chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted August 4, 2006 Author Report Posted August 4, 2006 oh, and the live one had THREE guitar players! all at the same time-- that kinda turned me off but if you say its cool ill totally takeyour word for it.... Quote
jodigrind Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 (edited) I happen to love these albums; the grooves are relentless. As I recall, the number of guitars don't take anything away and the different colors when they solo mean things don't get overly monotonous. George Freeman is on the studio side and he ALWAYS takes things in a different direction. The live side gets a bit rowdier which is for the good. I also think the two organs play well off each other--McGriff is still in his "hot" phase before he lounged it up in his '80's recordings for Milestone. I don't think you can go wrong with these at all--especially for the price. Edited August 4, 2006 by jodigrind Quote
