Just checked out a video online Deep Purple doing a Beatles cover " Help "I know you like The Beatles good version

I'm no musician but Bloomfield is the only musician who gives me something different every time I hear the same live version for the 50th time. Such soul, so uninhibited, and so educated. The trinity.

George Gruhn admits that Gibson owes just as much equity to MIchael Bloomfield, as Nike owes and is paying equity to Michael Jordan. There's really only one thing that sells guitars. Great guitar players!

He did a lot of really great songs over his time, but this song is always my fav of his to listen to. The version on LIve at the Old Waldorf is amazing too

Thanks for loading this, what a great piece of history.

Great talent one of my guitar heroes. A skilled Jew

He should be in the R&R hall of fame for sure

Master of the guitar, Maestro of the blues

Wow!! Qué banda, blues clásico!!

Clapton got the fame but Bloomfield was the real deal the original white boy blues guitarist.

Michael playing is Super great on this one ! WOW!

Ok what lyrics is he singing?

i don't doubt George at all.he was there...never happened with the beat up mustang MB was playing for a while he was in between guitars

it can be a curse seeing things too well...MB the legend

Does anyone have recordings of David Sanborn soloing in the Butterfield band?

Is that Faye Jimi hendrix girl in the audience in orange?

FUCKING DRUGS,,KILLED AND MAMED SO MANY OF US,,AND STOLE OUR LIFES ,,PRUSSU. TIME!!! DONT TELL ME DRUGS ARENT OF THE DEVIL!!!

Hello Mike bloomfield was a great guitarist his music comes to life you just need to smoke a joint and listen to mike bloomfield you won't be disappointed.cheers

What a Beautiful and incredible cover!!!

Man, to think this was the music that a generation grew up on and today, it's laptop computers, ketamine, digital synthetic beats produced by a dj on a laptop, I mean, there's just no comparison. We call it "classic" because it is and it lives on in a sort of museum, if you will, and thankfully, also on KZbin. What a special time the 60s/70s were for the music created.

Lovely

Thanks for posting this. One comment: I don't know if the date of the interview is correct. According to the unpublished interview/transcript Williams submitted to Playboy (which was based on the tape recording he played on the air), that encounter with Lennon, Ono and Leary occurred on May 30 (which was actually a Friday, not a Saturday). Also, I'm unsure whether Williams travelled from Montreal to Boston the next day as the full taping (on a four track) of "Give Peace a Chance" happened on June 1 in Montreal. According to the unpublished interview, soon after they sang "Give Peace a Chance," they also started into an impromptu version of Leary's campaign song, "Come together, join the party." According to a later interview with Williams, that tape was lost. This might be the only record of that first recording of "Give Peace a Chance"

Good Day. Very Cool. I've been a drummer since 1964. Mike was one of the Great Ones. Thank You & Best Regards.

At the time that Newport Festival stunt was the most gangsta move in music history ...... Legendary

Wow. What an improv arraignment! Even drums, percussions, congas, are RIGHT ON! I can die peacefully now lol.

Glad to see more people like me still appreciate Bloomfield and what he contributed to the guitar! Amazing talent!

I'd love to see this whole thing.

Peace love n happiness When bands used to jam Peace n serenity

Had a great time, even with the heat.

Unmistakable sound.

Superb !! Thanks

I just listen to this for the first time. And then 4 more times. As a guitar okay, this has changed my life. Thank you, Mike.

Seemed like such a cool mellow dude.

I saw him play this song almost 50 years ago, and to this day, still remember the feeling as if time stood still during his solo.

Cold Blood horns with Lydia Pense

Oh, those nights... after hours in line, rushing in to cram into the foot of the stage... smell of beer and funny cigarettes... rockin' til you dropped, with your girlfriend on your shoulders... Winterland was rock out heaven...

Jeff Beck stopped using his Le Pauls. He said they were too easy to play, too easy to make sound good, so they made him lazy.

When the rest of the world was giving Clapton acclaim, it took a while for us Chicago boys to give him a break. We preferred Mike.

Mike was smart enough to be anything, but wasn't interested in "success", except to be a great musician. His large family allowance gave him that freedom.

Mike played a Telecaster w/PBBB. He offered my friend 2 guitars, (possibly his Tele & Fretless Wonder), plus cash, for his 1959LP Standard, (like this one) but my friend liked his '59 too much to part w/it. Mike played the'59 w/the Flag, & on Super Session.

Mike left this guitar at a club, & never went back to find it. It was still missing last time I checked. At this point, it's a million$ ax.

Great player. Tragic story.😢

I’ve every thing to my knowledge Michael did

Mean streets of Glencoe…😂😂😂

This fantastic only question, why wasn't this done more often. I would rather listen to jams like this than anything else. This is grandiose in every component, so goooood. Thanks so much. Broomfield is my first guitar hero, from so long ago. He played with Woody Herman's big band. All of Mike's recordings are a treasure. Thanks for the upload.

Amazing find Bloomfield doing Little Wing. I first heard Boysenberry Jam (Moby Grape) 1968 it changed me for life. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYrTq3drjdCClassi=4UlS3lCD7YfwU2oC

I wonder if I was there?

Man what a riff, love that they gave you a hint of it as the outtro

Could it be that when Andy summers sold clapton his les paul thats what started the craze?
