 Rating: - Mick Taylor's exquisite guitar solo I am going to confine my comments to just one song on this album because it alone justifies the purchase, many times over. In "Marriage Madness", Mick Taylor plays what is perhaps the most exquisite piece of blues guitar that I have ever heard. The guitar work shows great touch throughout, perfectly complementing John Mayall's distinctive and apt vocals. "Subtle", "fluid" and "sublime" are words that spring to mind even before the agonisingly beautiful guitar solo ...

The album contained the finest selection of musicians to be collected under one roof. Mick Taylor is in exceptional form especially on "Marriage Madness". This session was almost like a continuation for Taylor from his previous gem of a recording with Mayall (i.e. "Crusade") Sugarcane Harris's electric violin added a truly cutting edge to the whole session. Eric Clapton plays on several tracks. Listen to "Unanswered Questions". I ...
