Further, Elektra "didn't like the wide stereo spread, so they wanted to put it out in mono.". (That would affect the width of the grooves and thus also improve the playability of the LP.). As a result, the trio was asked to delete two songs from each side of the disc for the reissue.

Reviews"...The depth of country blues knowledge, feeling, and expression displayed by these young white Northerners is startling, surpassing much of the work of today's acoustic revivalists...", "They injected punk-style vim and humour into covering heroes Leadbelly and Sleepy John Estes, while firing up their own spirited homages.", "...Koerner, Ray & Glover are remarkable in the instrumental and vocal skills they brought to a traditional music form that was not of their own culture, but which they had already made their own...", 4.5 Stars - Good/Very Good - "...Koerner and Ray are gifted acoustic guitarists, creating an imposing lattice of embroidered scales and bends, and they bring personality and emotional honesty to their singing. Tony `Little Son' Glover informs his vocal and harmonica playing with a rare intelligence....fresh and vibrant music...", 4 Stars - Excellent - "...remains the most significant album of the early '60s American white blues boom....The instrumental interplay between Koerner and Ray's acoustic guitars and Glover's harmonica is never less than engrossing and often exhilarating...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "In concert segments and interviews, the three musicians reveal themselves to be free spirits hip to the zeitgeist of the time."
