An LP I wouldn't have cared a lot about if just for the music. Rather ordinary instrumental blues trials with some good guitars, first issued without the artists approval on assorted Immediate samplers. Then after the label crashed picked up by other companies, compiled in various ways and released as collections. Some of it a mix of home recordings made 1965 by Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page and then overdubbed with help from members of the Rolling Stones - Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman, Mick Jagger and Ian Stewart. The rest off-session stuff played for fun with Cyril Davies All Stars. So non of it initially recorded for any kind of release, reason for disclosure was label greed only. And my reason for buying and savouring it is music history. Getting mid-sixties recordings with larger part of The Rolling Stones together with Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Cyril Davies, is more than enough for keeps regardless of outcome. Audio shifts from rather bad to almost ok, but at least it's pristine. Premiere issue by US RCA as "Guitar Boogie" (LSP 4624 e) was a ten track in rechanneled stereo. This second press - first released in Germany with original mono takes - had other track order and also adding the Page/Clapton number "Miles Road". It came with label as shown here and laminated cover. (RÅ*) (LÖZ*) (CÄRÄ*) (JÄB*) (GÖXÄ*)
