Music that stay true in some way to the original blues, unlike many others at the time, trying to mix blues with rock. There's no heaviness or virtouso-playing, just real and pure blues (even though it's electric... Depends on what you compare with). There is also variation in different blues-types here and also many own new ideas that was to inspire many bluesartists to follow. The album reached nr. 8  on the Britsh charts, which today sounds incredible. Once there was a good time for the blues!

On the previous album the later to become world famous Eric Clapton played guitar in the band but left to form Cream. The band at this time featured only to-become well known musicians, for example John McVie and Peter Green in Fleetwood Mac and Ansley Dunbar in UFO, Frank Zappa, Lou Reed and many more bands.

This is a partly superb album, from one of the top bluesacts of the time, and after...
