He was also a talent scout, as became apparent when he discovered the remarkable guitarist and singer Shuggie Otis. The lad's youthful enthusiasm and energy blends with Kooper's more mature musical contribution on keyboards on a selection of songs and blues jams. The pair are backed by a solid 'house band' on the rave up gospel number 'Bury My Body', and the styles vary from the funk of a Booker T & the MGs 'cover', to the traditional blues of 'Shuggie's Old Time Slide Boogie' with it's nifty piano and slide guitar duet. A satisfying blues bash, full of musical surprises. Booklet with authoritative and extensive liner notes by respected author and journalist Chris Welch. Expertly remastered - superb sound.Packaged in a digipak with 8-page booklet.
Originally released as (US) Columbia 9951 (1969).
