 Great Live Rick Derringer CD October 1, 2008
This CD is a great example of what Rick Derringer could do live. With the more fusion-oriented Danny Johnson as foil for Derringer's bluesy style, this band created great music that Derringer had trouble equaling with 80s albums such as the heavy metal disaster GOOD DIRTY FUN, which was a total waste of the talent that G-d gave him. This, along with ALL AMERICAN BOY, DERRINGER, LIVE AT THE PARADISE THEATER, and Derringer's work with Johnny and Edgar Winter, are the ultimate Rick Derringer library.
Pure genius! June 29, 2008

Rick Derringer' s impressive talent became him a true living legend, despite of the fact he lived literally in one of the most significant decades the Rock has ever known about.
His fabulous fingering, audacious riffs were always supported by his mesmerizing inspiration and extraordinary arrangements.
If you still don't know this fabulous guitarist, it's time for you to get close him. Don' t miss this album, because we are talking the basic roots of the Rock & Roll in hands of one of its more important Ambassadors.
 going back to another time February 13, 2008
Very good CD, After hearing this for the first time since 1978, It brought back some memories of another time. When I first heard the record back then, I was amazed how well Rick played. We use to play air guitar and talk how we wish we could play that good. Makes a great addition to my ever growing collection.
I was there! November 9, 2007
This was a club date in 1977 at the Whiskey-A-Go-Go in LA on the Sunset Strip. If I remember correctly, KLOS also broadcast it live, so I always had a tape of this concert. I loved this concert. I had no idea it was released as an album or CD.
The Whiskey is a very small club, maybe 300 people max, and everyone there was there to see Derringer. He did not disappoint. Every song was right on the mark and the crowd was totally into it.
Derringer and his band had written many great songs, and though it was a short set they pack a big punch. This concert, and a night at the Roxy with Peter Gabriel are 2 of my all time favorite concerts (number 1 was Frampton at Winterland).
Way to go Rick!
raunchy guitarrock August 9, 2006
I owed this album on vinyl for a long time but I am glad this is available on CD also (with no extras though). Apart from the short setlist, a mere 8 songs are performed, this is one of the best offerings in the Rick Derringer range, a coherent live recording, around 1976, when he and his band gained high heights. Culled from a broad repertoire, with classics like "Teenage Love Affair" and "Still Alive and Well", the latter also from the Johnny Winter roster, and closer, a long version of "Rock and Roll, Hootchie Koo" (also performed by the Johnny Winter Band) plus 3 songs taken from "Derringer" and - sadly only one - from the outstanding "Sweet Evil", on which the same members are present, they played a highly energised set with room for guitarsoloing for both guitarplayers Derringer himself and Danny Johnson. This surely is one of the highlights of the (hard)rockscene in the midseventies. The band certainly showed they could entertain and deliver with no holding back. The album belongs in the long row of excellent seventies live-albums. A true classic, albeit a short one.
