  • I caught Bloomfield in '68 w. BST at the Fillmore East. In turn, I caught Winter live at an outdoor venue called Forrest Hills with his band in '68 as well.

    Wonderful memories of two solid musicians.

    If memory serves...I caught Cream at MSG in '68 on their farewell tour. I was gloriously busy in '68.

  • Mike Bloomfield suffered clinical depression at one point after watching Cream. He was certainly not the best; however Winter just might be.

  • Introduced to Mike Bloomfield and the Paul Butterfield Blues Band East/West album waaaaayyyyy back when by my pal "Fitzie". Mike was a king and a leader. Back in '65 he was a light! His work with Butter, Dylan (!!!!!), the Electric Flag and Al Kooper left us such a legacy. If you dig this style of blues check out our site on youtube as well--johnnyguitar335

  • @whocares1694 I was there too...and Mike explained that he had to fly out...and told us that a friend was coming out to jam tonight and fill in for him the next night...which I went to also...and Jimi jammed and the next night tore it up with the Flag....

  • way too bad that these two guys don't get their dues. Bloomfield died in 1981!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!! SSShow some respect to this man; the same as Peter Green who were guys wayy ahead of their time.

  • FUCKING AMAZING !!

  • left way too soon

  • soulfully skilled and amazing guitarists.

    so sad how Bloomfield left us tho ... I met Bloomfield when he was playing free at Mill

    Valley, Ca library in around '75 ... he was amazing then, and running low on funds

    because of how the industry mishandled the

    finances and royalty rights of great artists.

    really a shame. After playing he came to visit and smoke some and hang out at our house ... wonderful person. So sad and tragic when

    I heard a few years later how he left this earth ... way too

  • Didn't see this one but I was there for the last appearance of the Electric Flag at Fillmore East when 1/2 way thru Mike took a break and Hendrix took over for an extended jam about going to Mexico!

  • bluesatbirth I agree with with that. Johnny, who i have emulated on guitar, does not feel it enough me with all the fast notes. When i play or listen to Bloomfield, I feel the blues or jazz. I'm 24 and have had this CD for 4 years. Johnny is unique and talented where Bloomfield can do it all.
