Paul Butterfield Blues Band - Keep On Moving
Year: 1969
Label: Elektra
Total time: 42:09
Bitrate: 320 kbps

Released in 1969, Keep on Moving was the fifth Elektra release by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. During a four-year span the group's namesake and leader was the only original member left from their first album in 1965. Morphing in a similar direction as Michael Bloomfield's Electric Flag, this edition of the Butterfield Blues Band prominently fronted the horn section of David Sanborn on alto sax, Gene Dinwiddie on tenor, and Keith Johnson on trumpet. The band's direction was full tilt, horn-dominated soul music, first explored on The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw, which took them farther away from the highly regarded gritty blues experimentation of East-West and the duel guitar attack of Michael Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop. This album also signaled the final appearance of AACM and Art Ensemble of Chicago drummer Phillip Wilson, whose Butterfield swan song was the collaboration with Dinwiddie on the hippie gospel track "Love March," of which an appropriately disjointed live version appeared on the Woodstock soundtrack album. The difference between Butterfield's 1965 street survival ode "Born in Chicago" ("My father told me 'son you'd better get a gun") and "Love March" ("Sing a glad song, sing all the time") left fans wondering if the band had become a bit too democratic. However, on cuts like "Losing Hand," some of the band's original fervor remains. Butterfield's harp intertwining with the horn section sounds like a lost Junior Parker outtake and the Jimmy Rogers' penned "Walking by Myself," is the closest this band comes to the gutsy Windy City blues of its heyday. The remaining tracks aren't horrible, but tend to run out of ideas quickly, unfortunately making what may have been decent material (with a little more effort) sound premature. Butterfield would make a few more personnel changes, release one final disc on Elektra, Sometimes I Just Feel Like Smilin', and then dump the band altogether to embark on a solo career. ~ Al Campbell, AMG

I saw this band in the 1969-70 time frame at a dining hall dance at SUNY Binghamton. We were up close and got to see and hear something I would never forget. I had long since lost my vinyl copy and so I immediately snatched up the cd. With anticipation I waited to hear Buzzy's solo's on 'Where Did my Baby Go' and 'Walkin By Myself'...can't say enough about his lyricism and phrasing..some of the best you will hear..it still lives and its 35 years old... Great horn arrangements and you'll hear a very young Dave Sanborn play some great solos. Great bass playing by Rod Hicks as well and some really fine Harp work by Paul. This cd is a gem..don't hesitate to buy it!!! ~ ADEYO (Binghamton, NY, USA)
