Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of Auger's better works. .......2006-12-01

Recorded in late 1968, the music still holds up well after 38 years. I got the original LP in '69 so it's nice to finally have a good CD of it. Now, I've given it 5 stars more for nostalgia than for just the music. The music has its weaknesses. Auger never was a strong vocalist and he has a bash at it on a few tracks but it's better, I suppose, than the "yowl" of one-time partner, Julie Driscoll. I just never liked her singing. On the other hand there is no guitar here (except on one of the bonus tracks) and that's good. For whatever reasons, Auger never really had good luck finding guitarists who could really swing. Then there is that track about "George Bruno Money". Who? Old geezers like me remember him as "Zoot" Money; another English keyboard player who tended towards a big-band sound. Never well known here in the US. Finally there are tracks "Red Beans and Rice", an old Booker T. and the MG's warhorse and "Bumpin' on Sunset", a Wes Mongomery tune. Red Beans truly rocks here and Bumpin' shows Auger at his jazzy best. Still good music this, after all the years.
