Superb album.
Varies between Cohenesque ballads and Cramps-like Punkabilly, and covers most bases in between.
Cave doesn't always do it for me, but at his best he's phenomenal...
That's a fantastic album Tiggi. Have you heard 'Henry's Dream' album from a few years before? It's even better. Love Nick Cave's music.
Been listening to this album non-stop for about a month after seeing Ten Years After playing 'Goin Home' @ Woodstock on youtube. Alvin Lee's solo material is outstanding. Sounds great live too, would love to see him sometime.

Consists of mostly solo material from his 'Nineteen Ninety Four' album which was his latest at the time plus fantastic covers of 'I Hear You Knockin', 'Johnny B Goode' and most impressively Sonny Boy Wiliamson's 'Good Morning Little Schoolgirl'. His version is the best cover version I've ever heard so far.
Currently considering this album for my upcoming review. If you're into the blues then you'll like this one! (Tiggi- you might want to add it to your 'live blues albums' list.)
