4.0 out of 5 stars Really loud white-boy blues!, November 22, 1998

By 

Dick Destiny ([e-mail]) (southern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Tightly Knit (Audio CD)

Not only do you disclose your age when confessing to liking "Tightly Knit," you're making a statement. You see, it's become so politically incorrect to admit to being a fan of heavy, early-Seventies British white-boy blues, it's almost worse than declaring you admire those who pick their noses on TV. So, dare to be a boor. You'll enjoy this CBB recording if you appreciate the band's sound when it was more guitar heavy than sax funk and jazz anarchy. "Tightly Knit" is man's music. So don't tell the wife you ordered this. Hide it when it arrives in a brown paper wrapper. And make sure she's outta the room when you play "Shoot Her If She Runs" and the nine minutes of "St. Michael's Blues" -- really loud crunching guitar and a singer bellerin' in pain over his lady whose been lettin' another man raid his box of "special colored socks" in the bedroom. --Dick Destiny

This is CBB's best work. St. Michael's Blues is one of my favorite blues songs of all time. This is one diverse group. They dont make 'em like CBB anymore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably their best album, October 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Tightly Knit (Audio CD)

Older albums are often better, since it is much harder for an unknown new group to be noticed.

The fact that Tightly Knit has been re-released says it all.
