  1. STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER
Original LONDON 1968 inner sleeve included
  1. .................................................................

  2. One of the greatest blues rock albums to come out of late '60s England... if you missed it, here is a great way to re-discover or get into the meat of the magic
  3. .................................................................
  4. What is perhaps the mightiest BLUESBREAKERS album, filled with powerhouse moving numbers and great, great guitar play by 19 year old Mick Taylor... A great solid album that's a dark horse candidate for Mayall & The Bluesbreakers best work. killer arrangements and percussion with savage guitar from Mick Taylor; A sense of sadness seeps deep beneath the blues. Very adult music. This 1968 Bluesbreakers’ album with latter day Rolling Stone Mick Taylor on guitar is one of his best, an unheralded gem. From the psychedelic sleeve on this is reading of the blues with the Bare Wires Suite sounding like The Bluesbreakers interpretation of the Beatles 'Sgt Pepper' -- Mick Taylor’s guitar throughout cutting up heavy next to the stabbing reeds of Dick Heckstall-Smith’s adding to the overall charm of this strange but truly alluring album. Bare Wires is a trippy, mesmerizing album that is just astounding and at times scary. The sheer level of musicianship involved is evident all over. John Hiesman is a wicked evil drum wizard with a killer groove and fantastic chops. Mick Taylor, already proven on their "Crusade" album takes things a step or three further and really delivers the goods on this album. The rest of the band is superb, probably Mayalls best lineup ever right here -- and certainly the most ambitious album by John Mayall. The first track is a 22 minute suite where he lays out his personal trials and tribulations, from masturbating to problems with girl friends - Mayall makes it work. The music that accompanies this piece is fantastic. 

  5. BARE WIRES is lively, smokey rock oriented blues. There are great solos throughout. The tracks are memorable with catchy melodies...

  6. As mentioned above, a great great album that delivers more than a few surprises with each spin...
