The origins of blues rock
The innovation shown by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band.
This historic album fused Chicago blues with rock, opening up new possibilities for white blues bands. The twin guitar ensemble of Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop sparks off, and "East-West" in particular features extensive improvisation. This is a crucial work that laid the foundation for blues rock.
