Try it at least for the rest of this year, if not next.Р”Р„lso, this weekend marks a year since I was last gainfully employed, which I shit you not makes me want to go jump in front of a truck. ThatРІР‚в„ўs the plan, and again, it depends on how willing the ducks are to get in a row, but IРІР‚в„ўm hoping it works out and that I can do another one in the summer, fall, end of year, etc. IРІР‚в„ўm gonna get through the stuff in the piles and on my desktop and then the week after that, IРІР‚в„ўm gonna go to Roadburn without feeling like IРІР‚в„ўm blowing anything off (other than life, responsibility, and the usual) and itРІР‚в„ўs going to be awesome. Once again, taking it all on, 10 reviews a day for five days. and I have our niece and nephew for the next three days - IРІР‚в„ўll be doing a Quarterly Review. That said, thereРІР‚в„ўs a fuckton of it and I feel like at this point IРІР‚в„ўm only able to answer about half of the emails that come in.Р”В«ottom line? Next week - assuming I can get my shit together this weekend, which should be an adventure since The Patient Mrs. IРІР‚в„ўm NEVER gonna complain about people sending me their music - NEVER. Well, itРІР‚в„ўs been three months and IРІР‚в„ўm buried in mail again. The idea was to wrap up the year with a splurge of 50 reviews across those five days, basically wiping the slate more or less clean heading into the New Year. You may or may not recall that at the end of last year, I did a five-day feature called Last Licks 2014. Ditto that for Budgie, Atomic RoosterР’В and so on. I canРІР‚в„ўt imagine what the dudes who would soon enough form CactusР’В must have thought when they heard this for the first time.

Its moments of stretch-out are righteous, MudР’В himself kills it despite the culture clash, and itРІР‚в„ўs almost too easy to read the future of heavy and blues rock into its swaying measures. To imagine this and Electric LadylandР’В and The White AlbumР’В and Blue CheerРІР‚Вs Vincebus EruptumР’В and numerous others from Deep PurpleР’В to Sly and the Family StoneР’В being released in the same year, itРІР‚в„ўs easy to see why the Baby Boomers point to 1968 as the culturally defining moment of their generation - something Gen X has started to do with 1995, fascinatingly I wouldРІР‚в„ўve thought РІР‚в„ў91 or РІР‚в„ў92 - but in its style and concept, Electric MudР’В is an outlier, and that too is part of what makes it seem so historically righteous.

Rotary ConnectionР’В had released their self-titled debut LP in 1967, and their swing and penchant for fuzzy exploration is a big part of the personality of the album, but Electric MudРІР‚Вs mismatch turns out to be one of its greatest assets, the rhythm of РІР‚СљI Just Want to Make Love to YouРІР‚Сњ or РІР‚СљHerbert HarperРІР‚в„ўs Free Press NewsРІР‚Сњ not nearly as fluid as its lead guitar, but busy, and swinging, and - what seems today unmistakable, though itРІР‚в„ўs a hindsight observation for sure - heavy. The YardbirdsР’В had been kicking around for a couple years by РІР‚в„ў68, as had Cream, but Muddy Waters wasnРІР‚в„ўt a rocker, and whether it was his take onР’В the Rolling StonesРІР‚В РІР‚СљLetРІР‚в„ўs Spend the Night Together,РІР‚Сњ or the yowls that topped the jam in РІР‚СљMannish Boy,РІР‚Сњ his approach wasnРІР‚в„ўt a rockerРІР‚в„ўs approach. A sort of precursor/companion to HowlinРІР‚в„ў WolfРІР‚Вs The HowlinРІР‚в„ў Wolf AlbumР’В -Р’В which was released the next year and also featured psych rockers Rotary Connection backing a famous bluesman who either did or did not hate the resulting collaboration - Electric Mud nonetheless had an impact beyond probably what producer Marshall Chess of Chess Records could have imagined when he brought the involvedР’В parties together to record these tracks, influencing two generations of fuzzed-up blues jams from Led ZeppelinР’В on down to any number of revivalist practitioners today. It does not store any personal data.Well over four decades later, itРІР‚в„ўs kind of hard to separate fact from fiction and fiction from legend when it comes to a record like Muddy WatersРІР‚В 1968 excursion into psychedelia, Electric Mud.
