The Amboy Dukes (album)

The album is noted for containing an energetic recording of Joe Williams' blues standard "Baby, Please Don't Go",[2] as well as covers of Pete Townshend's composition "It's Not True", and Cream's "I Feel Free".

[1] AllMusic said that the album fused "the psychedelia of the early Blues Magoos with Hendrix riffs and British pop" and described the song "Colors" as psychedelic hard rock.

[1] The publication compared "Down on Philips Escalator" to Syd Barrett-period Pink Floyd, and said that "The Lovely Lady" "almost sounds like the Velvet Underground meets the Small Faces by way of Peanut Butter Conspiracy.

[1] Ultimate Classic Rock said that the album received "little, if any, fanfare outside of [the band's] home base of Detroit".

[...] This is a far cry from Cat Scratch Fever, and that's why fans of psychedelia and '60s music should cherish this early diamond.
