See For Miles reissued two albums Jimmy Reed recorded in the late '60s, New Jimmy Reed Album and Soulin', on a single CD in 1997. While both records have their moments, they are bogged down by a production that tries to move Reed into the blues-rock era. Consequently, the album is primarily of interest to completists, since even hardcore Reed fans may find the production disconcerting. - Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine.
