This album is the first Paul Butterfield record after Mike Bloomfield left to start the Electric Flag. The mighty Elvin Bishop steps forward on lead guitar, and also features a young David Sanborn and the whole affair is a slight step sideways from the experimental nature of East West's title tune.
The 1968 edition of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band featured a larger ensemble, allowing for a jazzier feeling while retaining its Chicago blues core. They also adopted the psychedelic flower power stance of the era, as evidenced by a few selections, the rather oblique title, and the stunning pastiche art work on the cover. Butterfield himself was really coming into his own playing harmonica and singing, while his band of keyboardist Mark Naftalin, guitarist Elvin Bishop, drummer Phil Wilson, electric bassist Bugsy Maugh, was as cohesive a unit as you'd find in this time period. Butterfield's most well known song "One More Heartache" kicks off the album, a definitive blues-rock radio favorite with great harmonica and an infectious beat urged on by the top-notch spice. The band covers "Born Under a Bad Sign" at a time when Cream also did it — which one was better? "Driftin' & Driftin'" is another well known tune, and over nine minutes is stretched out with fine horns cryin' and sighin', including a definitive solo from Sanborn over the choruses. There's the blues wity a drivin' feel in "Double Trouble," and "Drivin' Wheel" ; Butterfield wrote two tunes, including "Run Out of Time" and the somewhat psychedelic "Tollin' Bells" where Bishop's guitar and Naftalin's slow ringing, resonant keyboard evokes a haunting sound. Likely this is the single best Butterfield album of this time period. The songs are great! And Butterfield's soul is heavy and deep.
