Jeremy Spencer was one of the original members of Fleetwood Mac. On their early albums he mostly performed Elmore James covers, or variations of that theme, and when Peter Green and Danny Kirwin led the band into more experimental territories, he found himself left behind. In concert, the band's set would be divided between intense jams with Green and Kirwin and raucous 50s rock and roll with Spencer (this can be heard on the Live In Boston albums).
When he contributed nothing to the band's magnum opus Then Play On (apart from piano on one song), they had planned to release an EP of his own songs to go with it, but it never happened. Instead he released this solo album the next year, backed by the band he was still part of (though apparently Peter Green only played on one song).
It was a collection of blues and rock and roll parodies - Spencer was always good at mimicry. However this certain element of humour (best shown on "Mean Blues", where he effectively parodies his own band) didn't detract from the quality of the music. The songs were great and the performances top notch. He obviously had a lot of love for these styles, and truth be told they were more homages than parodies, albeit all done with his tounge firmly planted in his cheek. Along with his take on the British blues boom, he also tried his hand at Buddy Holly, Bo Diddley, Elvis Presley impersonations among others. The music is surprisingly good, resulting in a fantastic (and great fun) album. As noted above, his styles within this album are littered across the first few Fleetwood Mac albums ....Highly reccomended!

Jeremy Spencer mysteriously vanished before a Fleetwood Mac gig in 1971, and was found days later to have joined the religious group the Children Of God, and declared he did not want to be part of the band anymore.
