Mark, THANKS!

That's what I figured. So I'll give it a try.

Bloomfield would sit in the lounge at Roosevelt University (Chicago) and do note for note re-creations of really difficult styles like Blind Lemon Jefferson's and just blow us away. It was 1960-61 and some years before his own blues band to be followed shortly by Paul Butterfield's band, of which Mike Bloomfield was the main electric guitar force.

Good memories of an old friend and a real musical giant who is recalled by too few these days.
