Product Details

Product Description

Product Description

Al Kooper - one of the seminal figures of the New York scene in the late Sixties - was a ubiquitous multi-instrumentalist and producer. He was also a talent scout, as became apparent when he discovered the remarkable guitarist and singer Shuggie Otis. The lad's youthful enthusiasm and energy blends with Kooper's more mature musical contribution on keyboards on a selection of songs and blues jams. The pair are backed by a solid `house band' on the rave up gospel number `Bury My Body', and the styles vary from the funk of a Booker T & The MGs `cover', to the traditional blues of `Shuggie's Old Time Slide Boogie' with its nifty piano and slide guitar duet. A satisfying blues bash, full of musical surprises. Booklet with authoritative and extensive liner notes by respected author and journalist Chris Welch. Expertly remastered - superb sound.

4.0 out of 5 stars Anybody here, seen my old friend Shuggie? Sep 29 2000
By STEVE CHRISTENSEN - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This japanese import sounds great, and as far as I know, there are no domestic releases. I still have the LP, but it's virtually unplayable. However, this CD, complete with japanese liner notes, sounds so good, you can even hear Shuggies pick on the strings. Al Koopers organ/electric piano also sounds wonderful. My two favorites are #'s 5 and 7, the lengthy "12:15 Goonbash Blues" and "Shuggies Shuffle", respectively, an absolute MUST for any blues or blues/rock lover.

4.0 out of 5 stars remember he's 15 yrs old Dec 29 1998
By eferb46@aol.com - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
as the liner notes state shuggie is only 15 at the time of thie recording. while i am just discovering that this is finally available on cd i am very familiar with this record. if you loved super session then this is for you. the "a" side or songs is a combination of gospel and blues, while the "b" is 3 long jams. shuggie is the star here while kooper and the others keep a great backbeat, the blues are what shuggie is meant to play. only 2 questions remain, why no usa cd release? and why isn't shuggie recording? someone should find him in california and sign him quick.

4.0 out of 5 stars never released in america 'til now! Sep 23 2000
By STEVE CHRISTENSEN - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
this is another of my all time favorites, i had this album when i was only 20 years old....this is a japanese import complete with japanese liner notes, the correct title is "kooper session", not "volume 2 kooper sessions", but it is one and the same. shuggie otis was fifteen years old at the time, but boy, does he rip on guitar. my two favorite tracks are #'s 5 and 7, "12:15 slow goonbash blues" and "shuggies shuffle", a definate MUST for all blues/rock lovers.
