Music reviews of Live at Bill Graham's Fillmore West: 1969
Music Review: Amazing Bloomfield album
Rating: 5 Stars
An spectacular album! The whole band is top notch, but Mike Bloomfield steals the show (as per the usual). His playing is simply amazing on this album; just as good or even better than on PBBB, East-West, Super Session, or his other popular works.
Nick's singing is very good and the rest of the band really rocks. All the songs are quite good and it's nice to hear Taj on Track 5.
Although I haven't seen it posted anywhere (and I looked, thinking mine was possibly defective) there is a squeal or squeak that you can hear occasionally in some of the songs. I don't know if it is feedback or what exactly, but it does distract me a little when listening. However, it isn't a big deal and the sound quality on the CD is good.
Description of Live at Bill Graham's Fillmore West: 1969
Raven presents for the first time on one CD, the legendary concert by MICHAEL BLOOMFIELD and NICK GRAVENITES recorded at Bill Graham's Fillmore West in 1969. With bonus track, superb quality audio, color booklet and informative liner notes. The late, great Bloomfield is recognised as one of the finest and most influential blues guitarists that America has ever produced. Best known for his astonishing technique and the piercing tone of his solos, he was a member of the ground-breaking Paul Butterfield Blues Band, played on Dylan's 'Like a Rolling Stone' and backed him at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival when Dylan first went 'electric'. He helped pioneer horn-rock with the Electric Flag and the Super Session concept with Al Kooper as well as recording Triumvirate with John Hammond Jr and Dr. John. Bloomfield and Gravenites - lead singer of the Flag and a respected bluesman in his own right - cut an incendiary performance at the Fillmore West which yielded this phenomenal album. The concert was split across the original Live at Fillmore West vinyl and Gravenites' My Labors album, and the tracks have now been recombined on one stellar CD. Bloomfield positively burns on 'It Takes Time', 'Killing My Love', 'Gypsy Good Time', while his monumental solo on 'Blues on a Westside' is one of the greatest moments in blues rock history. Carlos Santana said Bloomfield "literally changed my life". Dylan said "he played circles around anything I could play". Gravenites called him "a huge giant of a person".General CDs
