Book Reviews of Michael Bloomfield - If You Love These Blues: An Oral History

Book Review: The Micheal Bloomfield Story
Summary: 5 Stars

I expected this to be a good read, but this exceeded my expectations! The oral history presentation not only told about Mr. Bloomfield, but also his fellow musicians and friends. A fascinating profile with many funny and hair-raising sidelights. As a person who lived and breathed music during the 60's and 70's, I can highly recommend this to anyone interested in the genre.

Summary of Michael Bloomfield - If You Love These Blues: An Oral History

Guitarist Michael Bloomfield shot to stardom in the ?60s with The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Bob Dylan, The Electric Flag and on Al Kooper?s "Super Session." His story is told in the words of his brother, musicians such as B.B. King, producer Paul Rothchild and dozens of others - including Bloomfield himself. Features a foreword by Carlos Santana, and a CD of unreleased early studio tracks. Hardcover.

"(This book) is a look inside the psyche of a musical innovator who deserves a posthumous Nobel Prize and a statue on Rush Street in Chicago. If you love his blues, you?ll love this book."

- Al Kooper
