5 out of 5 stars Pickering Cartridge Funk.......2007-06-14

I know that my title may not make since to many but back in '68 I was 13 yrs old and the best needle and cartridge you could buy was a Pickering. It came with higher end Fisher stereos. Anyway, Eddie Harris, Houston Pearson and David "Fathead" Newman were jammin' back then. Listen Here has always been my favorite tune. When I first read that Eddie had an electronic device on his sax to produce that unique sound I was hooked. I have purchased four different albums with this cut on it just to make sure I never lose it. If you really want some gritty funk jazz get " Compared to What" with Eddie and Les McCann.

5 out of 5 stars Old outrageous albums and still the best many years later........2007-05-09

I am relistening to an album I purchased in 1968, Eddie Harris, Plug Me In. This still sounds like the ripping stirring jazz it was back in 1968. I thought this album was outrageous in 1968, I loved it then. And, after all these years, it is still outrageous and I still vibrate when I listen. How could this still be so vibrant after all these years? I don't know, I let the experts explain that. Also just listened to Les McCann and Eddie Harris, Swiss Movement, 1969, Cold Duck is still being played by everybody all these years later. What a great musican. This is great music, a classic. It don't get a better if it last nearly forty years.

4 out of 5 stars One of the founders.......2006-07-31

Eddie Harris was one of the founding fathers of electrified jazz saxaphone. Others that follow are David Koz, Kenny G and many others.

At least Ronnie Laws had the good sense to make a tribute album to Eddie for how he inspired Ronnie and Eddie's contributions.

I had this album when it was on vinyl. Never tired of hearing it because Eddie just played. No nonesensical or trite lyrics. Just genius tones, tonal combinations or great percussion.

The artists of today are very good. No question or arguement. However, I think they were inspired by this great gentleman of jazz.

The electrifiny Eddie Harris. If you like saxaphone jazz, listen to Eddie's recordings. He will electrify you too!

4 out of 5 stars very Smooth&On Point.......2005-07-20

Eddie Harris is a Very Versatile Musician.two for One Albums here that showcase the various Grooves,tempos&Stylings on here.He has a cool vibe on the Sax.you feel the Music here covering a smooth Groove of Jazz,but yet it has a Funky Backdrop that is always Grooving.this is the kind of Multi Set that truly highlights a Artist who had His thing.this is a Good Collection&a Good Price.

5 out of 5 stars Ghetto Jazz..........2001-06-13

....subtitled "Theme in Search of A Jazz CD Review".

....sub-subtitled "The Lounge Cats Ride Again".

Followers of these many reviews I have done for Amazon know that I really can't claim to be an all-knowing jazz purist type because, see, I never played any musical instrument and I was not privy to any great jazz era. (Not directly, that is.) Plus, I have listened to many things in all genres and I love a lot in all of them. I do remember some of the cuts that my Dad's hangout buddies, The Lounge Cats kinda dug. As an aside, I also have a great aversion to doing reviews on someone's total record/CD catalog. I mean, I may write something on one or two of Miles Davis' CD because I may personally like them...I ain't even gonna pretend to say I've heard and liked all of Miles output. No disrespect intended, Miles is great and all that, but I can't and never will front like that....

Members of the Lounge Cats, however, always, and I do mean always, give me suggestions of what to write about which artist.

This is Eddie Harris. Eddie would be in that group of jazz artists I would call Ghetto Jazz...background music playing on the stereo or juke box in some hole-in-the wall bar and grill or afterhours spot. Eddie would be played, so would greats like Jimmy Smith, Jimmy Mcgriff, Wes Montgomery, Bro Ray Charles, early Crusaders...you get the picture? Accessible and grooving tunes that are not too far out of reach to us commoners...

This is the CD with two, count 'em two, great Eddie Harris albums, "The Electrifying Eddie Harris" and "Plug Me In", I purchased recently upon hearing a poppin', hissing vinyl version of "Listen Here"....what can I say, but The Lounge Cats convinced me--by albeit primitive means, they got me grroovin' to something I would not have ordinarily. Ol' Guys like that are a treasure.

Normally, here I'd flex my reviewers prejorative and show you how I did my homework, ie read the liner notes, to list the many different players, the engineers, what time of the great 70s jazz era this was in, to show you how much a knowledgeable jazz expert I am.

But that ain't the point of this and I daresay any of these reviews I write. Good Stuff actually speaks for itself. I'm no expert, I'm an evvy day Joe who loves to listen to Good Stuff...

I'll let the great, late saxophonist's art speak, as it were, for itself...

My parting comments? I have been playing it in its entirety a couple days a week since I got it. Needless to say, I love it. And the ol' dog learned a few more tricks from some older dogs, once again....

    4 out of 5 stars Two very good albums.......2000-10-04

    High Voltage is a live set recorded at Shelly Manne's club. "Live Right Now" (from Plug Me In) is a real good 'un. Many fine moments between these two albums.
