Paul Butterfield Blues Band

Bloomfield, Bishop and Butterfield knocked down walls between black and white with their strong love of blues and their equally powerful chops. Here are Born in Chicago; Blues with a Feeling; Last Night; Mellow Down Easy, and the rest of their 1965 debut!

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band was one of the most important American bands of the 60s, featuring Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, and Elvin Bishop. Unlike the British blues revivalists, the Butterfield band was schooled in the tough Chicago bars that housed Muddy Waters, Little Walter, and Howlin' Wolf. They didn't imitate the blues, they were the blues. Songs featured are Work Song; Drowned in My Own Tears; and Born In Chicago.
