was recorded prematurely. 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.

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

“Keep On Moving” suffers
from being repetitious. 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. In fact, all the songs are
enjoyable or at least have some
