It's Al Kooper.! The black girl dancing with a flower in her hair is my dear friend Emmaretta Marks who sang with many greats including Jimi Hendrix, The RCO All-Stars, and sang the iconic intro and much of the Stones Gimmie Shelter and was never credited or Paid.!
The man who wound up discovering Lynyrd Skynyrd. Btw, the song is "Wake Me, Shake Me". Ironically, his old band, the Blues Project, performed it the next night.
6-17-1967 (Act 4 Day 2) Al Kooper's performance of "Wake Me, Shake Me"(from the 2nd Blues Project album "Projection") - not "Don't let me sleep to{o} long" as stated here - at the Monterey International Pop Festival, 17 June 1967
I know you are an expert of these issues so I decided to dare to ask you following: This is a song called 'Wake Me, Shake Me' featured in the second Blues Project album 'Projection'. Yes, we see The Blues Project performed at the same festival without featuring Kooper. We can also watch a video of Electric Flag playing the Monterey featuring Harvey Brooks(b) and Buddy Miles(d), needless to say, the former is featured in here as well. Could you please explain what was happening during this fes?
Al had left the Blues Project prior to Monterey Pop, and yet he has stated that he helped refer them to John Phillips and helped them get booked.In this set he is backed up primarily by the Butterfield Blues Band
Kooper the soulful Hebrew in need of auto-tune but the intent is 100% pure gold. Big shout out to the camera men of D. H. Pennebaker’s crew for giving us a window back into this magical music festival and happy times. There was something in the air!
Memory in 1973 during my high school.

Nope, that was Merry Clayton. And she was paid
@@flyingphobiahelp yes it was!
Yes Harvey Brooks bass also Elvin Bishop guitar Billy Davenport drums who played on Paul Butterfield's East-West. Fantastic drummer.
The great Al Kooper! What a musician, very influential, and could really make magic on a Hammond B-3 organ.
Harvey Brooks on bass...great bassist.Loved him with Al,Mike,"Fast"Eddie Hoh,and Steven✊✊
it's Elvin Bishop on guitar, not Michael Bloomfield
Yes. Back to original comment. Harvey f Brooks. 👍👍👍
I think this cat also did "Short Shorts" with The Royal Teens in 1958. Dig on that, brothers and sisters.
and Al also wrote 'This Diamond Ring' which became a hit for Gary Lewis and the Playboys.
Awesome performance, Monterey is one of my favourite festivals for the line-up!!

Yup definitely one of the best live performances I've witnessed - what a groove. Billy Davenport? Ya!
Legends, all of them on that stage
and in the audience!!!

Hell yeah!!!
Elvin Bishop plays guitar and Harvey Brooks bass guitar
Bloomfield knowed Al from the highway 69 sessions
It's kind of hard to believe that this is the guy who produced Lynyrd Skynyrd. They're two different time periods of classic rock it's cool
I LOVE THIS VIDEO
I think the hero was Harvey Brooks on Bass
Hello Lemmy, his name is Al KOOPER
Kooper.
Hypercardioid mics don't work for vocals
Koop on his own ?

Nice vibe to this song, and I enjoyed the instrumental part. It's just that Al Kooper can't sing worth a shit. Can't carry a tune.
I agree and poor Elvin barely making sence I'm sure it sounded better at the show w the bass thumping but out of the mix on the recording

Not much of a keyboard player really, either. He had the look, though.
