AHEAD OF THEIR TIME
I SAW THESE GUYS 41 YEARS AGO WHEN I TURNED FOURTEEN. THEY WERE TIGHT THEN AND HAVE REMAINED ENDURING OVER THE YEARS. " ROLLING HOME" IS SHORT BUT SOME OF THE FINEST BLUES GUITAR EVER PLAYED. I STILL GET GOOSE BUMPS EVERY TIME I HEAR IT.

This is one of the rock masterpieces from the 1970's. It still sounds as fresh as it did in 1976. The remastered version is a definite improvement in the sound quality. Can't go wrong with this one.

Climax Blues Band Gold Plated
A real, honest-to-goodness blues band who worked in the background to others, Climax Blues Band was second to none. With Colin Cooper, Peter Haycock, Derek Holt, and Richard Jones, they had started out as Climax Chicago Blues Band, but shortened it in 69. But Gold Plated was their biggest effort. With the song "Couldn't Get It Right", they got it right, and "Together And Free" and "Extra" and nice cuts. Great blues effort from a great Blues band.

I needed “Extra”
Classic late 70s Climax Blues Band. May just be their finest effort!

昔好きだった「Couldn't Get It Right」がどうしても聴きたくなって購入。当時このアルバムが全米で売れたのは知っていたけど初めて通して聴いてみて、ポップなメロディに驚き。全8曲が物足りないくらいです。ブルースロック好きに限らず一度聴いてみてはいかがでしょう。

The album was delivered 10 days prior to the expected delivery date! Absolutely fantastic! The owners, Christine & Phil, were also kind enough to send a handwritten note, too. I'm hoping they have a physical store, so I can pop in and browse other records which are missing from my collection. I'm ecstatic with my purchase, which was very cheap given the feast condition it was in. I would highly recommend this seller.

Blues vom Feinsten. Kann man immer wieder hören und hat einfach gute Laune. Musik die leider heute nicht mehr produziert wird.

I used to have this on vinyl. Briefly when it came out but thanks to the astournding Raw live and Rare 3rd set in have rediscovered this all over again along with the stamp and reel to reel albums Firstly it sound simply fantastic thanks to a beautiful remaster by Mark Poxwell at Esoteric whose climax reissue programme this is a part of plus it has 7 worthy bonus tracks that add almost 28 minutes extra music and a very informative booklet this band has a very subtle oomph to their music and it's a album that grows in stature as you ilsten to it more and more and in Peter Haycock they had a guitarist of great texture, tone and taste and along with Colin Coopers sax added an extra dimension to their sound Top class album.
