(You can find all 10 parts of this now-complete video bio by searching on “Michael Bloomfield Story”) IN CELEBRATION OF Michael Bloomfield’s 67th birthday anniversary, mikebloomfieldamericanmusic.com offers a video biography of the legendary guitarist, detailing his remarkable career with images, interview clips and music. Created by filmmakers Nick Lerman and Alex Wernquest, and site manager David Dann, this 10-part narrative begins with Bloomfield as a young, up-and-coming guitarist recording for John Hammond Sr., playing with Bob Dylan and joining the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. It then follows Michael as he creates the Electric Flag and performs to standing ovations at Monterey, records “Super Session” with Al Kooper and then pursues a career playing music on his own terms. Included are excerpts from previously unheard Bloomfield recordings as well as rare and seldom-seen photos of the guitarist. Please note that this video should not be confused with, and is not associated with, the soon to be completed feature documentary, “If You Love These Blues: The Life and Music of Mike Bloomfield,” a Ravin’ Films production. It is expected to be released in 2012.

Hit Parader, February 1967 (feeling the music) “Guys like BB King and Muddy Waters who are speaking to the people-there are so many things in their music that just completely pass by the kids. Most kids listen to their music because it has a beat or because they know it’s Muddy Waters and it means something cloudy and obscure to them. There’s so much going on lyrically – an afficione will appreciate things that another cat will miss. I’m using that Spanish word because it’s the only one. You have to live it, it’s got to be part of you. To get emotional is the most important thing in all music. If you can’t get emotions out of your audience, it doesn’t mean a thing – mike bloomfield Muddy Waters “FATHER’S & SON’S ” LP April 1969 muddy waters-vocals/guitar mike bloomfield-guitar paul butterfield-harmonica donald “duck” dunn-bass sam lay-drums otis spann-piano please visit MIKEBLOOMFIELD.com
