Blistering Blues Rock Renditions Of John Mayall Classics
05/01/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)
"This is an outstanding John Mayall album recorded in the mid 80's featuring one of his strongest dual guitar line ups: Walter Trout & Coco Montoya. This was his lineup for 6 years that played at small clubs all over (which I was lucky to see numerous times) and reestablished interest in the blues. Many of the numbers are from his two best albums: Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton and The Turning Point. Two of the better guitar solos are Walter on "Rolling With The Blues" and Coco playing the classic slow piece "Have You Heard", the 1st Mayall tune I every heard. The finale, "Steppin' Out", features them both trading blistering licks and is a great finish to an excellent album. This is possibly the rockin'ist lineup he ever had and is must for serious John Mayall and blues fans!"
Classic Mayall and Friends

"This is a great album. I have 24 Mayall albums of which the best is 'Life in the Jungle'. This album contains many of the tracks on 'Life' and shows the abilities of Mayall, Montoya and Trout but lacks the same recording clarity. However, it is a recording you must have if you are any kind of Mayall, Montoya or Trout fan."
An awesome live recording....

"I ave been a John Mayall fan since the late 60's in Germania and follwoed his work ever since. This album is great - I love it. He is the still the Blues Man that I knew back then. He has stuck to his values - unlike some others - and he is still the greatest white blues musician in my book."
