2007-09-28
Very good. This is an intimate and creative look into two of blues-rock-soul's very best. A must for any collection of this period.

Good Companion 2007-08-09
A good companon for their other live album. Johny Winter was superb and rivalled Blomfield.
Can listen to some cuts over and over... 2007-07-18
This is a must have CD for Bloomfield/Kooper fans. I was a little disappointed by some of the seemingly out of place tunes (feeling groovy? Season of the witch?) but the guitar work is killer and its live and crisp.
'One Way Out' kicks things off with ferocious guitar work. *****
'Intro to Johnny Winter'... historical *****
'Its my own fault' Excellent *****
'Please tell me partner. Bluesy, slow, 10 minute jam. Bloomfield showing the limitations of his vocals but still a vintage and electrifying piece of guitar work. Wamba-jamba. *****
'Thats all Right'. Thats alright mama. *****
'Together till the end of time'. Very dated. They should have replaced this with another Johnny Winter cut. Slow, melodramatic, romantic? Nausea. **
'Don't throw your love on me so strong' Yet another fantastic bluesy hard driving guitar tune albeit suffering only from Mike's vocal limitations. But man can he play guitar.
I'd keep 5 of 10 songs for a personal custom cd...

caricias de guitarra que todavia lastiman la indiferencia..... 2006-11-07
testimonio unico de una noche en donde la guitarra de bloomfield justifica la leyenda del gran guitarrista blanco....... todo lo demas no cuenta...creeme, el sonido de esa guitarra es unico, te persigue donde vayas..no importa la banda, el baterista que se pierde, los vocales que no lucen, algunos temas flojos...no importa, la guitarra esta ahi, tejiendo aullidos en el aire de esa noche que magicamente esta a nuestra disposicion a traves de esta edicion imperdible.
Bloomfield's finest moments 2006-11-06
Michael Bloomfield is perhaps, next to Johnny Winter, the greatest white blues guitarist ever. This CD showcases his ability to play and shake notes like no other could. I have listened to blues for over 35 years, but when I heard this CD, I said "Wow, this is incredible" This Cd will not disappoint anyone, it reflects Michael Bloomfield at his best!
Kinda like driving an Aston Martin with a flat tire!

The "drummer" (more like "The Anti-Drummer") on this is Johnny Cresci. He is maddeningly lacking in even basic garage band ability, and literally has no idea what a 6/8 blues meter is. How he landed on the same stage with these legends may be the musical mystery of all time. For me, Mr. "Clueless" Cresci makes it nearly impossible to enjoy the brilliant performances going on despite his anti-rhythmic upchucking.....kinda like driving an Aston Martin with a flat tire! I have tried to get beyond Cresci's chops for over a year of listening now, and I simply can't do it. If you're a musician, his playing will make you extremely agitated. I'm gonna have to trade this in, and go on listening to Live Adventures like I have for the past 37 years. This would have been much better with the drum tracks totally muted on the 6/8 numbers.
Granted, this is an historically significant release, but I think it should have stayed in the vault, or released with Johnny Cresci having been digitally removed or replaced.
5stars for everyone except the Drummer .

I agree with all the other reviewers .. nice quality recording for its time considering it was in the vaults for decades ..great playing from all concerned(except the cursed Drummer) , I cannot imagine what poor Jerry Gemmot went through with THAT DRUMMER .. he should have been dismissed immediately ..or shot ..it would have sounded better without him .. Gawd' awful .. spoils the whole dang thing .. any way .. I cannot listen to this anymore without getting uncomfortable , so it's back to Soul Of A Man , Re-Kooperation , Live Adventures , Super Session , and Kooper Sessions with Shuggie .
