Today's Star Track is prompted by two thoughts.
Our, soon to be, new local watering hole (more on that coming soon) has a gallery of old black and white photos on display, one being of a very young Mike Bloomfield, then guitarist with The Paul Butterfield Blues Band.
While the title of this particular track off the band's 1965 debut album seemed a good one for the lucrative world of the property market.
"Shake Your Money Maker" was written by Elmore James in 1961 and is included in the list of 500 songs that shaped Rock and Roll. Covered here by Paul Butterfield (harmonica and vocals), Mike Bloomfield (lead guitar), Elvin Bishop (rhythm), Jerome Arnold (bass), Sam Ley (drums) & Mark Naftalin (organ) - The Paul Butterfield Blues Band >
Check out other tracks from this album - especially 'Last Night' written by Little Walter.
Plus a 'live' recording from Monterey in 1967 - 'Drifin'Blues' >
