Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking the first studio release following the tragic death of founding member Alan Wilson, this resilience-driven album introduces a revamped lineup of the venerated blues-rock institution. The addition of vocalist Bob Hite's brother and guitarist Joel Scott Hill maintained the band's signature, heavy boogie-woogie propulsion despite the significant internal upheaval.
