Another uneven set of Norman Dayron leftovers, this one shows the guitar hero in exile, running through a set of tunes pulled from both electric and acoustic sessions. Michael "Bloomers" Bloomfield plays slide on "When I Need You," "Just a Closer Walk With Thee," and "At the Cross," opting for his better-known single-string work on "Memphis Radio Blues" and "Blues for Norman." While this is certainly not the place to start a
Bloomfield collection by any stretch, it's worth checking out after you've assembled the essentials of the man's work. ~ Cub Koda
