My personal review and reflection:
There are five tracks on this album from a live session at the Flamingo club in London from March 1966. It's John M, Eric, Hughie Flint and Jack Bruce on bass! I wish I had been there! It's great live blues. Two outstanding songs with brilliant solos by Eric: "Have You Ever Loved A Woman" and "Hoochie Coochie Man". Wow!
