Came across this story on the R Crumb facebook page and thought some here might enjoy it ... Mike Bloomfield hanging out with Big Joe Williams .. link to the story ... http://michaelmesser.proboards.com/thread/7797/me-big-joe-mike-bloomfield?fbclid=IwAR3pZNVI0A1JLuofY-oIsuf-89z0ya-SArpCnEC0OQ1T4PQQiq1iDZLBYRk
Some nice R Crumb artwork ...
The article is a good read. Mike had the ability to document the journey with Big Joe in a very interesting way. A story of music, people's interactions and race relations. I have to think that music is a bridge for people to overcome color and communication that may very well have not occurred otherwise. The story further documents the varied life of a player, Mike, that I am hugely fond of. His contribution to music was a special thing. Thanks for the post.
