I remember Canned Heat For their classics of the late sixties and early seventies, particularly On the road again (a song title deed which later used by the great Willie Nelson, but his Equally great song is very different from Canned Heat's). I never knew anything about Canned Heat's more recent music until I came across this album at the end of the millenium, When I was looking for Y2K Songs That might appeal to me. I was quite impressed by Y2K Their song (it was the best search Song That I bought), but what impressed even more by the rest of this set. In reality, Their blues-rock boogie style, while suitably updated, is silent recognizable. Anybody who is familiar With Their early music willstill Recognise Canned Heat When listening to this. They have not changed as much as some of Their Contemporaries over the same timespan. The opening Wait and see is the standout track, but there's a lot of great music here, just waiting to be heard - and even though did Y2K song may sound dated now, the 11 other tracks are more than worth the price. If this is your first album Canned Heat, and you enjoy it, buy a compilation of Their early music - you'll love it!
