A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth.
Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded at the Fillmore East this time and featuring ...

The '60s Blues Revival begins here. Calling this album influential is an understatement akin to calling the Grand Canyon a rut; suffice to say that an entire generation of musicians (mostly young and white) heard this and had their lives changed forever. In fact, for at least a year after the album's release ...

This album has been a constant joy since 1973. I have vinyl in great condition and vinyl converted to FLAC. I also have this import but I prefer the vinyl. The CD seems slightly bass heavy.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Timeless, at least for me
This is one of those albums that upon hearing it brings me to my own place.
There are many songs that touch your inner spirit, but entire albums?
I've been to listening this album for almost 10 years now, and I'm only 30 years old (it is now 2004), Doing the math you will see this is not just a nostalgia record for those growing up in 1974.
It is one of those albums that are so pure that once you hear it it becomes your own.
It grabs you in the gut and brings you to peace (or it doesn't, I guess it depends on the person)
Anyways, I love this album and everything about it, even the cover.
Thank you Mylon and Alvin for brining in a major part of my life soundtrack to me.

I've been searching for this CD for around 10 years now. My album from 73 is old and scratched so it will be nice to hear all these great songs again. I remember when I first heard he album I didn't care for it all that much as I was use to a harder rocking Alvin Lee. But in time the album took on a life of its own and became one of my favorites. My friends would listen to it and want a copy of their own. Now I know hat to buy all those old geezers who were rocking to this back in the 70's.It brings back some great memories!
