The new band had not had enough time to work things out right and it showed. The band did not jell until the release of their fourth album, “In My Own Dream.” It is the definitive But terfield with horns album. In this, their fifth album, Butterfield has evolved even further. The basic 12-bar blues structure has all but disappeared. In its place is a sound closer to that of soul rec ordings from Stax and to that of Chicago blues. Of course, the motivation remains unchanged. It’s still the blues. redeeming quality to them. It’s the sameness when taken as a whole that makes the album suf fer. Butterfield’s new album will scarcely revolutionize the world of popular music. It’s not really a necessity for the popular music aesthetic. It is good, and is of crucial value to pop music, par ticularly blues music, antholo gists. Air Force Capt. Louis G. Horn, 1966 A&M graduate and son of Mr. ^nd Mrs. Louis J.

All the ar rangements sound alike. It takes quite a few listenings before the tunes assume an individual iden tity. After one is able to distin guish one song from another, however, there’s some excellent music to discover. “Love Disease” and “Where Did My Baby Go” are good raucous quasi-blues rockers featuring strident horn and guitar solos, respectively. “Keep On Moving” and “Except You” are poignant ballads. “Walking By Myself” is an ade quate cover of the old Jimmie Rodgers classic and “Losing Hand” is a powerful blues num ber in the tradition of “Just to Be With You” from the last al bum.
