He Let's it Flow.......2007-05-13
Dave Mason is my favorite singer/songwriter and this CD doesn't disappoint. Always a treat to listen to him perform.
Tremendous remaster job.......2006-10-25
I of course realy like both of these albums, I had both of them on vinyl back in the 70's.
I also think "Alone Together" is Dave's finest hour. But "It's Like You Never Left" is a great album in it's own right. And "Dave Mason" is a very good one. The version of All Along The Watchtower rivals the one by Hendrix. Remember, Dave Mason played on the original Jimi Hendix version of the Dylan classic.
But the unbelievable added bonus here is that Steve Hoffman did the remaster work. Hoffman is the best that there is at remastering albums, hands down the best.
So sonicly this remaster is outstanding.
If you like Dave Mason, grab this before it's gone. These 2 for 1 cd's are very rarely reprinted.
Brings back the good ole days .......2006-03-16
A great compilation of two great albums, with plenty of memories of the old days when rock/blues were still considered cool. Now, we just need to convince the makers to remaster "Dave Mason Live," and all will be well with the world. A must for those that long for the days when we could just groove to the music and let our mind float along to the tunes. Don't miss this one!!
IT S' LIKE YOU NEVER LEFT IS MASON S' BEST CD!.......2005-12-10
For me, i remenber this cd because the haunting song "The Lonely One"; a song that features a beautiful armonica playing and delicate guitar playing. Also on this cd are other great songs such as the title cut, "Mistic Stranger" and "Every Woman". It is great to have two cds on one. "It s like you never left" is a very good record with very good songs and for me it is his best recorded work along with some songs of "Split Coconut" especially "Long Lost Friend" and "You can Loose it"
puttin' on the squeeze.......2005-09-13
How did Dave Mason manage to squeeze two albums onto only one CD? Well, it's easy when both recordings lack instrumental and lyrical substance. Lacking are the sort of epic rock numbers Mason laid down in 1970 when 'Alone Together' became the artist's standard bearer, songs such as 'Only You Know and I Know', 'Waiting On You', and 'Shouldn't Have Took More Than You Gave'. While Mason is also a master of the soft, acoustic ballad, also highlighted on 'Alone Together' by numbers such as 'Just a Song', Mason relegated far too much of his creative energy to that genre by the time 'It's Like You Never Left' was recorded in 1973, and 'Dave Mason' followed in 1974.
That's not to say there isn't some excellent songwriting, classic performances, heralded guests, and even an occasional foray into searing hard rock interspersed over the 19 tracks. In fact, you could put together one pretty awesome CD with 'Baby...Please' and the short version of 'Every Woman' (both featuring Graham Nash on back up vocals), two songs featuring an appealing George Harrison-like slide guitar sound ('If You've Got Love' and 'Show Me Some Affection'), the closers from each album (the jazz-fusion title track from 'It's Like You Never Left', and the rocking 'You Can't Take It When You Go'), two covers from 'Dave Mason', 'Bring It On Home To Me' (a Mason in-concert staple) and the searing classic 'All Along the Watchtower'. 'Headkeeper' again features Graham Nash and some decent lead guitar chops from Mason, and 'The Lonely One' simmers like an offspring of 'Shouldn't Have Took More Than You Gave', and features a unique harmonica from Stevie Wonder, an instrument not often heard on Dave Mason recordings.
Many of the remaining tracks, including 'Maybe', 'Silent Partner', 'Get Ahold On Love', the expanded version of 'Every Woman' (better instrumentally, but sans Nash's irreplacable vocal contribution), 'Harmony & Melody', and 'Relation Ships' blend into the soft-rock sonic landscape all too readily, and offer even less distinction lyrically. At times the lyrics are simply confusing, such as on 'Silent Partner' where we are confronted with "Paranoia is the voyeur", or simply empty, such as on 'Misty Morning Stranger' when Mason admits, "It's hard to explain what I'm feeling". 'Misty Morning Stranger' offers the diversion of a brassy foundation and electric guitar finish, while 'Side Tracked' is unique as a bluesy electric jam, but it's not enough to overcome the soft-pop feel of the majority of the double disc.
The entirety of 'It's Like You Never Left' was penned by Mason, but 'Dave Mason' ironically includes several covers. In addition to Bob Dylan's 'All Along the Watchtower', the disc includes another staple from Mason's concerts, Sam Cooke's 'Bring It On Home To Me'. While it's a nice cover, well-suited to Mason's style, you have to wonder why Dave would choose this track when something meatier was lacking from the menu. The other cover, 'It Can't Make Any Difference To Me' is another perplexing choice, revealing little that is new to the Mason canon.
The 'Dave Mason' disc is unique in that it marks the beginning of the Jim Krueger era in Mason's career. Krueger became a fixture on Mason's works during the 1970's and 80's, occasionally penning a tune or vocals, and lending a great deal of exquisite guitar playing. Krueger may be a better guitarist than Mason in a technical sense, but Mason has a style and feel that is all his own, and it's missing on tracks such as 'Harmony & Melody' where Dave defers the lead to Krueger. Perhaps this was the price for bringing Krueger into the fold, but it isn't a price worth paying, IMHO.
This disc comes nicely packaged, including mini-replica's of the front and back covers from each disc, and the printed lyrics from 'It's Like You Never Left'. Although even Dave Mason fans may find themselves scanning for the best tracks, there is sufficient essential material here to render the recording a 'must-have'. For the more casual fan, only 'Alone Together' and a Mason compilation disc are required.

Customer Reviews:
Unearth this classic!.......2001-09-18
When it came out in '73, my friends and I would play air guitar and sing our hearts out to this record. Never got it on CD and hadn't heard it for years until recently and it has lost none of it's appeal. Great collection of songs with a real spirituality behind them--the power of love mostly--written and performed with passion, grit, and no irony! Stevie Wonder guests with a fabulous harmonica on "The Lonely One." We need more records like this now. Thank you, Dave Mason.
My Dave Mason Story.......2000-07-09
Twenty one years ago, after I had been married a year, I fell in love with another man. We never breached the line of monogomy, so when he asked me to leave my husband and move away with him, I didn't think he was serious. He told me he had a song to play for me. He never played it. He moved, I stayed. Three grown children for me and two grown children for him and with the very sparce contact we've had with each other throughout the years, he finally told me the title of the song. It was "Maybe" by Dave Mason. I bought the CD without ever hearing any of the songs. When I listened to it for the first time, I felt as if someone had reached in my chest, grabbed my heart and squeezed it. Although we live 1,000 miles away from each other, our lives seem to have come full circle. I am forever/still in love with this man. Now, maybe anything HE wants me to I'll be....
p.s. The other songs are just gravy... truely sung from the heart... wonderful!
It's Like You Never Left.......2000-05-30
what an excellent record. i looked for this title on cd for years & could never find it. this has to be dave's greatest record ever. one rocks'most underated guitarists'. if you've ever seen him live you know what i mean. graham nash's harmony vocals are superb & the "son of harry" slide guitar on "if you've got love" is as good as it gets, because it's george harrison long time friend of daves'. get this cd & play the heck out of it.
Terrific album by an under-rated artist.......1999-09-13
Dave Mason somehow got lost in the shuffle of his on-again, off-again relationship with Steve Winwood and Traffic. And then he had a rough relationship with the Blue Thumb label, although Alone Together is an absolute classic.
When he got out from under all that Dave Mason next showed up on the Columbia label, with It's Like You Never Left. What a great surprise this was. Guest vocals from Graham Nash, great guitar work throughout. Stevie Wonder too!
And the songs are great. Maybe and Every Woman are two beautiful love songs. Headkeeper, in another incarnation, as good as the Blue Thumb version. Misty Morning Stranger, one of my all-time favorites. And one day I'd love to hear the full version of Side Tracked, a little gem of an instrumental.
I played cuts from this album all the time on my college radio show nearly 30 years ago, and for me, it's one of the best albums of the 70s. A small treasure, to be sure, but a treasure just the same.
One of the best records I have ever owned!.......1999-04-03
What a find! Thanks, Amazon! Now I can listen to "Maybe" and all of my other favorites anytime I want to! My album was loaned out and I never got it back..I replaced it with the casette and wore it out..now I will have the CD!!

Customer Reviews:
you need this CD.......2000-10-03
What a bargain! This has to be the top double album/single CD since Robin Trower's "Bridge of Sighs/Twice Removed From Yesterday."
Many people think of Dave Mason, when they think of him at all, as a guy strumming acoustic guitar and playing occasional harmonica in the background of Traffic records. Maybe you remember that he wrote "Feeling Alright," but you might forget "Pearly Queen" which was a much better song. Actually, Mason was a superb singer, songwriter, and guitarist.
What else do you get? Merely both versions of the lovely "Every Woman," the laid-back, persuasive instrumental "Side Tracked," an alternate version of "Headkeeper," a great take on "All Along the Watchtower" and "It's Like You Never Left." The rest of the CD is merely very good.
It would be worth paying list for this CD for either of these albums, especially "Dave Mason," and that one would be worth buying for just two cuts: "You Can't Take It When You Go," with its remarkable swirling guitars, and "Bring It On Home" with wonderful major-key blues riffs--by the second guitarist, by the way.
I'm just sorry I've already got the "Dave Mason" album on CD--if I didn't have it, I could buy this one and save a little money as well as some space in my drawer.
