the world. Me I can not wait!!

I guess the first thing that struck me was the overall look of the album; a cover containing simple shapes surrounding Jack and Meg (Meg looks about 13) and a Dutch name. De Stijl. That's alienating an audience straight away really...having a name people will be unable to pronounce. So flipping through the sleeve I find some interesting ideas and quotations about this weird shapely art they've used for the cover...the artists involved are Paul Overy, Gerrit Rietveld, Theo Van Deosburg and Vilmos Huszar...for all you Google kids. Jack likes to leave a little note in his album sleeves and this one ends with:
"Even if the goal of achieving beauty from simplicity is aesthetically less exciting, it may force the mind to acknowledge the simple components ... Read More: >>More Details |

Surely this dismal jam session was the blueprint for Spinal Tap. Its of its time, over-indulgent and plain silly. I just cannot hear any trace of musicianship in it, and it sounds as if it was recorded at Regent Sound.
YUK! >>More Details |

I have the first 6 or 7 albums (on vinyl) by Robert Cray and I believe this is the one to buy first. Possibly the best known songs are the title track and 'Smoking Gun' but really they're all great, especially the first five tracks. He can definitely play but it's the singing and the song writing which come to the fore.
Well worth buying for soul and blues fans alike. >>More Details |

How to describe this much-praised album? You could say that it captures the UK's best pub band at the height of their powers. You could say that it's stripped down R&B from a time when the term still meant something. You could say that it laid the foundations for the punk explosion that was just around the corner, although there are quite a few claimants to that title. The fact remains that without the visual appeal of the band's performance, with Wilco stalking around the stage like... a mad axe-man? ... the music is just a little bit too dull and predictable to be really great. Although I suppose you do have to admire the sheer damn cheek of the one-note guitar solo on "I'm a hog for you baby". Best enjoyed with beer.

I Have never felt the need to write a review before but that Robsome & Jerome comment, It has got to be a joke, hasen't it, very surreal, certainly made me laugh out loud! Anyway I have had this collection for quite a few years now, and it's outstanding of course, as anyone with more than a passing interest in the blues already knows, (cost a lot more when I first bought it) but I was just wondering if this is a remastered version, does anyone out there know? I might just have to buy another copy, at this bargan price for an important piece of musical history, why not?

As I write this review I read an email which said Bo Diddley had passed away after a long illness.
With only 2 Top 40 entries in the U K Diddley sold less than Chuck Berry but was just as influential. He's probably a household name by now and certainly was at the time of the Stones and Yardbirds.And not forgetting the Pretty Things whose name came from a Bo song. Essential though to Bo Diddley achieving any sort of fame were whites-that is even before the Stones there was Buddy Holly. His music remained in the same turf-there was no attempts to launch himself as a soul singer. The music's always going to be there >>More Details |
