Description

The 36th album by a group named Canned Heat, this particular line-up formed at the end of 1999 around veteran member, drummer Fito de la Parra.
However, also popping in to guest on a couple of tracks (including a revision of "Let's Work Together") are former members Larry Taylor and Harvey Mandel, while another alumnus, Walter Trout, sings and plays on his own composition, "Home To You". Even more famous guests are blues great Taj Mahal (vocals on "Never Get Out Of These Blues Alive"), slide guitar master Roy Rogers ("Bad Trouble") and the late, legendary John Lee Hooker.

Although Hooker died in 2001 he appears with the inclusion of a previously unissued track ("Little Wheel") from his own 1989 album, The Healer, which also featured Canned Heat's de la Parra, Larry Taylor and Henry Vestine (himself now deceased).

This heavyweight guesting in no ways detracts from the contributions of the other mrmbers of the present line-up, Stan Behrens(flute,sax,harmonica,vocals), Dallas Hodge (vocals,guitar), John Paulus (guitar) and Greg Kage (bass guitar,vocals).

Definitely Canned Heat's strongest album in many years and all of this specially packaged in an actual tin can. Don't forget to boogie!
