The title's baloney. Sure, some of Buddy Guy's most blistering guitar playing has been captured on his '90s recordings for Silvertone, but with albums like Muddy Waters's 1964 Folk Singer and his own 1967 solo debut A Man & the Blues on his résumé, Guy's status as a Chicago blues giant was assured long before his 1991 comeback Damn Right, I've Got the Blues. Nonetheless, that tune, the instrumental tribute "Remembering Stevie" (for the late guitar-slinger Vaughan), "Five Long Years," and the previously unissued "Miss Ida B" testify that at age 65 Guy still possesses rare depth and fire. His singing is big and soulful, capable of cheerleading a party or hurtling down to the depths of Delta blues heartache. His six-stringing remains wildly inventive and unpredictable, even on slight numbers like "She's a Superstar." And the inclusion of blatant stabs at the pop charts such as his "Midnight Train" duet with Jonny Lang take nothing away from the passion he puts into true blues performances like "I Need Your Love So Bad" and "Innocent Man," leftovers from earlier sessions that surface here. Baddest or not, this CD spotlights one of our greatest bluesmen in fine form. --Ted Drozdowski

oh yeah.......2007-03-29

I like "Damn Right, I've Got the Blues" better, but this is still great. I loved Stevie Ray Vaughn, and since Buddy played at the last concert Stevie ever gave, I looked forward to hearing the instrumental tribute to him. I wasn't disappointed. Anybody who thinks Chicago blues is always loud and driving should listen hard to that one. Like any great music, there's more than one way to be blue. Yeah, Buddy.

Rick "Shaq" Goldstein says: "Do not read this review, unless YOU LOVE THE BLUES!!".......2007-01-21

Do you love the blues? I said, DO YOU LOVE THE BLUES? If you don't, then this CD is not for you! This CD was made for blues lovers. From the first guttural.. From the first growl.. From the first screeching.. Lyrics from Buddy: "DAMN RIGHT, I'VE GOT THE BLUES!" You are on your way to a blues experience. You don't get to warm up! You don't get to pace yourself! From Buddy's first exulted, words of "blues", you are hooked into a blues experience, that there's no getting out of! For those of you who are blues neophytes, in the electric blues world, Buddy, said that Stevie Ray Vaughn, was his best friend, and like a brother to him. With this knowledge, pay special attention to song #4, "Remembering Stevie". It's an instrumental that Buddy wrote in memory of Stevie, after his untimely death. This CD is a testament to one of the all-time greatest electric blues guitar performers... Mr. Buddy Guy. 5 stars for now and forever.

The Master of the Blues.......2006-07-27

Buddy Guy is "The Master of the Blues." He glides his fingers over his guitar like the wind showing his expertise with every note. I've seen him once in person and he made a lifetime impression on me. Buddy's Baddest will fill you with the energetic life force of a Buddy Guy concert.

The #3 best blues guitarist?.......2005-05-20

buddy guy always seems to get third billing behind eric clapton and b.b. king, but this collection of songs is certainly an excellent sampler of why he is always mentioned in the same breath with those other 2 lads !!!!! it is an excellent introduction to one very exciting and inventive blues guitarist (go visit his nightclub in chicago and check out all the autographed guitars on the walls)
these songs sizzle: "mustang sally" takes off like a rocket, "midnight train" really rocks, and the bass line on "damn right" is a killer. even the slow tunes are hot.if you are a hobbyist, this is a great collection of blues tunes to play along to. also great for listening to in the car by yourself- where you can play it LOUD !!!!!

Buddy's Bad.......................2004-11-14

I just bought Buddy's Baddest: The Best Of Buddy Guy at fye music for $20. I really did'nt care about the price because I had already previewed the songs at fye and new this album stood presence of greatness like Buddy Guy. This is my first buddy guy album I have been for so long been listening to Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan never came across Buddy until now........... The first track Damn Right, I've Got The Blues is just an amazing track filled with so much potenial, soul, and power in Buddy's guitar solo. And I have to say all of the tracks have buddy guy playing some great guitar solo's which is what us guitar, blues fans want right? I also liked Rememberin'Stevie. This album is a must have. Buddy Guy can really play!

It's good to have all of Thorogood's biggest hits in one place, but Baddest is pretty skimpy on the perennial album-radio cuts, substituting bonus tracks and second-line material. "Ride On Josephine," for example, isn't here. Neither are Chuck Berry's "No Particular Place to Go," "Night Time," and a number of other staples. More suspicious still, "Bad to the Bone" appears with a new remix. Hmm. Looks like someone's leaving some slack for a Volume 2. Since the Thorogood catalog is fairly big, it wouldn't pay to track down his highlights album-by-album, but the Live CD will set you up pretty well. --Gavin McNett

Customer Reviews:

THIS ALBUM IS GEORGE THOROGOOD AT HIS BADDEST........2007-02-05

Readers and reviewers, I will be writing a review on the legendary compilation album entitled "THE BADDEST OF GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS" by one of Rock's greatest bands and one of America's greatest sons. I give you one of Delaware's pride and joy's, MR. GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS. This compilation album was originally released in 1992 on Compact Disc on the EMI Records label which is manufactured by Capitol Records. As always, if I hear any new additional information concerning this legendary compilation album or the artist, I will edit this review immediately so that you the consumer will get the best informative and most accurate review possible.

GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS will forever go down in Rock n' Roll history for bringing back the true spirit of the 50's Rock n' Roll music. This legendary band actually rocks in the tradition of CHUCK BERRY, BO DIDDLEY, JOHN LEE HOOKER AND ELMORE JAMES. When THOROGOOD plays his blistering guitar, his guitar riffs and licks are taken straight out of 50's Chicago Blues and Rock n' Roll. In my opinion, this compilation album is GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS at their absolute best.

I will list and briefly review certain song tracks that are vital, relevent and of importance to this review. All of the song tracks contained on this legendary compilation album are all good. It is hard to choose one song track over the other in this compilation album. But in order to shorten this review, I will only list and briefly review the song tracks in their original exact running order as follows: (1.) "Bad To The Bone," (This is a well recorded Rocker that brings back the true spitit of the 50's Rock n' Roll music. As you all may well remember, this legendary song was played in the movies THE TERMINATOR II and CHRISTINE. THOROGOOD plays his guitar with such craft and skill that he would have made his fellow guitar heroes proud. This song really kicks a*s.) (2.) "Move It On Over," (This Rocker kicks a*s as well. I love the way THOROGOOD plays his riffs and licks in this Rocker. THOROGOOD shows no mercy in this number.) (4.) "You Talk Too Much," (This Rocker kicks a*s the way a Rocker is suppose to. THOROGOOD NEVER lets up in this Rocker. THOROGOOD plays his guitar like there's no tomorrow.) (5.) "Who Do You Love," (This is a great tribute to MR. BO DIDDLEY. This Rocker kicks a*s. THOROGOOD plays lead and rhythm guitar with such power and grace that he will leave you begging for more.) (8.) "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer," (This Rocker contains almost nine minutes of some of the greatest Rock n' Roll music and guitar playing that you have ever heard. This Rockin' song, like all the other songs, kicks a*s. THOROGOOD does not let up in this Rocker. THOROGOOD plays his blistering guitar like he is taking you on a journey with him to the crossroads. THOROGOOD dares you or anybody else to try to outplay him.) (9.) "If You Don't Start Drinkin' (I'm Gonna Leave)," (This is another well recorded THOROGOOD Rocker that kicks a*s. THOROGOOD plays his guitar with such confidence that he dares to play to your face. THOROGOOD does not let up in this Rocker either.) (10.) "Treat Her Right" (This is another well recorded THOROGOOD Rocker that kicks a*s. This Rocker also brings back the true spirit of 50's Rock n' Roll music. THOROGOOD dares to give you his all with his blistering guitar playing and his breathtaking guitar solo during this number.) and (11.) "Long Gone." (This is another THOROGOOD Rocker that kicks a*s. THOROGOOD NEVER lets up and he proves it while playing his blistering guitar during this Rocker.) Believe me when I tell you that all of the song tracks contained on this legendary compilation album are nothing short of outstanding. Overall, this is one hell of an album that really truly kicks a*s.

I would like to highly recommend that everybody buy this legendary compilation album for everyone to own as a valuable and important part of their own personal music collection. This legendary compilation album will stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER.

In closing, GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS are here to stay. This legendary band will always bring back the true spirit of the 50's Rock n' Roll music and I feel confident that as long as THOROGOOD is still around performing, the 50's music will live on forever and will never be forgotten. So Here's to you GEORGE and your band THE DESTROYERS. Keep Persevering. Keep The Faith. Keep On Rockin'. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N' ROLL HISTORY," am I wrong? Thanks for reading my review and I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also hope that you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. GEORGE THOROGOOD RULES. Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever in Rock, John L.

No scuzzy dive would be complete.......2006-05-07

To this day, every time I hear "One Bourbon...", I remember the time at a honky-tonk in Lubbock, TX I simultaneously saw: 1) a guy throwing up in the corner, 2) a guy breaking a beer bottle over another guy's head, and 3) George howling away on the juke.

Good times.

BAD FOR GOOD!.......2005-10-26

Wild Bill, a good party-hearty buddy of mine used to keep only three CDs in his Corvette for cruisin' to: THE BEST OF THE BLUES BROTHERS, JIMMY BUFFET'S GREATEST HITS, and this anthology of Delaware's best known Destroyer of boogie n' blooze. "What else do you need?", he'd grin. What else indeed? For straight ahead, pedal to the metal, sweaty, ready-steady-go rock n' roll meant to be cranked to ozone shattering volumes, George is the man. Equal parts cocky gravel-pit vocalist, slippery slide grrr-tar mangler, and overgrown frat boy, Thorogood's musical approach is, to quote a Dave Edmunds album, "Subtle as a Flying Mallet". His rip off the knob takes on Hank Williams' MOVE IT ON OVER and John Lee Hooker's barstool classic ONE BOURBON, ONE SCOTCH, ONE BEER groove grandly alongside dyed in the wool originals BAD TO THE BONE and I DRINK ALONE, making THE BADDEST OF GEORGE THOROGOOD one of the goodest party excuses on record. Just ask my pal Wild Bill, if you can find 'im. RATING: FOUR BREWSKIS

Dirty Electric Blues!.......2005-07-08

What I like about George Thorogood is his attitude. It is what I always liked about early Rolling Stones. It is how blues should be played. Black and dirty.
I always liked One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer of John Lee Hooker, but I prefer George Thorogood cover more. Move It On Over is Hank Williams' cover, but it sounds like his original, just like Who Do You Love, originally written and recorded by Bo Diddley.
About songs like Bad To The Bone, I Drink Alone and If You Don't Start Drinkin' (I'm Gonna Leave) I think I don't need to write. They are already standards.
If you're new to electric blues or George Thorogood and The Destroyers you must buy this album.

Hes bad to the bone, but his guitar playings ****ing awesome.......2004-11-08

Ive seen people try and compare him to the likes of Jimmy page. But thats not what George Thorogood is all about. Hes about women, beer, baseball, music, and more than anything, just plain fun.
And thats exactly how he comes across. When he described himself as a burger bar, he meant it. He doesnt asked to be compared to any one else. Because the only reason he plays, is because HE LOVES IT.
If you like damn good blues, and you just want to chill, this is the one for you. Any time.
He riffs like anything, and the brilliant copies of 'one Bourbon, one Scotch, one Beer' and 'who do you love' will have you playing air guitar all night.

Da Saddest B****.......2007-02-07

I remember when I first heard heard Trina I couldnt help but wonder what was people's fascination with her? So what she makes raunchy records, the girl couldnt rap her way out of a flavored condom plus she sounds like a hood version of Edith from All In The Family. From where I from Trina is the most overrated female ever. This album is concrete proof of that statement. The first single The Baddest B**** is so cheesy it makes you wonder how this song became a hit. Pull Over , Off The Chain Wit it, Off Glass and I Dont Need You are extra cheesy to the point you might get constipated from the first listen. Other disposables: The Big Lick(Blah), Aint S***(a female version Of Dr. Dre's B***es Aint S***. How original), I'll Always(super stale plus she should be sued for screwing up Ronald Isley's Voyage To Atlantis), Watch Yo Back and the rest of this album.
Bottom Line: Trina's Da Baddest B**** is the worst female rap album next to the Notorious K.I.M. and Thug Misses. The beats suck, her lyrics sound like they were conceived in the mind of a tweenager and her voice is as painful as scratching a chalkboard with your fingernails. Lyrics like /Sisqo made that song/ when he seen me in a thong th th th thong show you that she puts the corn in corny! Da Baddest B**** more like Da Saddest B****!

trina.......2005-10-11

trina is not a dumb female rapper who just shows ass the gurl was doing the damn the thing ya know and no matter what u do u still gone get talked about but trina came to plate with this one lettung u know what its like to be B---- in control and she says what she feels and as a woman i appreciate her boldness

TRINA.......2005-10-03

now who does this girl/self confessed bitch think she is. She is a piece of trash. Download dis album cos it ain't worth buying. Bye a lil kim album or a foxy brown one.

I feel like throwin' up.......2005-08-21

A full review doesn't make too much sense considering the album cover and title. I never heard the whole album since I bought this in 2000, when I was still naive to the dirty south. I was a fan of scarface and outkast, I love miami so I gave this a try. I hated it then and I hate it now. I never got past the first 6 pieces of ear poison(notice I didn't say songs). Cause this isnt music. I know I said it before, but why would any woman want to consider herself a bitch? How could any woman enjoy listening to this self-degradation? I still don't know the reasons but considering her albums constantly sell there's a lot of women that feel the same. The same way how you women wonder is there any good men out here, is the same how men like me wonder is there any good women. And judgeing by your favorite rappers and role models, I can safely say there is'nt too many. Buy this album only if your new to this music genre, the front cover looks funny, or your mind is in the gutter. Cause in my opinion, only a lowlife can enjoy this.

SHE WAS AN INSURANCE AGENT!! SHE IS SMART!!!.......2005-07-15

HOW CAN SHE BE IN THE BOTTOM 10% OF HER CLASS!
SHE WAS AN INSURANCE AGENT WITH A LICENSE TO SELL REAL ESTATE!
HOW CAN SHE BE DUMB??

ANYWAY, THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE CD'S!
EVERY SONG IS GREAT!
TRINA IS A WONDERFUL PERSON!

Album Description

"With each visit to Chicago ... Joey DeFrancesco seems to attain another, still-more-remarkable degree of technical fl uidity." -- Chicago Tribune "Joey DeFrancesco is rightfully known as an incredibly talented organ player. He's got an array of solid CDs that document his rise to the top. He can fi t into any setting, from hard bop to the electronic funk of 1980s Miles Davis. He can swing a room of lead balloons ... He's had the audacity to usurp his idol, the legendary Jimmy Smith, atop annual critics' polls ... [and] critics and observers say he's responsible for the re-birth of the Hammond B-3 and organ music's place in jazz." -- All About Jazz "The music of Joey DeFrancesco--an important force in the revival of the Hammond B-3 organ as a jazz instrument--runs the gamut from soul-jazz and bluesy grooves à la Jimmy Smith to hard bop to the more advanced modal style of John Coltrane disciple Larry Young."-- All Music Guide "No less signifi cant in the story of Joey's ascendancy is the ability he has shown to create excitement. The tension he is capable of building brings back to mind a tradition that began some fifty years ago, when Norman Granz's Jazz at the Philharmonic concerts began stirring up audiences around the country." -- Leonard Feather

· Combining monstrous chops with a fl air for showmanship and an unquenchable urge to burn, Joey DeFrancesco almost single-handedly put the Hammond B-3 back in the public eye. Today, organ afi cionados regard him as the "baddest B-3 burner in the business." a claim supported by his fi ve consecutive Down Beat Critics Poll Awards. · With over twenty solo releases and historic associations with legends such as Miles Davis, Jimmy Smith, Bobby Hutcherson, Elvin Jones, and John McLaughlin, DeFrancesco's place in the idiom's history is cemented. · Joey DeFrancesco has come a long way since All of Me, his recording debut as a leader made in 1989 as a fresh-faced seventeen-year-old. From the get-go, the Philadelphia native established his credentials with virtuoso technique and an innate soulfulness that he brought to bear on the hulking Hammond B-3 organ. · Through the 1990s, DeFrancesco was widely recognized as spearheading a renewed interest in the Hammond organ, an instrument that had fallen out of favor among musicians and the public since its golden period during the 1960s and early '70s.

Although billed as a solo performer, Rick James is joined by the ever-talented Teena Marie for the gorgeous cut "Happy" and other genuine gems include Eddie Kendricks's 1978 hit "Intimate Friends" and fellow ex-Temptation David Ruffin's "Just Let Me Hold You for a Night"--which alone is worth the price of the entire CD. A superb compilation. --David Nathan

starting off with Smokey Robinson's Quiet Storm this disc is blazing.Switch doing I wanna be closer.and of Course The Genius of Rick James&Teena Marie doing Happy.that jam is still tight.Distant Lover by the Genius Mind Of Marvin Gaye.this set has so many great artists&songs.

Excellent compilation of rare/not so rare Motown jams........2000-01-19

Let the ol'skooler skool ya--this is worth 10 Amazon.com 5-Star ratings. Many folks would be glad to get that Switch tune, "I Wanna Be Closer" and the Commodores and Lionel Richie at his philosophical best in "Zoom" both on one CD...but wait! There's more! Some say it's not possible to have this much joy in one package...i say the CD is slammin, timeless, with the man who is pure geniussmokey robinson on quiet storm...uh, excuseme, that's just not the way we do things here in Oz. Ultra-rare, indeed, is the smooth Dynamic Superiors with a lost 45s tune--by that I mean everybody you knew must've had a 45s rpm record copy of "Shoe Shoe Shine" (Useta cost a dime, a penny would buy you plenty) and either lost it or someone took it...but, look it is here in this great collection! Plus--!,Plus---! The immortal Eddie Kendricks does a tune from a "pre-Truckin'" album (I think it was the LP, "My People, Hold On"--if anyone knows for sure, please feel free to comment), with a groove surely designed to feel just like after intimacy:"Intimate Friends" allowed many strangers to be just that. And wait another minute! You have the dueling duets of James/Marie vs Gaye/Terrell in,respectively, "Happy" and "Your Precious Love"...notice: neither tagteam budges an inch! Classix Motown is well represented with "Fork in the Road" by The Miracles and "Silly Wasn't I" from a Val Simpson solo project done way, way before she and Kick Ashford did "Is It Still Good To Ya". Marvin's original "Distant Lover" and the Tempt's "Heavenly" are two other highlights of this excellent CD--I've gotta hand it to the powers that be which put this one out. All playing aside, this is put together just right! Get it before it's gone!

MC 5 - 'Human Being Lawnmower:The Baddest&Maddest Of The MC 5' (Total Energy).......2006-03-29

Fourteen track compilation pretty much for the completists only.Not a bad collection,it's just that many long-time MC5 fans will likely already have most,if not all these cuts.Several that I liked best were the heavy rocker "Looking At You","Rama La Fa Fa Fa",the studio out-take for "American Ruse" and the 19-minute epic,drawn out "I'm Mad Like Eldridge Cleaver".Semi-recommended.However,I would first listen to sound clips off this disc where ever you could find some,then make your decision from there.

Great One Disc Album.............2005-03-21

However the release of the new "Purity, Accuracy" 6 cd box renders this album pretty much obsolete. The music here is great and the sound quality is very good; but most, if not all, the tracks here are included in the box set. If you already own all the official releases, as well as the "Big Bang: Best Of" album, my advice would be to take a pass here and save your bucks for the "Purity" box. If you're on a tight budget and just need more MC5, then this release will satisfy.

Brothers & Sisters, the MC5!.......2003-02-28

Everyone is familiar by now with the legendary legacy of the MC5. As agit-prop band for the White Panther Party, they smashed the unstated taboo against an overt political stance within a rock 'n' roll framework. Subsequent bands like Clash, the D.K.'s, and R.A.T.M. owe much to these trailblazers.
My husband, who was down with the White Panthers when he was a kid, points to this collection as perhaps the best from the John Sinclair archives. I agree. Certainly the sound is far better than usual, with some terrific live outtakes from Jams. I Believe To My Soul is a standout, along with the alternate M.C. Is Burning and the J.B. medley. The rantings of W.P.P. "spiritual advisor" Jesse Crawford are much appreciated, including his support of the Zenta Commandments...
White Panther Chairman John Sinclair is present for some stoned saxophone ramblings on the crazed improv I'm Mad Like Eldridge Cleaver. Remember Eldridge from the good old days when he was the eloquent Minister of Info for Black Panther Party before he lost his mind and became a born-again Republican? At any rate, this is a solid collection for fans of this great band, and stands as an excellent companion piece to their three classic albums.

One of the better postumous MC5 releases........2002-06-11

The problem with these rarities compilations of the MC5 and the Stooges is they usually just coast on the band's legend while releasing [poor] quallity live recordings and demos. The new MC5 retro is a rare exception. While it may not be as essential as "Babes In Arms" this one does have excellent quallity out takes & altrernitive takes from "KIck Out the Jams"! That same show produced a cover of Ray Charles' "I believe to my soul" which, up until now, has not even been availible as a bootleg! (Other outkates from "Jams" not yet availible are "looking at you", "black to comm" and Screamin' Jay's "I put a spell on you.") Also, you get the alts of "Moter City's burnin'" and "rama lama fa faf fa". The rest of the CD is more or less the usual mediocer stuff usually associated with comps like these but die hard MC5 fans (like myself) will want this for the "Jams" outtakes. You'll be so pleased with those you'll forgive the rest of the album.

Trina's Nasty Little Surprise.......2000-08-22

Although sometimes vile and incredibly offensive to women everywhere, Trina's single, "Da Baddest..." was a surprisingly good track. I found myself tapping my toes while laughing hysterically to her frank and explicit approach to her escapades. Not for the weak at heart.
