Continuing with our Top 10 Climax Blues Band Songs list, we listen to the great spirited song “Using the Power.” The song was released on the 1975 album The Stamp Album.

This is such a feel-good song. It’s one of those lost summer songs. The song “Summer Rain” was released on the album Reel To Reel, which was released in 1979. What’s very strange is the song was never released as a single. I’m not sure why, but if they had, I really believe this one would have been a big hit.

We close out our Top 10 Climax Blues Band Songs list with their most popular song “Couldn’t Get It Right.” This is the one that everybody knows. It’s pretty much an outlier on their catalog because they were not really a hit singles band, with the exception of this one and “I Love You. Is this their best song? Well, of course, that is subjective, b...
