A truly mentally unhinged masterwork. This and APOLHK are the most scarily magnificent musical passages in modern music. No producer ever had to ask Peter ''one more time with feeling'' that's for sure !

Like Hendrix, Michael's sound was in his hands and his energy. The make of guitar didn't matter.

I don't have Perfect Pitch or even close to it...but, Michael misses playing in pitch to my ears. Passionate about his talent for sure, but, ouch those clams are tough to get past.

Been playing this a lot lately and it just gets better. Strange thing is the main theme keeps reminding me of an early song by Kate Bush ! What a pairing that could have been - they are both total one offs vocally and she was quite unhinged at times lyrically as well. Just imagine the pair of them in 1978 bashing the hell out of a poor grand piano while wailing some metaphysical treatise to an audience of bemused punks who thought they were the New Music.

I'm in command, I'm in control, I am the captain of my soul. Still, I'm uncertain in one major role... oh, I drift through the unconscious life, shift through the unconscious life, lift up my unconscious eyes: beyond all normal pain and pleasure we should treasure the unconscious life. We've got our reasons for most things we do, we could surely rationalise them through. A false ring of confidence would characterise us true - oh, we're deep in the unconscious life asleep in the unconscious life, peeping through unconscious eyes. Beyond all normal pain and pleasure we should treasure, treasure the unconscious, treasure the unconscious life. Something makes me nervous, something makes me twitch, something makes me scratch that Pavlovian itch, (Wonder what that is now...?) Someone that I barely know must unpick the stitch to unravel the unconscious life, travel the unconscious life, gather the unconscious eye... far from shedding light on any motive the candle is votive when it burns at both ends. I'm not in command, I'm out of control, I am the Ship's Boy of my soul.... Oh, we drift through the unconscious life, shift through the unconscious life, live through the unconscious life

Funny it's referred to as Filmore -West .. .it wasn't .. just the Filmore Auditorium as that's the street/dostrict in SF where it was .. When he opened the eastern version they copped the name to lend a little SF vibe......... a 5th gen SF native...

Bloomfield hit his peak in '69 recording and touring with Gravenites. The stuff those two guys did together outside Electric Flag is waaaay better than the stuff they did in that band.

Mike Bloomfield continues to entrance me every time I hear him play. I never saw him in person. I'm an amateur drummer , not a guitar player. I was lucky to live in SF from 05 to 10, and I played with a bassist who once hung with Bloomfield. I can't talk about tone or phrasing like a guitarist can. Bloomfield was a seeker, a lover of the music, and he cut his teeth on the South Side with Muddy, the Wolf and Spann. He will never be forgotten. He moves me todo los dias.

The reason why Mike Bloomfield was not as big as Eric Clapton, I think, is only because at that time blues wasn’t something of a novelty in America, and the young people preferred rock and roll. While it was something new and awesome for the young generation in UK. And the blues had to be “imported” back to USA. after the UK music invasion in 1960s.

Many, many years ago, I went to Fillmore West in San Francisco to see Mike Bloomfield play with The Paul Butterfield Blue's Band. But Mike Bloomfield never showed up. It was a real drag. The couple I was with, also a musician in a band called "Wizard", commented on how unreliable Bloomfield had become in regards to performances. So I never got to see Bloomfield in person. Bummer!
