 Rating:  - Buddy Best AlbumBuddy Guy embraced many different styles and sounds throughout his career. His Gibson sound during his collaboration with Junior Wells is the one that appeals the most to me, and if you are into Buddy Guy stuff I am sure you will appreciate this album. A very energetic sound as the title of the album suggests, and it would really help you appreciate Buddy's roots from Chicago and Muddy Waters band all the way to his style today. In this album Buddy does not use overdrive as much and there aren't as many overbends as he uses these days. It's just pure, plain Chicago style blues that will give you the chills. A couple of words about Junior Wells. Besides being a very good hard (chromatic and diatonic) player, ...

Sound quality is excellent, set selection is a nice combination of slow and fast tunes and Buddy and Junior do a nice job sharing the lime light. Buddy does a nice job of tone it down for Junior while still providing plenty of heat. Great rap with the crowd as well. If you get a chance to see Buddy live, please make the effort to see one of the last great blues men. This is a great CD for people who love live blues. Rating:  - Definitely Smokin'!This album captures two of the best blues masters at their best in the mid-seventies. Blues was not on the radar during those years, but Buddy Guy and Junior Wells show how the blues was kept alive to an appreciative audience in Europe. (They even mention how they are not appreciated at home!) Since it was a live recording, the mix was not quite as balanced as I would have liked, since Terry Taylor and Pinetop Perkins play some tasty guitar and piano, respectively. But overall, the band cooks through an all-too-short set! A must-have, if for no other reason that it is a great representation of great blues in the mid-seventies. Rating: - Smokin' Indeed!What else can be said? Buddy and Junior at top form! A highlight is Buddy's heartfelt introduction to Ten Years Ago, thanking the European fans for making them feel more at home sometimes then they feel while on tour in the States. One thing very relavatory about this album for some people, would be finding out that Wyman is a truly excellent blues bassist,maybe as good as there has been... Rating: - These guys aren't kidding around.This is some serious blues people. Real American homegrown. Listen to "When you see tears"..Buddy Guy has lived this, and it pours out in this song..."I can't sleep at night because I'm nervous"....its so potent, its so honest, not some wanked out British imitation...not for casual listeners or kids... |
