THE BLUES ALBUM!
I have loved this record since the first time I listened to it oh so many years ago. This is, in my opinion, the best blues record ever recorded and that's saying alot. All of the songs hit the bullseye. "Driftin' and Driftin'", "Born Under A Bad Sign", "Tollin' Bells", and all of the rest...

'Pigboy' is the killer Butterfield Album
From Kim Whitesides colourful images to the blistering music inside this cd. This is the best of the Butterfield band during that tumultous period between its 'start' in 1965 to the late 1967 period. This album cooks with driving tunes such as 'Drivin Wheel', 'Driftin' and Driftin' and Born...

YOU'RE BUYING THE WRONG CD!
Yes, this is the great PBBB's 3rd album, but it's not the CD you should be buying.This domestic CD was released in 1989 and has never been remastered. The import 2CD version of this title (backed with the PBBB's 4th "In My Own Dream") is the one to get. It was remastered in 2004.Ditto for "The...

Outstanding!!!
This is my favorite Butterfield album. I do love East-West and the debut album too, but it can't get any better then this. The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw is blues full of soul. Elvin Bishop shines with his spare, "Claptonish", blues playing. Butterfield sings better then he ever done on any...

I love this album!
Paul Butterfield has more edge on this album then any I've ever heard. I can't say how many times I've listened to it! I love the first album with Mike Bloomfield on it (I'm a big Bloomfield fan also), but as far as vocals go, this album is it!

Butterfield's Best: Pigboy Crabshaw Lives!
The Resurrection Of Pigboy Crabshaw proves to be Butter's finest collaborative work. Incorporating a horn section which includes the likes of David Sanborn, Paul Butterfield creates a type of blues music that is seasoned with just enough R&B to really make the music swing. Easing out guitarist...

A big disappointment
If you loved "East West" and are looking for some more great Butterfield music, you should probably stay far away from this CD. The excitement and enthusiasm and power of that seminal recording is completely lost in Pigboy, and the album just doesn't have much going for it.
