Saw them at The Trauma in Philly back around '67 or '68. Great show! Had to buy the LP after that, but it didn't compare to their live act.

Paul Bloomfield? Cool. I like it. Also loved Howlin' Wolf.

Man, if Howlin' Wolf could have had a nickel for every white kid who copped his licks!

...not to mention Jimi Hendrix's cover version. |

Not to mention Barry Goldberg, Harvey Brooks and Nick Gravenites plus a noteworthy! horn section. Short lived best-in-class predating BS&T.

No, just a pale echo of the righteous Original Version of this song, by the great Howlin' Wolf. Accept No Substitutes, even if Bloomfield's playing guitar.
Here's the original. Get it:

I remember every stereo in the Barracks blasting this song when the album first arrived in the PX at Fort Bragg. The album only lasted a day until the generals decided it was subversive and ordered it out.
The combination of the voice of Lyndon Baines Johnson ("I ahm You're President") and then the sarcastic, mocking vocals and music .. well, this is the paradigm of the anti-war movement in my opinion.
Damn! I love this album -- along with Steppenwolf (Don't Tell Me What to Do") were most played in the barracks.
