Format:Audio CD
An extremely enjoyable if at times slightly self-indulgent live album.
Bloomfield and Kooper compliment each other superbly as many years later did Clapton and Winwood.
Mike Bloomfield is simply the gutsiest and soulful of all the non African American guitarists.He enhances the great tradition of BB and Freddie King,Buddy Guy et al,adding a Jewish soul to the Blues.
Al Kopper has been the catalyst for many Rock movements incuding Jazz Rock with Blood Sweat and Tears,and is of course most famous for his organ part on Bob Dylan's Like A Rolling Stone amongst many other Dylan tracks of the period.
There is length to this album,giving time for the solos to gestate that only Jazz albums usually have.
If you enjoy great playing ,marvelous interplay backed up by a superb rhythm section,this will not disappoint !

It is nice to hear a pair of professionals who just start playing and instinctively know where to go next, I wish there were more like them on the go nowadays. thanks

Got this on vinyl a million years ago but alas nothing to play it on, so reliving my younger days with this and other classics on CD. Great atmosphere with this live recording, and yes they really did speak like that back then.

They don't jam like this any more!
This is an excellent record of 3 nights of jamming at the Fillmore, with Carlos Santana and Elvin Bishop replacing Mike Bloomfield, who was taken ill after the first night. Read more

Great jams
These 2 CDs cover exactly what it was like in the 'live' music scene in the late 1960s.

Super session
The Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper is one of the most enjoyable albums of the 20th Century! I first heard it in 1970 and just had to hear this album again. Read more

Jewish Rock Blues
Okay, today this still stands out as one of the great live albums from the 1960s. I am 60 years old and believe me when I say that Mike Bloomfield was second only to Hendrix! Read more
