Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Powerful 70's blues- jazz Rock .......2005-04-07

Great single cd of notable (best of) tracks from the Baker Gurvitz Army. For those the prefer a more hefty selection, BGA has a double cd compiliation called 'FLYING IN AND OUT OF STARDOM' which contains ALL of their albums,plus extras.
You can't beat the price used.
This cd is complemented very well with the live cd 'BAKER GURVITZ ARMY GREATEST HITS LIVE!'...2 of whoose tracks are represented here.

If you like SANTANA's tribal vibe you'll love this, though BGA have a more decisive ANGLOPHILE spin rather than the Afro/Latin/Caribbean of Carlos.

All musicians are given the room to expand on their musical dexterity, there's even the remnant of CREAM in Baker's 'Mad Jack' (think 'Pressed Rat and Warthog'). cd time= 60+ min
