1.0 out of 5 stars Not Badger--It's Jackie Lomax!, February 27, 2005

I was anxious to hear this album knowing the kind of music on "One Live Badger" to be progressive and inspired. What I found instead was a Jackie Lomax solo album with all traces of Badger's previous sound excised. Now if you are a die hard Jackie Lomax fan, this album is probably for you. Jackie has made good music in the past as his Apple output shows...but this stuff is slick white R&B with lots of horns and girl singers to boot. It's not the progressive rock Badger at all...it's a funked up Jackie Lomax R&B fest in disguise.

1.0 out of 5 stars Perhaps the Most Wretched Music I've Ever Heard, May 15, 2003

If you liked the energy and freewheeling jams that characterized "One Live Badger," the initial offering from this group, under no circumstances should you acquire "White Lady," an effort that takes the notion of a sophomore slump to new depths. I'll never forget how much I anticipated hearing this recording back in the `70s nor the profound shock at hearing the tepid, boring dreck that blared from my speakers. What could have happened?

With founding guitarist Brian Parrish and bassist Dave Foster gone, a slew of folks showed up to contribute to this effort. Don't be impressed by the line-up despite seeing Jeff Beck, Kim Gardner, and producer Allen Toussaint in the fold. This whole effort was hijacked by Jackie Lomax, and under his control the band issued this collection of wilted, languid collection of white soul tunes. Tony Kaye, the force behind "One Live Badger," is little more than a session musician here.

Maybe it was the heat and humidity from recording in New Orleans. Whatever it was, you do not want to hear the results. And to tell the truth, I guess I knew at some level that the band was in trouble as soon as I saw the album cover.

If you think about all the great music that has never made it to CD, such as several recordings by Streetwalkers, then you have to wonder why this one did. Spare yourself this horror. Please trust me.
