CD Reviews

A great, great band
T. Mitchell | Penns Park, PA | 03/14/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I was fortunate to see CBB a couple of times in the early '70s. I maintain to this day that Peter Haycock is one of the finest (and most overlooked) blues guitarists in the world. As far as 'A Lot of Bottle', well, this is my favorite CBB album followed closely by 'Tightly Knit'. (By the way, this album was simply called 'Climax Blues Band' when I was wearing the record out in college, circa 1972. It had a brown cover with an old man playing a high-hat.)



There are several bonus tracks ('Morning, Noon, and Night', 'Long Lovin Man', and 'Loving Machine') which are okay but don't really add much, in my opinion. One big problem: one of the best songs on the album was omitted from the CD. 'Like Uncle Charlie' was left off the CD, but guess what? - - the song does turn up on the 'Rich Man' CD as a bonus track! Odd....



More to the point, 'A Lot of Bottle' is absolutely great (even without 'Like Uncle Charlie') and I recommend it in the highest terms possible. Modern blues at its very best. You will savor this one."
It changed my life.

"Quite possibly the greatest album of all time. I'm sorry but 5 stars is just not enough for this goldmine of ground-breaking sonic oomph. Loud distortion lathered guitars, at least 15 years ahead of thier time, blend with simple, yet perfectly written and executed vocals. After listening to this album for fifteen years it still never fails to blow my freakin mind with its excellence."
It's a Sad World We live in!

"The Climax Blues Band were Truely, Without a Doubt, one of THE MOST OVER-LOOKED and UNDER-RATED Bands of SEVENTIES!!!..( and EIGHTIES, for that matter!) They were ahead of their Time! Positive BLUES! It's a Sad World when "the Media" focuses SO MUCH Attention on a "Rich Bitch" like that Hilton Skank!"
