    REALLY GOOD QUESTION! Mike Bloomfield didn’t want the spotlight
    he just wanted to play..
    He was from old
    Jewish New York
    Money. His family owned Blooming Dales in New York.
    His father was really disappointed when he heard Mike just wanted to play the blues.
    The fame and money didn’t matter. Mike was a humble and kind man. I got to see the Butterfield blues band at the Fillmore East.❤ they played for over three hours. I couldn’t get up to leave. He lived and died the blues.☮️

      The only time I ever saw The Paul Butterfield Blues Band was at the FILLMORE East in December 1968. They were the headliners & they brought the house down. Butterfield; Gene Dinwiddie & David Sanborn on sax along with Elvin Bishop on lead guitar provided some of my more memorable moments at the great concert venue.
      But that evenings highlight, for me, came during the second acts performance. That group was Super Session with Al Kooper & Mike Bloomfield. Like Butterfield's band they were outstanding. But the best part was when Bloomfield introduced an unknown Blues guitarist named Johnny Winter. Unbelieivable!!!

    Last show I saw, Butterfield with Alvin Bishop, but Michael had left the band...
    If I had to do it again, I'd correct those mistakes

    I always felt the best lineup for the Butterfield band was the original lineup of Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop on guitars. Without Elvin the band still sounds fine, with no huge loss of quality. But having Elvin on that second guitar really filled out the sound nicely. It just bothered me when a new band would come out and played well, Then a player would leave. Jethro Tull had that happen on their 2nd album.

      I'd read an interview with Bloomfield in which he said that it isn't how many nores one plays, oor how fast, but how each note is played. And then he'd PLAY fast and tons of notes, belying that comment.
      In this video he actually somewhat lives up to his word.
      Meanwhile, most of my peers ignored "Butterfield Blues Band" because there were Blacks in the band -- preferring non-Chicago "Chicago" "blues" player "Clapton is god".

Clapton never got where Page got much less Blackmore but he was better than this guy simply be use of his freedom and fluidity as opposed to this guy’s rote recitation.
