Reasonably interesting collection of non-LP singles from 1964 to 1968, featuring almost all of the notable musicians that passed through
the Bluesbreakers
throughout the decade.
"Sitting in the Rain"
(with
Peter Green
) showcases fine fingerpicking, the haunting "Jenny" is one of
Mayall
's best originals, and "Stormy Monday" is one of the few cuts from 1966 that briefly featured both
Eric Clapton
and
Jack Bruce
. The rest is largely passably pleasant... ~ Richie Unterberger
