5.0 out of 5 stars Best Of The Best, Right Here!, January 1, 2005

This 1968 Vanguard LP is perhaps one of the best blues harp albums to be recorded in the late 60's. I first bought a near mint original vinyl pressing of Coming At You years ago and recently found that Vanguard reissued it on CD. I listen to this on a regular basis and can't get enough. Meant to be played at high volume, Junior's awesome vocals & wailing harp with a solid rhythm section here comes at you with "heart, mind & ears". You can feel the blues as if you're going through it with Junior. Buddy Guy's guitar licks are inventive as usual and really shine, but the strat does sound a little thin and should have had some gain and reverb put through. Not over-produced, the album has that nice raw 60's sound. EVERY SONG is worth the price of admission here especially, "Mystery Train", "Five Long Years", "Little By Little", "Tobacco Road", "You Don't Love Me, Baby" + a fine treatment of the standard blues tune "Hoochie Coochie Man". Highly recommended if you have not already heard this.

This album is a bit more diffuse - thanks especially to the horns - than the legendary and ever-so-tight Hoodoo Man Blues but it is still delicious. Especially wonderful - "So Sad This Morning," "Little By Little," ... I better stop now or I'll list all the tracks. "When My Baby Left Me" rocks mightily.

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome album..., September 24, 2011
