Product Description

(1969 'Blue Horizon')(40:10/10) Lange Jahre eine der meistgesuchten Blues-LPs überhaupt! Im Anschluss an die Blues Jam At Chess-Sessions nahmen Fleetwood Mac, damals Europas Bluesband Nr.1, in New York dieses wunderschöne Album mit dem wohl besten Bluespianisten der 60er Jahre und Muddy-Waters-Bandmitglied Otis Spann auf. Eins der besten Beispiele der schwarz/weißen Zusammenarbeit jener Ära. Gehört in jede Sammlung

By Koos
Format:Audio CD
Recorded in january 1969, "Biggest thing since Colossus" is probably one of the most underrated bluesalbums.
It's Otis Spann on vocals and Piano, backed by his own drummer and three Fleetwood Mac members: Peter Green, Danny Kirwan and John McVie.
During the sixties, there was the English blues boom, containing many bluesbands, One of the finest Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac.
On "Colossus" Peter Green has reached his peak: Guitarsound is great, playing is excellent, listen to "My love depends on you" and the "Temperature Song", a perfect slow blues song.
Looking for an album that contains a perfectly mix of black blues and white blues? Go get this on.
Otis Spann loved Peter Green's guitarplaying as much as drinking Bourbon. This album declares why.
Amazing performance, as bluesalbum one of the best around.

This set recorded in 1969 captures Peter Green at the very peak of his powers. I can't begin to describe the tone and spine tingling perfection of his playing on this record. An absolute must for all Greeny fans.

Great blues album 9 Dec 2009
Format:Audio CD
This is a fantastic blues album. A couple of songs are slightly marred by wah-wah guitars being a bit too loud in the mix, but overall it's a fine album, and worth getting for the sublime version of "Ain't nobody's business" alone.
