3 out of 5 stars Prescription for the 'Bloomer's' Blues   August 3, 2008
Gone is the lightning fast, stinging, high voltage licks which was Bloomfield's prescription for living with the blues. He, originally gave us all that script, for living in dark times. Sadly, while there are still some traces of that to be found, hence making this worth buying, you can feel his decline in the unevenness of the selections and his playing. However, he has earned our forgiveness and and benefit of the doubt. Those who were infected by his early playing, and his contribution to the blues legacy, will wanna take the cure, and get a little more of the guy who Was Born in Chicago, Worked on Maggie's Farm, and who came from the East & left in the West. You'll find things to love.



5 out of 5 stars This looks like the album Junko Partner.   January 9, 2007

This looks like the same set of songs that's on the albums Junko Partner and American Hero. I have the latter two, and they are identical. I happen to love this album, not because it's Bloomfield's best album, but I love the range of music on this album. I remember Hully Gully as a dance song (Bloomfield does a really good job with it), then he goes into country, "drug" songs, and gospel - with Women Lovin Each Other Blues thrown in for fun!
