'75年の東京でのライブ録音。ホ-ンセクションなしでサイドギタ-にJimmy Johnsonを入れたカルテット。もともと精神的に波のある人で、それが演奏の出来に影響を与えることが多いのだが、これを録音した日は気分が良かったのか申し分の無い仕上がりになっている。superviserとしてあの日暮泰文さんがクレディットされている。Otis Rushと言えばいつもguitarばかりが注目されるが、勿論guitarは素晴らしいのだが小生は彼のvocalも高く評価している。あのハスキ-で且つ繊細な声そのものが非常にBlues向きである。彼には傑作アルバムと呼べる作品がそんなに多くないが、これは間違いなくその1枚に入る。

故中村とうようさんの紹介でオーティスが舞台に現れた時の歓声が、当時どれだけその来日が待望されていたかを何にも増して伝えてくれる、75年、初来日時のライブ盤です。
リトル・ブラザー・モンゴメリーらとのパッケージ・ツアーであるので、12曲目の「ギャンブラーズ・ブルース」が終わり、無情にもとうようさんによる後口上が途中で切られた後のアンコールが1曲の全13曲がオーティスの出番の全てかもしれませんが、現役最後の数年のブルーノートのツアーくらいの長さで、今となってはそんなことを考えるだけで曰く言い難い気持ちになります。
ライブ故にギター、ボーカルとも荒削りではありますが、それだけ勢いや熱さがあって、数の多い80年代以降のライブ盤とはまた違った、コブラに近いブルースの情念のようなものを感じます。

ラッシュ自身の歌と演奏は良いのですが、バックの演奏がイマイチで全体的にとろいです。ラッシュの孤軍奮闘ぶりが伺えます。ラッシュのアルバムはほとんど聞いていますが、ラッシュのライブ盤はワイズ・フールズ・パブ盤で十分でしょう。

Excellent Otis Rush Live Album From 1975
Reviewed in Canada on March 7, 2019Verified Purchase
This is an excellent live album of a 1975 Otis Rush performance in Japan.
The performance is first rate, with Otis Rush at the top of his game. The sound is very good. Audience noise is minimal.
Otis Rush is one of the great blues guitarists. His recordings have been covered by the likes of Led Zeppelin, among others.
If you are familiar with Otis Rush recordings, this one is a very worthwhile addition to you collection. If you are not familiar with Otis Rush, this album would be an excellent introduction.

A great example - one of the MUST have blues-guitar albums from one of the true greats
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2015Verified Purchase
I do not usually review CDs - as taste and enjoyment can be so subjective.
I enjoy listening to this so much, and as there are no previous reviews I have decided to post a review.
If you know Otis Rush, then you know what to expect musically. The sound quality on this recording is excellent, and it must have been a great concert to see live (from 1975 I believe). His guitar work is crisp clean and really well recorded. His vocals send shivers down my spine.
If you like Eric Clapton and John Mayall - listen to this album and you will hear where styles and approach crossed over, particularly compared with the Bluesbreakers album.
Highly, highly recommended!

This is one of those dessert island blues records...
Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2019Verified Purchase
If you're stranded on an island, and you can only take a handful of blues records, then this should be one of them. Otis Rush is an icon in the Chicago Blues community, and this is one of the few sincere, professionally-recorded attempts at capturing his musical essence. This is not a cheap, hastily thrown together bootleg. Someone was actually paying attention to detail when this was laid down, the performance was good, he had a competent backing band, the crowd was enthusiastic and the tracks were well chosen.

One of the great ones....
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2016Verified Purchase
This is definetly one for any blues collection, especially if you like Chicago blues from the westside. I'm not sure I agree with the comment about Otis's timing, he sounds pretty good to my ears. The band gets to work after the opening instrumental, and Otis begins to open it up....this was a great band, having Jimmy Johnson( love the Barroom Preacher ) with him is pretty cool! But it's all about that vioce, I can't hear him sing " All Your Love( I Miss Loving ) " too many times and it's wonderful here, and he just kills " Gambler Blues ", stinging guitar with his big vibrato and endless TONE!!! There's not, in my opinion, a lot of great Otis Rush albums, but this IS one of the great ones....
