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: EXCELLENT+
Clean, unmarked labels which carry just a few spindle traces
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT
Both surfaces retain their original deep glossy sheen and are clean with some hairlines (audibly insignificant)
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT+
Plays beautifully throughout with a deep, rich and warm sound and nothing but an isolated click/pop (caused by pin-point in-vinyl pressing spots which seem to be inherent with this first pressing).
Very nice copy indeed - sounds great
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Apart from some rub to the corners the sleeve is in fine shape with a deep gloss to the front laminate, a clean back and unworn edges and spine, (pinched at the top and bottom) with all text clear and bold
