Elvin Bishop: Juke Joint Jump
Bob Fisher, NME, July 1975
ELVIN BISHOP'S place in the scheme of post-Beatles US Rock has been pretty much undervalued over the years. This is probably owing to his uncanny ability (since leaving the Paul Butterfield/Mike Bloomfield axis) to turn out really slovenly albums.
