 Buddy Miles Live Review
Miles reformed The Buddy Miles Express and recorded the legendary album, "Them Changes." 1979 saw Miles beginning a four year gig, as the lead singer, with Carlos Santana.
I ask one of Buddy’s entourage, " Is he as nice in person as he seems on stage?" He answers me with "Yes, he really is." The set ends at 11:00pm to a now full house of fans ranging in age from twenty one to fifty plus.
Buddy's out front again, guitar in hand (a lefty...how about that) and is doing a Hendrix inspired "Miss Suga' Fine", that he wrote about his wife Sherrilae.

 Them Changes - Buddy Miles - Song Listings
This 1970 release by former Band of Gypsy's drummer Buddy Miles is, quite simply, one of the great lost treasures of soul inspired rock music.
Not only does Miles prove himself to be a great interpretor of songs, but with the title track and "Heart's Delight," he demonstrates his ability to write solid material on his own.
Complimented by the Memphis Horns, Miles' songs soar and swing as hard as any Stax release, and his voice, underutilized when he played with the Electric Flag and Hendrix, combines the nuance of soul singing with the grit of rock.

It's interesting that Buddy is perhaps a more impressive singer than instrumentalist, and this thought does point to two missing ballads which would have brought this review to a *five*, namely, "I Still Love You, Anyway" from the "Them Changes" album, and "Last Words Of Love", from "More Miles Per Gallon".
