Summary: Great then, Great now!!
Comment: It was great when I bought it as a 2 vinyl set back in the late 60's and great when I caught up with it as a 2 CD set a few years back. I still have both and love to play the vinyl and the CD. Shame that some of the potheads are finally waking up and breathing fresh air and complaining. I have not been to a concert where there has been perfection.... and, all the better for it!!

Summary: What exciting adventures!
Comment: Recorded over three nights in 1968, this is one of those great rock 'n' roll jam albums. The relationship between Kooper and Bloomfield is intuitive and symbiotic- the two of them know how to share a song, playing with and off of one another with finesse and warmth. It's wonderful to hear them tossing ideas back and forth- one of the album's coolest moments occurs during a cover of "Dear Mr. Fantasy," when, during the instrumental break, Kooper plays a quote from "Hey Jude," and Bloomfield echoes it during his solo. It's a pretty good indicator of the loose, playful feel that permeates this album. Of course, it doesn't hurt that these are two of the best players in the business, capable of melding blues and jazz into an expertly crafted rock 'n' roll framework. They also know how to jam, settling into loose grooves and letting loose with the best that they got. As a result, we get to hear Bloomfield's stinging lead guitar erupting beautifully over Kooper's lush organ constructions. It's not exactly earth-shattering, but it's still a wonderful listen. Perhaps it does occasionally slip into overindulgence (such as on the cover of Sonny Boy Williamson's "No More Lonely Nights," which features guitarist Elvin Bishop substituting for a temporarily absent Bloomfield. He isn't bad, but the song ambles its way past the twelve-minute mark without much in the way of innovative or inspiring playing. Still, it's got some great eruptions from Kooper), and it does start to lose a bit of energy towards the end, but it's still a great listen for any fan of blues or jam oriented rock.

Summary: SONNY BOY AIN'T DEAD NO MO
Comment: I was introduced to this LP in high school 35 years ago and to find it on CD after all these years is a real thrill!
No high school dance I attended was complete until we heard "Sonny Boy... Is Dead And Gone." And yes, we DID dance to it.
If you were at SMH in those days you know what I mean.
All hail Al and Mike! I feel like a kid again!

Summary: ...too bad!
Comment: Bought this album when it came out and was blown away by it...epecially "That's Allright Mama" and "Green Onions". I was seventeen. I thoght it was good but I also thight that there would be better music of this level to come as I got older. It's been nearly 40 years since and there hasn't...too bad!

Summary: A milestone album!
Comment: From the first time I listened this album in those vinyl days, I had the presentiment we were in front a towering album. One of those successful accidents far from being planned, and conceived simply as a happy musical encounter supported by two outstanding musicians of the height of Al Kooper and Mike Bloomfield.
Those inspired performers were giving the best of themselves playing what to my mind constituted the best Blues Album ever written in the last sixties and one of the most remarkable in any age. In those ages, San Francisco was a true energy explosion in constant innovation and creative frenzy, one jump ahead any other city in which Rhythm and Blues concerns.
This version of The weight is one of the standards that has nothing to envy to The Band 's Original performance. It so great the transcendence of this golden piece that by itself constituted in a holy hymn of an untamed generation and a real evidence about the creativity and musical talent that surrounded us. Notice this song (in other version) was part of the Soundtrack of Easy Rider (a mere casualty perhaps?).
Mary Ann is a groovy theme. But if you asked me about the best track I should say: Dear Mr. Fantasy. But I must insist : there is no minor track. Each them possesses its own charm; those songs were the final result of the sum of the genius, no more nor less
This is an immortal album, that will endure as a true sonorous gem, a real example of what the musical happenings meant in the "hippie era" , with the fabulous organ solos of Kooper, in search of have a good time and get some fun through the music that shook the world.
Those enraptured sessions at Bill Graham's Filmore Auditorium, San Francisco, September 26, 27, 28 1968 a fundamental chapter of the musical history was being played.
Absolutely recommended.
