feel it!

The Elvin Bishop Group's 1970 sophomore effort Feel It! is is a cornerstone of the still-vital blues career of Elvin Bishop, a man who always let the good times roll. With David Rubinson again producing, the band’s personnel had been expanded to include vocalist Jo Baker, and the Pointer Sisters, Patricia, June and Anita—soon to top the charts with their own soulful blend—were hired to sing backup vocals. Bishop contributes his unique set of pipes to “So Fine,” a gospel-tinged, Johnny Otis-penned 1959 doo wop hit by the Fiestas. And Bishop’s ubiquitous guitar leads on Feel It! are, as always, well-paced and razor-sharp.
