Synopsis

Album Description

This is vintage Heat from a rare 1966 recording produced by famed rhythm and blues pioneer, Johnny Otis. These tracks are some of their very first ever, captured during a stint at El Dorado Studios in Los Angeles, way before their triumphs at both the Monterey and Woodstock rock festivals. Out of print for over thirty years, this collection is considered to be the definitive precursor to the first official Canned Heat album.

"Short but sweet. At 24:21 Varese could have knocked a few bucks off the price. A nice addition would be The Boogie House Tapes.

Either set."

VIntage Heat from 1966

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The original Canned Heat recording featuring Stuart Brotman on bass and Frank Cook on drums, Vintage Heat consisted entirely of blues covers including Robert Johnson's "Rolling & Tumbling" Elmore James' "Dust My Broom", Muddy Waters' "Got My Mojo Working", John Lee Hooker's "Dimples" and Howlin' Wolf "Evil Is Going On". The album was produced by Johnny Otis originally in 1966 at his one-horse studio before Canned Heat scored their record contract with Liberty. Bootlegged, bundled, and repackaged countless times under such names as "Eternal Boogie", "Don't Forget To Boogie", and "Canned Heat In Concert". Alan's crisp harmonica is a fresh breather for blues enthusiasts, and Bob Hite's grasp of "Shouting The Blues" is a sure-to-please first effort. This is what sets Canned Heat apart from the rest: The group was founded by obsessively dedicated musicologists. Originally surfaced in 1970 on Janus Records, The album cover's picture was an open tin can on fire. Check out the band's webpage at - www.cannedheatmusic.com.
