Stop
"Stop" never fails to get me, no matter how many listens. Same thing with "Albert's Shuffle", w/ or w/o horns. All in all, a brilliant album.

Listen to this album.
Seems like a lot of the people who bought this album bought it mostly because of Mike Bloomfield's half of it. And let me tell you, this is a great half. The instrumentation is nothing new, but the musicians play with this flare that is unique to this album. It's as if all of the players were...

Bloomfield, a perennial favorite for four decades
I grew up with this recording, as well as all the other original Bloomfield works (PBBB, Electric Flag). It's still a wonderful album, warts and all. I enjoy listening to it now as much as I did then, and it's been forty years, almost exactly. I still have a vinyl copy of it I bought new in 1968...

Awesome!

After 1-2 plays of each I found myself saying "I bought these because...?" Don't...

What's so super? This really seemed dated this time.
I remember when this album came out - my few guitar playing friends raved about it. Recently I was getting a Butterfield album and also picked this up. Not very impressed with it.

A great blues album
This is a great blues album that transcends it's recording date: it's sound is as fantastic and pertinant as if it had been recorded last week. I don't love every song which is why I rated it a "4" but it absolutely is a "must have" album for anyone interested in the blues or trying to develop...
