Negative Positive
Title: Bloomfield's potential is not showcased here
Review: Maybe I'm wrong. I haven't listened to it in several months, so I'll give it another try later. My initial impression was that of disappointment. Too much slide (I've never cared for Mikes slide playing), and his straight guitar work is too few and far in between, and very tentative sounding at best. It makes one wonder if this was recorded during Mike's "illness" (out of respect I'll refer to it as such). After purchasing this, I ran out and bought the "Don't Say I Ain't Your Man" compilation, and was blown away by the excellent guitar playing throughout. It seems to be absent here. Maybe it's just me. Hmmm.....
Is the review positive or negative?
