This is a magic album featuring the best of 60s blues. The album is dominated by John Mayall and Eric Clapton, but features some great songs by early bluesmen: Otis Spann, Champion Jack Dupree and Curtis Jones. Long night features 'Steve Anglo' who is actually Steve Winwood with a disguised name due to contract obligations. The Peter Green track is also memorable. Additional session musicians include John McVie, Keef Hartley, and Aynsley Dunbar, among others. The solo by John Mayall, 'Burn out your blind eyes' highlights how good John Mayall was (and is) in his own right. Clapton features on several tracks, playing in a style which is reminiscent of early 30s guitar, raw and vivid. An album not to be missed by any early blues/rock fan.
