Play it loud
Is it worth it? Yes. The album that started it all (along with the PROGRESSIVE BLUES EXPERIMENT). Is it worth buying for the bonus tracks? Yes. Are you still reading this when you should just be buying it? (Yes?).


Essential listening
In 40 years of personal record-collecting and appreciation of recorded music, I would place this album on my top ten favorites list of all time. Prior to 1969, Johnny Winter was an established, regional artist in Texas, but it was with the release of "Progressive Blues Experiment", and this, his debut on Columbia Records, that he gained national attention. I simply never tire of listening to this visceral, heartfelt rendition of the blues. He never puts a note wrong. Even after playing this record perhaps a thousand times, it still sends chill up my spine.

Johnny himself was never able to top this material on subsequent recordings. This record is a watershed in the history of recorded blues music, at least, the Texas blues genre as performed by white people. And, no one is more white than Johnny Winter.


Great 60's Blues
It has never gotten the respect it deserves. This is johnny winter's best album. It belongs with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers as the best white blues rock expressions of the sixties. The remastering is perfect. Just buy it.


Johnny Winter
Just very good Johnny Winter, blues with some rock. Had not heard this music since it came out, my loss! Excellent, glad I have it in my collection now. Don't miss out as I did for so long!.


Classic Johnny Winter
Incredible guitar playing. This CD is a 'must have' for every blues fan. Almost all of my favorite Johnny Winter tracks are included on this CD.
