Thank God Someone is recognizing Mike Bloomfield's true worth and contribution to the Guitar World. Bravo! I've been a fan since I was a teenager
Yeah! Since 1969! ruclips.net/video/D2JuQqaa1IA/видео.html
In the late 1960-s Elvin Bishop and Mike Bloomfield did a dueling guitars with butter field blues band at the Fillmore auditorium,it lasted 45 minutes,we went back the next day for the matinee,he was by far the most talented blues gitarist
If there's a better breakdown of Bloomfield's playing, I haven't seen it. This is fantastic. Thanks so much.
Mike Bloomfield is my favorite guitar player, and Mary Ann is maybe my favorite song. So you can imagine how happy I am to see you to teach this song.
This lesson is awesome Jack!! Wonderful to remember the incredible Mike Bloomfield!
Can’t believe he passed away so young. The best was yet to come. It would have been off the charts amazing.
As someone who does Mike Bloomfield videos, I have to say you’re the first one to real nail it. Really awesome. Thanks
David Rabinow
After going back and listening to Mike Bloomfield there are 2 things I love about his playing. First its really unique and interesting to see and hear how he placed himself in a band and song, usually the guitar is center stage and even the driver of the melody but he didn't do that all too often, he played a lot more like a backing vocalist to me. Second thing is listening to his playing I love how earthy and raw it is even in studio, you hear all the extra noise, buzzing, a note not quite ringing out right, accidental string noise and so on and I love that aspect to him he didnt try to hide or escape it and just let it happen.
One of my favorite things about Bloomfield, is that he just went for it with his solos. They were often erratic, and yet so perfect. They were so reflective of what the blues is all about, raw emotion. Listen to songs like East West, or Work Song, Mike was really going for it and wasn't afraid to play out of time or hit wrong notes.
You nailed his phases and tone. Been a fan of Bloomfield since the first Butterfield album. Well done.
Thanks Jack for the great video! ❤ . Mike Bloomfield was under appreciated!🙀😸🎸
Playing key Bloomfield licks but still sounding exactly like you! That’s the sign of a player who has it all dialled in. Thanks for recognising and highlighting Bloomfield and for all your lessons.
Thanks for bringing Mike to light. I've been a fan since the mid sixties. I was fortunate to see Mike jam several times at Fillmore in SF.
Thanks , Jack . Two of my friends knew him . When I was gettin started it was Bloomfield , Clapton , Beck and Hendrix and then 3 guys named King .
Bloomfield is one of my favorite guitarists of all time. Thank you so much for this lesson Jack! ❤
Love this!! 👊
Mike 😎 Bloomfield
Can’t wait for the next episode!!
I really appreciate your Mike Bloomfield lesson. I recently read the Mike Bloomfield biography Guitar King, and have been listening to his recordings. Your lesson is spot on, and very informative. Looking forward to your next one. Thank you and keep up the great work. I also love your guitar lessons on TrueFire. Absolutely excellent work.
As always, great lesson. I’d love to watch a lesson on Grant Green. Thanks, Jack
Oh man, you're my main source of learning lately, I just bought your latest truefire course on soloing, and I am going through it at the moment, alongside some youtube lessons. I watch almost every lesson you put out and i am like, "man I wanna learn that" but I need to stay focused on only a few things at once.
Love your style of teaching my man, no guitar lessons made more sense to me like yours do, well done!!!!
Love how Mike went wild on “East West” and on “Work Song”.
Albert's Shuffle from Super Session has got to be the all-time catalogue of quintessential Bloomfield riffs. 1968, age 16, played that album to death.
Alvin Lee, TYA, 'Undead' was another. Check out THAT live album...
You broke out the Les Paul for this one, Jack, wow. Ha ha 😂 😉
Brilliant lesson, brother. 😇
Very under appreciated genius. Mike is one of the best. Easily top 3 guitarists. Thanks for the video and very tasteful playing. Any plans on any Peter Green videos?
This is an incredible lesson Jack. Thanks.
Although your fingers are always easy to follow, unlike some folks, I like the way you break down the different phrases calling the notes out by their numbers relative to the major scale. For me, it just sinks in a little better and easier for me remember days later. The phrase you show around the 16min mark going from the b7 - 6 - 5 - 343 etc., really reminds me of Mike B. Another great lesson. Thanks!!
What an excellent lesson!
Was familiar with his later music, but found The Electric Flag albums. They’re great!!!!
She should have ju-u-u-u-u-u-u-ust ... left me a-lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o--o---o-one!
Nice tribute to Bloomfield...thanks Jack!
Mike Bloomfield got me into guitar playing!
Jack you never disappoint. Great lesson - looking forward to the Patreon upload
My biggest influence ever .. early on, he was my role model on guitar. Not to mention his huge impact on the vintage guitar market. What a sad ending for a very talented guy.
Jack, your touch and phrasing are absolutely outstanding. And the measured way you break things down is a breath of fresh air. Thank you.
Thanks Jack, great lesson. You can hear his influence on Robben.
You’re the man Jack 😊
Great video and thank you to my introduction to Mike Bloomfield. What a rabbit hole of his music I've been on since this video. Love the Bloomfield Les Paul too!
He was humble and very considerate, in one gig in 1974, after the first song ended, one from the audiences screamed one title, Bloomfield answered him with an assuring voice "We will do it in the third song"! A true friend for everybody .
My favorite Bloomfield tune is Albert's Shuffle. That song hits me in the gut everytime I hear it!
Big bloomfield fan/ thanks nice 👍
Noticed you definitely have your own tone!! Kool! In Albert's shuffle it starts on the V chord,he's playing out of E blues tune is in A just another one of his tricks.
Great video. Thanks for putting this together
I want to be able to afford studying over there with you, gold. Now I will listen to Michael Bloomfield, thank you. Take care.
Will be spending a lot of time on this brilliant lesson. I loved his playing but couldn't work it out like this. Thanks a lot.
Great lesson!
Good job! How about a lesson on playing Stop! The best Dennis
Thank God some tasteful playing! Thanks for MB and for NOT OVERPLAYING!
Awesome to see a Bloomfield lesson. Wished he got talked about more. Great video 🤘🏻
All times fine guitar playing!!
Without Mike Bloomfield there wouldn't be Robben Ford! Great post Jack! Any thoughts on his modal playing on Butterfield Blues Band's East-West album?
Nice intro to Mike Bloomfield who was one of Phil Keaggy’s favorite influences.
Fantastic lesson! Fantastic job capturing Mike's tone, thank you!
Another great lesson on my favorite guitarist, thank you so much. 🙂 Mike Bloomfield was fearless, that's what I like most about his style.
Thank you so much from the south Pacific for so kindly sharing your knowledge with all of us ! :)
That pickup line at the begining of the solo also exists on BB King "Live at Regal" I saw Bloomfield 3-4 times in 1960s. Later in the 80s I played with Mark Naftalin (Butterfield Blues Band) . I did a gig with Bloomfield's back up band after he had passed away. Met him once. Strange dude!
Thank you Jack for the list of the songs and the breakdown of one of the best blues guitar playing. I just started listening to some of his interviews and to my surprise he was a good piano player.
great lesson!
Really good tutorial. What a soulful player. Thanks for doing the playlist. I wasn't aware of some of this stuff.
The finish on that guitar is beautiful
Wonderful video!
awesome les paul
What a fantastic video Jack have a wonderful week also stay safe 😊❤😊❤😊❤
Trilling on the FLATTED 5th ❤ well done 😂
This is great!, great presentation and thx for digging into the theory too. Awesome playing too….killer tone 👍👊
Hi Jack this is GREAT, Thanks so much. You are such a melodic player, some Bloomfield yank is the perfect combo.
Another great album from the past displays Mike's super talent, "Super Session" along with Al Kooper and Steve Stills. Every blues fan should put this album on their list.
I bought Super Session when I was on vacation in Seattle in 1968. You Tube his tune Carmilita Shuffle. It is fantastic!
I suggest you adjust your camera angle slightly to show the tips of fingers. We have excellent views of meaty digits but they tend to sometimes block target frets. Your playing is great.
Nice lesson. I chased Michael's tone since Supersession was released.
Fantastic playing on here. My all time fave Bloomfield playing is on Muddy Waters album "Fathers and Sons"...particularly the track "Can't lose what you never had". Mistook it for Johnny Winter.
beautiful lesson. Going to join Patreon for some more joy! thanks @JackRuch . so many details and ideas in this lesson!!
i don't see this lesson on his patreon page.
Love your "Newport" Tele
great vid jack.
if u have a second can u tell us about your les paul…
i haven’t actually seen a reissue less Paul that says “Les Paul” on the truss rod cover. my R 61 SG has it…
just curious
killer playing killer lesson as usual!
It’s a Bloomfield tribute Les Paul based on Mike’s guitar. I borrowed it for the video, it belongs to a friend
@@JackRuch cool. Nice touch using it.
Jack, I have been a fan of Michael's since before you were born. Haha. I go back a long way. You left a couple of his best works off your list. Albert's Shuffle is quintessential Bloomfield. The 30 second Easy Rider off the Electric Flag album is terribly cool. Are these Bloomfield licks in this video available on tabs? Are they on your Patreon page? Thanks, and great video. Liked and subscribed. BTW, I'm an All Access Member on Truefire and just discovered your courses. Taking the Tasty Blues Course now.
Jack, you are the absolute best at breaking these things down into pieces we learners can digest. There are many instructors who play well but can't/don't articulate what they're doing. Q: the I - IV change at the beginning of the solo (besides the triads and chromatic notes) it's going from from C maj pentatonic to C min pentatonic, is that right? It's interesting to figure out how/when players use a minor pentatonic or a dom7 arpeggio over these changes.
Tack!
Bloomfield is Robben Ford's favourite guitarist
🥀Mike was much more than most realize, he was an angel masquerading as a mere human, a true hero. 🥀💔✡️☮️Stop the Hate.
I wish you could teach some of me other favorite guitar plunkers
how to balance voice and instrument volumes...
Can you play Mike Bloomfield fast tunes?
i've been a huge fan of bloomfield since the 1960's. bloomfield needs no long overdue recognition. he was fully recognized in his time as one of the great electric blues players. but! i gotta say that most who claim to be playing licks in the style of bloomfield are either saying that for clicks here on youtube or seeking status with their aquaintances. i have yet to hear anyone who truly plays in the blomfield style. to talkabout STYLE. from my time in the stone age, style meant one was recognizeable by one's playing characteristics, tone, signature licks, etc. no need to look at the album cover or say i play in the style of...one only need to hear the guitarist to know it was beck, page, clapton, abrahms, santana, hendrix, winter, BLOOMFIELD, etc....today players say in the style of "artist" and rarely sound or play anything that resembles what they claim. this deep dive into bloomfield is really nothing more than generic licks played by jack ruch.
to speak on influences of one's playing. i think what happens is this. a guitarist learns of an artist , like bloomfield, and listens to some tracks that stir emotion, they saturate themselves with the artist, learn some licks that resemble what they think they hear and then believe they are playing in the style of"!@#$". and for youtube perhaps bloomfield is now a click bait word.
just a little aside now. the intro you refer to of "mary ann" is played from the major penta over the chords dom 7 and maj 4. i am not trained as a musician but i think you will find this "6 th" is included in the M penta, the double notes are directly from the dom 7 and maj 4, so chord tones. and everyone, nearly. uses it. not just bloomfield. bloomfield plays many notes that are his signature but one needs listen very carefully to find them,
there are many on youtube doing these type videos. all are roughly similar in that they claim to a style of the artist, but rarely produce the result.
unsolicited advice would be play in you own style and do the analysis. leave the greats to their genius and you will maintain your credibility. promote oneself on one's strengths and characteristics, as a player, and stop using the succes, skill, genius of the greats. plagiarism has many forms...
@billgator2005
When you produce something-anything-better, be sure to advise us. 👎🤣
Great lesson about his style but you know he never really had that much break up in his tone. I think it's pretty hard to cop his tone without using a Twin and just turning it up, and wearing ear plugs. Ha!
That guitar needs some help with all that fret buzz (the Danocaster)
The Paul Butterfield blues band is the best blues band that’s ever been around.
You lost your ragged mind.....never never never..
Must be the season of the witch.
