BRUNNING SUNFLOWER BLUES BAND/ I WISH YOU WOULD SAGA 8150 (-70) UK

For background information about the group and their previous issue, please check my post on the "Trackside Blues" LP. This was Brunnings fourth and last recording for UK budget label Saga. Even if uncredited guest star Peter Green hightened the quality on their previous one, this is all together a better piece of work. It sounds more mature and from a steadier ground. Still traditional blues, but with addition of brass and flute on some numbers and overall secure playing. Especially one track - "Uranus" - has a very good guitar with familiar licks. According to back cover text it's played by guest guitarist "Peter Blue" (it don't take a genious to figure that out). All brass and flute was provided by John Altman - multi-talanted musician, composer and arranger who also worked with Fleetwood Mac, Hendrix, Bob Marley, Clapton, Jeff Beck and Little Richard. Maybe his presence helped tighten things up and make this Brunnings best effort so far. (SÄGÖ*)(FXÄC*)
