The blues, the whole blues and nothing but the blues, can there be anything else? Heck no.

To say it as it is, after experiencing PBPB, u became a man!!! :) yes I was 15 1st time I hear em, and put bubble gum music away!!! What a band, and The Electric Flag blew us away, also, soom years later. Play this to ur son's!!! :D

This is great. Don't think I've ever seen Butter and Bloom together on vid. Too bad about the sound but it's great to have this. . .1st Butterfield album blew me away, just a kid from the suburbs who couldn't imagine what the south side of Chicago could possibly be like. These men turned me on to the greatest artists I've ever heard. . .namely, Muddy, Jimmy Reed, Sonny Boy et al. .20,000 stars for this band

@Rabidburt blew me away too, and it got me into playing the harp, and been playing ever since, some 35 years now!!!
