    Saw this set at Keystone Palo Alto, Bob Corona's Place just south of The City. What a night. Paul and Rick were livin' fast The music and the times were magic. They could have gone all night. I remember them doing this Punky song "Love You to Much". Man were those guys on.

    Maybe I should stop reading the comments on blues songs because it seems that every time some argument about whether it's blues or not breaks out. Then everyone starts bragging that they know what true blues is and saying that other people don't know shit about it. Artists like BB King love to collaborate and play with all types of players, blues or not. They don't worry about such trivial crap. Just enjoy the music.

You people who are saying something something regarding the tempo of this song, telling US to watch it..... well “Butter” started his songs..... not any of us!!!

    Paul sings like he plays. He's not a great traditional singer but his phrasing is suberb. That's why the harp solos are so seamless and the gorgeous backline don't miss a step. But then that solo. Peerless. Switching from the chords to the off melody. Genius.

      Gorgeous backline? Did you miss Paul B. turn around ab out 5 times telling the drummer to slow the F. down? This version of Born in Chicago was break-neck speed and the drummer was playing it more like an upbeat Bluegrass Polka beat. Based on other comments it would appear your transmission to articulate observations about his singing are not connecting with others.......my guess since you don't seem to be criticizing directly. Anyway, my observations as a 48 year harmonica player who was full-time pro by age 20 and have worked with tons of pro Blues Musicians (including opening for Elvin Bishop one of his original guitar players) who would all say Paul Butterfield was a superb Blues vocalist.

    One of my best musical memories was seeing these two guys play a small gig in the mid 80s as a duo. They were already two of my greatest musical heroes, and to see them in a small intimate setting with just one acoustic guitar and harmonica was awesome. Incidentally, they switched off a song or two with Butterfield playing guitar and Danko taking the harmonica. That was unexpected, but so cool.

    • @rodgarnay51
      @rodgarnay51 7 років тому +2

      One thing UA-cam has shown lately has been the difference between Bloomfield and Butterfield as their careers headed downhill. Bloomfield's playing clearly declined, while Butterfield's didn't in the least. He was just usually surrounded by inferior musicians.

    • @randypotter7442
      @randypotter7442 7 років тому +1

      Totally agree. I wish that I had picked up a copy of Butter's last album when I worked for Record Theatre. His last album was on Amherst Records which was part of Record Theatre. Bloomfield 's playing on a Country Joe McDonald album (released in the early 90's on Fantasy, I think) was pretty good though. Wish that they were still around nevertherless. Thanks ! Randy

      I heard Paul's alpha male ways drove Bloomfield out of the band, which if true is a real shame, because those guys were really jelling and making breakthroughs musically at that time, imo. I think I remember Bloomfield saying Paul learned to be a hard ass from hanging out with Little Walter. All I know is that when I met him, he was a very nice, gracious guy.

      yes Horn From the Heart. It is awesome. I saw a special showing in LA and his son and the director were both there answering questions. It was great and more people should know about him

    Sad to see the great Butterfield with those posers behind him. He is just tearin' it up.
    I sure wish I still had that mike. The Astatics and the other ones I've used since mine was stolen just don't cut like that Butterfield high-impedance, unidirectional Shure mike. Only mine had a ball - Paul is more often seen using this model that doesn't have one. Coupled with his unmatched talent, that's where he gets that incredibly powerful sound that allows his vibrato to shine through.

    I still have a couple of Paul Butterfield Blues Band albums. Just an FYI... I went to school with Tom Stevenson (pianist) and his cousin Stanley Sheldon (bass player with Peter Frampton and others) both outstanding musicians !!!! This is a great rendition :)

    Music categories were inverted by the record companies as a place to file records in stores. The improvisation used by great players is pure jazz... a direct line to the source, they are but conduits! Whether wants to call it Blues, R&B or rock-n-roll... it's just a label.

      no no no and no again. 🙃
      this was recorded in 1979 Paul would be around for eight more years before he would check out.
      please get your facts straight.
      you want to see one of the last performances before he died look up on UA-cam Stevie Ray Vaughan Albert King Paul Butterfield The sky is crying that would be one of his last appearances where you can literally see his body totally wrecked at age 44 looking like an elder blues man is in his 60s
      so you sure you were living with him in New York at the time?
