 Elvin Bishop - Raisin' Hell
Submitted on: 2009-08-31 |
|
| I consider this one of Elvin's better albums. Definately upbeat, especially with the opening track of "Raisin' Hell". It is hard to outdo the version of "Fooled Around And Fell In Love", that had Mickey Thomas (before joining Jefferson Starship) as lead vocal. Elvin is no slacker when it comes to playing the guitar as well. This album was recorded at the height of the Southern Rock era. |

 Just Good Ol' Fun

| I have been a big Elvin Bishop fan for many years. He is an accomplished blues guitarist but back in the 70's he wrote Fooled Around and Fell in Love. This put him on the charts with hs only huge hit. He toured and the result was this really fun CD (album). I saw him perform this live and was one of my best concerts I've seen. I realize that this isn't and never was mainstream; but if want something that will just make you forget the tough workday on the way home this might be for you. Many of the songs (at least to me) seems as if the Old Beverley Hillibilies might have written ( Stealin' Watermelons, Travelin' Shoes, Calling All Cows, and Juke Joint Jump). Also, with a great fun blues song(Little Brown Bird-fantastic guitar solo in the middle). Along with songs from his Strutin' My Stuff album). If anyone realizes what he has gone through in his career and personal life ( do some research no parent wants to have go through this); you should have some fun and listen to this. It's just fun. |

The Elvin hits you grew up with

This CD was rated highly by other Amazon customers and I purchased it based on their recomendations. I was not disapointed. I loved it from the
first track on! I played it on my car CD player while traveling with a friend, and he immediately remarked that he loved it. He said he had grown up listening to those songs. I now have several Elvin Bishop's CD's
in my collection and have ordered two more. I can't wait for them to arrive, which should be this week. This is the best of his releases that
I have listened to so far! Buy this one, you will not be disappointed! |

Elvin Bishop at his pinnacle!

| This live record does what all good live records should do, it captures an artist at his peak. These live recordings came on the heels of his only big radio hit "Fooled Around And Fell In Love". Bishop took a full strength band on tour that included the "Tower Of Power" horn section, his full band that had been with him for years, great backup singers, and future Jefferson Starship singer Mickey Thomas. The result is a finely tuned live show, and a version of the previously mentioned hit that may be better than the original (Mickey Thomas's voice is phenomenal). Elvin Bishop has a great voice as well and gets highlighted on some of the old favorites. The sound quality is great, and so is this saved moment in time. |

Good Ol' Time

| I've had the good fortune of seeing Elvin Bishop live several times and the man definitely knows how to rock the house. He mixes his own style of Blues with lots of humor. His guitar playing is genuine and influenced by the Chicago Blues style. He has played in great bands like Buffalo Springfield, but he is definitely his own man. I don't care who you are, if you want to feel good, check out Elvin Bishop. His lyrics are funny and he always jokes around with the audience and his band. This live recording demonstrates a lot of that. The only reason I gave this CD a four star is because, as good as it is, I think some of his other CD's like "Ace in the Hole" are my personal favorites. Still, you really can't go wrong. Check it out! |
