Svaba Ortak - Atlas Oder Nada - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This collection of live tracks and studio recordings provides an intriguing glimpse of what the late-1960s psychedelic blues band the Electric Flag might have become had it not begun to fall apart soon after the of it's 1968 debut album, A LONG TIME COMIN'. InchIt's Not the SpotlightInch is heavily Band-influenced, and InchI Was Robbed Last NightInch displays some typically stinging guitar work from Mike Bloomfield, who is also heavily featured in the after-hours InchMy Baby Wants to Test Me.Inch InchI Should Have Left HerInch is a live reworking of the band's incendiary version of InchKilling Floor,Inch while both InchGroovin' Is EasyInch and InchYou Don't Realize,Inch also performed live, were originally featured on A LONG TIME COMIN'.

So Far So Good offers up 13 of his previous hits plus a new song, InchPlease Forgive Me,Inch a gooey, Michael Bolton-like ballad. The album starts out with InchSummer of '69,Inch the appealing autobiographical song about the 10-year-old Adams learning to play his first guitar in Ontario, and includes Inch(Everything I Do) I Do for You,Inch the synth-laced ballad that wound up in the Guinness Book of World Records after topping the British singles charts for 16 weeks. With it's over-the-top, gravelly vocals, So Far So Good reminds one of Rod Stewart's 1980s work when he was coasting on past achievements. Unfortunately, Adams has never had a period like Stewart's glory years in the '70s.
