    Live at the Bearsville Theater in Woodstock, NY - November 16, 2012: Paul Butterfield Revisited. Filmed and edited by Thom Pollard - Eyes Open Productions. Gabriel Butterfield (drums), Jimmy Vivino and Jimmy Eppard (guitar), Steve Guyger (harp and vocals), Pete Levin (keys) and Jim Curtin (bass).
    Paul Butterfield Revisited was formed by Gabe Butterfield and Jimmy Vivino to give tribute to the music and life of the late, great Paul Butterfield. Butterfield was a blues harpist and band leader that pioneered the world of blues and rock, forming the first integrated blues band. His Chicago roots and beginnings are legendary, including the true story of pestering Muddy Waters during early performances (at the age of 14!) to let him sit in and play.
    Born In Chicago was the first track off the iconic blues release The Paul Butterfield Blues Band. The album was the debut disc by Paul Butterfield, released in 1965 on Elektra Records. In 2003, the album was ranked number 476 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, moving up to number 468 in the revised 2012 list, and also is ranked at #11 on Down Beat magazine's list of the top 50 blues albums.
    Born In Chicago is one of the band's signature songs, in the style of electric Chicago blues. The Paul Butterfield Blues Band is a milestone in the history of blues music as one of the first blues albums featuring a white singer, paralleling the British blues movement and anticipating the blues-rock phenomenon of the late 1960s.
    Paul Butterfield Revisited:
    Gabriel Butterfield - drums and vocals
    Jimmy Vivino - guitar and vocals
    Jimmy Eppard - guitar and vocals
    Pete Levin - keyboards
    Jim Curtin - bass and vocals
    Steve Guyger - harp and vocals
    Born In Chicago was written by Nick Gravenites.

    The hardest thing in playing blues harp is working the lower register....playing the low notes; bending them takes more heft...you gotta pull and push more air. Butter generally favored higher pitched harps but he could work that low end...and his tight, rich vibrato? nobody can do that like he could

    • @TheDoctorgus
      @TheDoctorgus 3 года назад +1

      I disagree slightly. This song is in the key of A, and Butterfield played a D harp. He rarely played much about the 6 hole on it, and I haven't seen him playing a whole lot of stuff on the F or high G harps. But yes, he sure could work the low bends, especially the blue 3rd, expertly.

      @@BackstageMusicChannel well I do believe that I'm a good critic of the Butterfield band revisited and let's not forget the great rhythm section being a professional bass player in the blues scene for 30 odd years... I was exceptionally pleased that Paul Butterfield's son is in there.. I'm a lifelong fan of the Allman Brothers and it's so cool to see the almond bats band going with Barry Oakley Jr man I'm a bass player for 30 years and I've been digging in bands my whole life and Perry Oakley was definitely an influence on me so to see Barry Oakley Jr and Paul Butterfield's son out there doing doing it almost better than Dad did it that's such a treasure I never had offspring of my own and after seeing these guys I sure wish I would have so what I'll say to everyone out there in the music appreciation scene is dig it enjoy it and pick up an instrument and play it if you can cuz it's rewards beyond belief to be a musician

    Thanks guys! I was a junior in high school 1965 when Butter's first LP came out. I was totally blown away with it and when I got wind of them coming to the San Francisco Bay area to perform I knew I couldn't miss it!
    It may have been 1966. I was expecting Sam Lay to be on drums, but he had been replaced by Billy Davenport. Every one else Was there though. Paul, Mike Bloomfield, Elvin Bishop Jerome Arnold. I heard they were playing in the Fillmore district, but back then that was a rough part of town for a lone white boy. So I opted to see them in Berkeley instead. It was some auditorium on the UC campus.
    I went by myself. The first thing I remember seeing was this lone Hells Angel standing under a strobe light swinging a motor cycle chain around. Up on stage was the opening act, a local group called The Jefferson Airplane. It was before Grace Slick had joined the band so there was another gal singing with them. I believe she is on their first LP The Jefferson Airplane Takes Off.
    Finally Butterfield and the boys filed on stage. What a night! I had never experienced anything like it. Bloomfield and Butterfield trading licks, they blew the roof off that place!
    After that East West came out, but I never warmed up to it like I did to Born In Chicago, Shake Your Money Maker, and the other great tracts on that first LP.

      Duffy, I had the same experience you had but only at the Fillmore. I was first blown away by the album cover. Then the music inside was coming out the record grooves like gangbusters. When I heard they were coming I was there for the first concert with Steve Miller and Charlie Musselwhite opening. When the Butter band came on I thought I had gone to blues heaven. I was completely taken over by that band. Still am to this day. I was a big Elvis fan, big Beatles fan, but when the Butter band came to SF I had never seen anything like that. The excitement they produced live on stage was just too much to take. It was mesmerizing to say the least. They had the capability to drown all your blues and troubles away and just float in blues and rock and roll heaven.
      Consider myself a lucky man to have experienced the Paul Butterfield blues band!

      @duffysullivan2794 3 года назад +3

      I just now saw all these replies! I don't think I was notified originally. Great to see some Butterfield Blues Band fans are still alive and digging their sounds.
      I was a big fan of Mike and went to see him play several times. Heard him with the Electric Flag at the Fillmore and I remember one night in the early 70s going to see him play at this small restaurant / bar in the North Beach neighborhood in San Francisco. He was more or less jamming with 2 or 3 other people. Mike and the others were sitting in chairs on a small stage, playing blues and maybe a little jazz. My friend and I had a good table in front. That was the last time I saw Mike Bloomfield.
