Albert Lee: Black Claw & Country Fever

German relase with a collection of late-'60s material from multi-talented English guitarist, producer, and sessionman Albert Lee's groups Black Claw and Country Fever, with covers of "Look out Cleveland" from The Band and "Tears of Rage" from Music from Big Pink, the latter originally released as a US single with Lee's band Country Fever in 1969.

An Albert Lee version of "Tears of Rage" can also be found on the German compilation CD Copy Cats - Line's Greatest Dylans (Various Artists, 1991, Line VVCD 9.01128L), a Dylan cover album with Mitch Ryder, Link Wray, Wilko Johnson, Mike Harrison, Nice, Cold Chisel, Albert Lee, and others.

Another compilation drawing on the same material, titled That's All Right Mama, was released in 2003. In addition to the two Band covers on Black Claw & Country Fever, it also includes a version of "Across the Great Divide."
