Reviews

  • THE Original

    You can make a bunch of arguments about who was the first hot "white-boy" blues guitarist...but when you eliminate that group "across the pond", clearly in the U.S. it has to be just one---Mr. Michael Bloomfield! These tracks illustrate not only his proficiency, but a gritty tone that would have him easily sitting alongside any of the Chess blues greats. The Brits mirrored the blues and turned up the volume, but Bloomfield encapsulated all facets of the American blues genre.
  • Quit Whining About Itunes And Just Buy This

    If you don’t own this, along with “East-West” you have no clue as to who started the entire guitar-hero movement. Note: RIP to the drummer Sam Lay who passed away recently.
  • Goodbye Paul Revere...

    In 1966, prior to my introduction to this album, Paul Revere and the Raiders was likely my favorite band. Truly life changing in more ways than I can count...
  • Saw them live at the Cafe au Go Go NYC 1965

    This album brought me to them BUT, you should have seen this band LIVE! Bloomfield, Bishop, Butterfield and the killer rythm section; Lay and Arnold
  • Wow! I'm blown away.

    Ron McKernan showing up with this LP in his clutches at a hang-out in Palo Alto, in 1965 I suppose. He put in on the turntable and changed our musical world.
  • The Problem with iTunes, CD's etc is:

    Little things that you just don't find out that are on the original vinyl. Like where it says " "We suggest that you play this record at the highest possible volume in order to fully appreciate the sound of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band." Liner notes are priceless sociological insight into the band and the times in which the original music was published. It is a shame that the same sort of thing is not available digitally. The band however is just as great on iTunes as it is on vinyl- just remember to play it loud for full appreciation.
  • Butterfield , Yeah!!!

    This is timeless, and forever great and iconic music as I remember it.

    Agreeing with the reviews here! This album was given to me in 1966 by a boyfriend who played in a Blues band. Yep, white kids in the Chicago 'burbs. I bought the CD, now some iTunes, and I still think this album is incredibly good. (No doubt Blues Bro John Belushi had this album, too.) Tip: If you like this, Eric Clapton's "Sweet Home Chicago" is a must.
  • Yeah...
