Paul Butterfield stands as the lastremaining original member of his namesake collective on Keep onMoving. It's hard to imagine it being any other way. Picking up whereit left off on In My Own Dream, the BUTTERFIELD BLUES BAND whollyembraces R&B fervor - and indirectly dares any horn-accompaniedensemble of the era to match it's energy, pulse, tightness, and flair.While going all-in on soul with a crack support cast on this 1969 set,Butterfield would pull the plug on the band just two years later. Thegroup's pursuit of funky, bluesy paths carved by rolling bass lines,stacked horns, buttoned-up rhythms, and harmonica blasts almostmakes that decision unthinkable.Sourced from the original analog master tapes and housed in amini-LP-style gatefold package, Mobile Fidelity's hybrid SACDmakes Keep on Moving available in audiophile quality. Open andbalanced, it underlines the dynamic liveliness and organic feel ofJerry Ragovoy's production. As well as the palpable chemistry ofthe sessions recorded at his then-brand-new Hit Factory studioin New York. The prominence and positioning of the horn section- comprised of a young David Sanborn, Gene Dinwiddie, TrevorLawrence, Keith Johnson, and Steve Madaio - particularly benefitfrom the newfound transparency and presence. This reissue's clarityalso exposes key details, accents, and textures germane to themusic. Keep on moving, indeed.
