I picked this up on a whim because......well just look at the shit. You're curious, right? I made the right choice. Hard swinging Bay Area blues rock from ex-HOLDING COMPANY dudes and if you know where I'm coming from here then you're going to be well pleased. Recorded live in 1985, fifteen years after Janis Joplin died - fifteen years that seemed like a lifetime when I was less old. But damn, these dudes had played on legendary records that I read about in Rolling Stone and were already back to shredding the Chi Chi Club in SF in those fifteen years and it probably seemed like just a blip on their radar. The closer "Party" is the jam here, but every song is a literal party. For everyone? Nah. For me? Definitely. And that is the point.
