Album Notes & Community Reviews

A highly anticipated, albeit brief, reunion of the seminal American blues-rock ensemble featuring Mike Bloomfield and Buddy Miles. While boasting undeniably impressive musical pedigree and flashes of brilliant guitar work, the album struggled to recapture the cohesive magic of their 1960s prime.
