Genre: Blues
Places I remember: Marbeck's Records (Queen's Arcade, Auckland)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Room To Move
Gear costume: The Laws Must Change
Active compensatory factors: Everything is cool about this record: the cover (designed by Mayall), the live venue (the Fillmore East), the year it came out, the songs, the quiet-is-the-new-loud style, and the musicians.
Everything reeks of cool.
John Mayall is caught live, being the gigantic blues mentor figure that he will always be remembered as being.
Highlights are everywhere. And it's a single album. That means a maximum hit rate.
Where do they all belong? The album is unique in the huge Mayall discography.
