Long Time Looking - Awesome.......2007-01-10

I had been looling for the Climax Blues Band on CD for a long time, having had them in every other format (including 8 track). Finding this compilation showed the evolution from their blues roots to the pop/rock format of the early '80s. I think they were terrfic in everything they did.

Climax Blues Band - bringing back memories.......2007-01-10

This is a great album for those of us who grew up in the 70's - takes you back to a much simpler time.

Teach Your Children (to learn their bands!).......2006-10-22

In 1975 I was at a friend's house when he played an import album on the Harvest label called Climax Chicago/Tightly Knit. I was immediately hooked and that album remains one of the top five of my all time fav's. That album and the follow up F.M Live showcase on of the best muti-instrumentalist Blues bands of all time period! Listen to Derick Holt's slide solo piece "County hat" on the Live album and it's clear your hearing one of the best (and definitely the most overlooked)slide guitarist to ever wear the bottle . When I read reviews where people base their opinion of this band on the throw away "money grab" song I Love You it makes me want to stick my head in an oven! This song is Air Supply-ish gooey crapola that doesn't deserve to be mentioned in a serious discussion of this band and was probably written to pay off some lawyer or something! There's a reason you don't hear Paul McCartney playing Yesterday live anymore people! File that stuff under Mr.Phyliss's Chic Flick compilations and let's move on! Disco and apparently corporate greed killed this band with Gold Plated being their true swan song. Buy Tightly Knit, A lot of Bottle, F.M Live and this collection IN THAT ORDER! I promise you will be a better educated and much happier consumer (and fan!)

Good quality sound, but not up to par.......2006-06-21

Let me start by saying I'm not an avid fan of Climax, or the Climax Blues Band. But I really enjoyed a few of their songs. Unfortunately, this was the only CD (set) that had one of those songs. I figured, what the heck, I'll see if I like anything else they've done. I did! Unfortunately, all you get is 2 CD's. No inserts. No background on the band. Nothing. Just 2 CD's. For what you have to pay for these 2 CD's, I really thought there'd be more. Just a little disappointed.

The album is the same old same old. Generic blues from a group that should not be generic.Buy at your own risk. There are many more new artists out there that your dollar will be well spent.
