MIKE BLOOMFIELD & AL KOOPER Super Session (2009 US exclusive limited 9-track LP pressed on Audiophile Quality High Definition Vinyl, originally released in July 1968 - this historic summit meeting features three of the era’s greatest musical talents: blues guitar hero extraordinaire Mike Bloomfield, multi-talented keyboard visionary Al Kooper and Buffalo Springfield/CSNY founder and ace axeman Stephen Stills. After achieving prominence for his work as amember of the Blues Project and Blood, Sweat and Tears, Kooper hit upon the idea of cutting a rock album using the same approach that was the standard method for jazz recordings - pick a leader or two co-leaders, hire appropriate sidemen, pick some tunes, make some up and record an entire album on the fly in one or two days! Instrumental support was provided by bassist Harvey Brooks and keyboardist Barry Goldberg, both of the Electric Flag, and veteran session drummer Eddie Hoh. 'Super Session' proved to be both a commercial smash and a seminal influence, becoming the biggest-selling release of Bloomfield’s career and inspiring countless other artists to attempt similar studio-jam recording projects! Presented in sealed & stickered picture sleeve)
