This is one of the very few live garage band tapes from the mid-'60s of relatively decent sound quality (considering the standards of the era).
The song selection of this set should also please fans of one of the most famed '60s garage bands, captured here at a club in their home turf of Chicago in December 1966.
The 13 songs include live versions of many of the tunes from their first (and best) album, as well as a six-minute workout of their lone national hit "Gloria" and a couple of Solomon Burke covers.
However, it's not essential if you already have the original albums, or the fine best-of compilation released in the U.K. on Edsel, Gee-El-O-Are-I-Ay.
These versions are very close in arrangement to the officially released ones, but the performance is less accomplished, as it were, and the sound quality worse.
An interesting artifact that nevertheless has little appeal beyond '60s garage collector circles, although the very brief quotes from the Mothers of Invention's "Help I'm A Rock" are most curious and unexpected. (by Richie Unterberger from amg)
