Before that I had been listening to blues by Muddy Waters, Willy Dixon, Rolling Stones etc. But when I put this LP on my turntable it came in like a bomb. It was Chicago blues that was just a little different, blues with energy, passion, tight and straight ahead. That wasn&#8217;t surprising in the end because Chicago-born Paul Butterfield was one of the most innovative singers\/mouth harmonica players in Chicago blues. In 1963 Paul formed the band with Mike Bloomfield, Elvin Bishop, Jerome Arnold and Sam Lay and they made 5 albums, the first of which is still the best for me and impressed me the most. Listen to &#8216;Mellow Down Easy&#8217; (Willy Dixon) and &#8216;Blues With A Feeling&#8217; (Little Walter) and you will break down. But also the songs &#8216;Born in Chicago&#8217; and &#8216;Shake your Money Maker&#8217; are gems. The band disbanded after 8 years (1971) and Paul Butterfield died on May 4, 1987. The LP I have is no longer playable, it went from black to gray, so I just bought the CD some time ago.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9774","bluesvdmaand","type-bluesvdmaand","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Paul Butterfield Band - BluesinWijk<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/bluesinwijk.nl\/en\/bluesvdmaand\/the-paul-butterfield-band\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Paul Butterfield Band - BluesinWijk\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"When I was 19, the first LP by The Paul Butterfield Band came out.
