The Most Influential White Blues Player Ever---Michael Bloomfield
by NeverEverButNowThe Paul Butterfield Blues Band from Chicago and the Blue Project from New York were considered the hippest avant-garde bands from the mid-60's. Look back in 1965 and what do you have?-- the end of the Phil Spector wall-of-sound L.A. divas, the full throttle influx of the British invasion, the peak of surf sound with The Beach Boys, the neo-folk vanguard in full blossom, and the seeds of new L.A music like The Buffalo Springfield and The Byrds. But experimental rock jams based in blues, later influenced by psychadelia, began with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and was echoed by The Blues Project. The drummer and bass player were borrowed from Howlin Wolf, and Michael Bloomfield tutored himself as a teenager from the blues greats in Chicago, and who else played the harmonica and sang better than Paul Butterfield? To understand the era, think about Bob Dylan the greatest folk hipster but who wanted to go electric. Whom did he call to launch is band at Newport? Mike Bloomfield! And that killed the neo-folk movement! Do you love the free-wheelin jams of The Grateful Dead? Well, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band started it all. It is so fitting that in the late 60's, Al Kooper from The Blues Project and Mike Bloomfield created SUPER SESSION. But Bloomfield's demons (the failure of his father to understand him and his misunderstandings of art and commerce) drove him to heroin, and after 1970, his prowess and musical abilities faded till his death in 1981. But here it is, one of the greatest albums of the 60's. Get over the quality of the recording and just listen to the music. It is fantastic!!!
Very Underated
by vicknerI really love this album. It is well worth it to buy this album just for East-West. Mike Bloomfield at his very best
R.I.P. Mike, you will not be forgotten.
