By the mid-seventies, Mike Bloomfield’s friendship with Electric Flag members remained as strong as ever, as their two-night engagement at New York’s Bottom Line in January 1975 testifies. Minus Goldberg and Miles and putting a failed reunion Flag album behind him, Bloomfield is joined by friends past and present. With ex-Butterfield cohort Mark Naftalin, George Raines (Boz Scaggs) and new Electric Flag recruit Roger »Jellyroll« Troy; the band would find little or no pressure at the Bottom Line. Echoes of Electric Flag and Gravenites’ tenure in Big Brother are recalled alongside the more traditional drawl of Little Walter and Stick McGhee. Six years later, Mike Bloomfield would be found dead in his car from a drug overdose. It’s a prized concert from an icon that embraced the blues and who left a legacy behind him.
