Live Adventures of Mike Bloomf

*The Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper* is a double album recorded at the *Fillmore West venue* in San Francisco. The album is the follow-up to the studio album *Super Session* which included both **Bloomfield** and **Kooper **in addition to *Stephen Stills*, and had achieved commercial and critical success earlier in 1968.

In regards to the performances, recordings and production, in the sleeve notes **Kooper** describes the difficulties of finding rehearsal space, **Bloomfield**'s insomnia, and the failure of a vocal microphone during *"Dear Mr Fantasy"*. The album is an important, if raw, document of a live blues-rock performance of the period and is notable for not only one of the earliest live recordings by *Carlos Santana*, but also **Bloomfield**'s debut as a vocalist. Whilst he is not historically noted in this role, in *"Don't Throw Your Love on Me So Strong"*, according to Kooper, *"he displays consummate homage to the traditional guitar-voice trade-offs; a lesson in phrasing and understanding."*
