Steamroller Blues

The song later appeared on two of Taylor's compilation albums and has been recorded by a variety of other artists.

"[1] Rolling Stone Album Guide critic Mark Coleman, said Taylor's song "effectively mocks the straining pomposity of then-current white bluesmen.

"[2] Taylor and Danny Kortchmar, both playing electric guitars, laid down the track in one night at Sunset Studios, the rhythm section being added later.

A tight budget and production schedule forced Taylor to record the song despite suffering from a head cold.

[3] The song was included on Taylor's diamond-selling Greatest Hits 1976 compilation using a live version recorded in August 1975 at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles.
