mike bloomfield is still the greatest...






no doubt about it.
MIke still does it every time for me.
Sure I love to spin Red HOuse and Ramblin' On My Mind and Have you ever loved a woman but overall MIke Bloomfileds playing does it every time.
His music is above all musical and the 'tone' comes from the fingers "MAN"!
Seriously its everything.
Fluidity.
Attack.
Phrasing.
Rhythm.
the lot!
Back on the leser plane its Muddy for fun and Jerry and the boys for a bit of the real country medicine.
New Zealand commentator on Len Lye this morning (RNZ 9-noon) said that it wasn't the 60's but the seventies where the artisitic explosion took place in Godzone.
Maybe true but it was the 60's where the doors were opened.
The Hippeis led the charge.
some got burned and some got turned
but it all worked out in the end.
