Canned Heat's second release, Boogie with Canned Heat (1968), pretty well sums up the bona fide blend of amplified late-'60s electric rhythm and blues, with an expressed emphasis on loose and limber boogie-woogie.
The quintet -- consisting of Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson (guitar/harmonica/vocals), Larry "The Mole" Taylor (bass), Henry "Sunflower" Vestine (guitar), Aldolfo "Fido" Dela Parra (drums), and Bob "The Bear" Hite (vocals) -- follow up their debut effort with another batch of authentic interpretations, augmented by their own exceptional instrumentation.
One development is their incorporation of strong original compositions. "On the Road Again" -- which became the combo's first, and arguably, most significant hit.
Their love of authentic R&B informs "World in a Jug," the dark "Turpentine Blues," and Hite's update of Tommy McClennan's "Whiskey Headed Woman."
The Creole anthem "Marie Laveau" is nothing like the more familiar cut by Bobby Bare, although similarities in content are most likely derived from a common source. The track, as rendered here, is arguably most notable for the driving interaction between guitarists Wilson and Vestine as they wail and moan over Hite's imposing leads.
Saving the best for last, the Heat are at the height of their prowess during the lengthy audio biography on "Fried Hockey Boogie." Each member is introduced by Hite and given a chance to solo before they kick out the jams, culminating in Hite's crescendo of " ... Don't forget to boogie!"
For enthusiasts as well as listeners curious about the oft-overlooked combo, this is an essential record

LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, unmarked labels which have lost none of their strong vibrant blue colour and have just two or three light spindle traces per side
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+
Both surfaces retain their original deep glossy sheen and are clean with one or two light marks - these have no audio consequence
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
In keeping with its lightly played status the record plays beautifully throughout with a deep, rich and warm sound.
There is a touch of light surface between some of the tracks (very minor) and the (very) occasional, intermittent 'pop' (again, very minor and non-intrusive) but no other audible distractions of any kind - this is a really lovely copy
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
A superb example - clean and fresh with a deep, deep glossy sheen to the front laminate and a clean, unmarked back.
The edges are crisp, square and unworn (some minor light creases to the spine only) and the whole sleeve feels practically as-new
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WITH THE VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY 'KNIFING' DURING TRANSIT
A PROTECTIVE POLY SLEEVE, NEW INNER SLEEVE WITH ANTI-STATIC LINER, QUALITY BOX (NOT ENVELOPE) MAILER AND AMPLE STIFFENERS ARE ALWAYS USED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY
