4.0 out of 5 stars Unearth a gem from 1975, January 8, 2008

By	Pans Labyrinth - See all my reviews

The Edgar Winter Group with Rick Derringer...now there's a title for the ages. If anyone knows their Winter History, Rick Derringer helped write, produce, and play on many of (Johnny and Edgar) Winter albums of the early - to - mid 70's. But back to this album, this is just a fun, party rock record. You know it's a party if Derringer is listed on the album...Johnny Winter played the blues, Edgar played the jazz, and when Derringer worked with each brother seperately (and together, on Johnny and Edgar Winter Live 'Together') he brought in the rock (and party). I wouldn't call this album as essential or a masterpiece, but any fan of mid 70's rock, or of Edgar, Johnny, or Rick should definitely pick up. This is a no frills release.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not One of Their Better Efforts, March 7, 2009

By	Pat Lamorgese "costellofanpat" (New Jersey) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a long time Edgar Winter fan, this was one of the few missing from my collection. Edgar's a multi intrumental star with a wonderful voice, who wails on sax, keys and assorted percussion. Chuck Ruff was a steady drummer, and Dan Hartman and Rick Derringer share bass, guitar, synthesizer roles on this. However, althought the supporting cast is pretty much the same as the previous releases ("They Only Come Out at Night" and "Shock Treatment") minus Ronnie Montrose on guitar who had left to form his own band, there is little from a songwriting perspective that is memorable. Take three great singers who are multi-instrumental stars and usually the outcome is more memorable. I recommend the earlier Edgar releases for a new listener.
