WHAT's NEW
[Top (page index)] [Up] [Down] [Bottom (site index)]

What's new on this web page?

If you see the date changing on this page, without an announcement in this section, it is probably something like fixing minor coding problems, spelling errors, minor layout changes, new page on this site (so I changed bottom index), ... Any major changes to this page, will be announced here.

February 5, 2014. I just noticed a review of a new box set about Mike Bloomfield, which includes previously unreleased tracks and a video documentary. Blurt FORGOTTEN HERO: Mike Bloomfield

May 31, 2007. You can now listen to streaming free music from this band as well as others at Wolfgangs Vault.

July 18, 2005. I just noticed that the ezBoard message board that I had set up for this web site had been deleted. Since restoration of the deleted conference is only available to subscribers to their service, and since the activity was relatively light, I not planning on looking for another message board. If you do think a message board is worth while, or you have a message board that you like, let me know and I may promote it here. As always you can contact me here.

September 15, 2004. For those who like later versions of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Rhino Hand Made recently released, as a limited edition, with bonus tracks, the live album recorded at the Troubadour, in Los Angeles, in March 1970.

March 10, 2001. It looks like I may have been premature in moving to a new web hosting site. I just found out that whenever Tripod.com is having hardware or software problems with their servers, they put up a message for the webmaster that their site is in violation of terms, and the web site has been deleted (instead of a message about system problems and try again later). Anyway, I believed Tripod.com when they said they deleted my account, so I will be moving, and making chromeoxide.com my new home on the web.

March 10, 2001. As long as I am moving my entire site, I decided to make a few changes to the layout of the individual pages, and the web site in general, including (but not limited to) I removed the counter, and moved the listings of mirror sites to the bottom of the page, ...

March 6, 2001. Sometime between March 1 to March 5, 2001 Tripod deleted my account/web site. The last stats Tripod gave me were 9,000+ visitors per month. Since my site is so popular, I have decided to keep it going, in spite of this major setback. But rather than trying to build up another free web site, and possibly deal with this problem again, I decided go with CommandLine.net to host the new chromeoxide.com.

October 31, 2000. The new Chrome Oxide Music Collectors Pages Message Board is provided by EZBoard.

October 31, 1999. There used to be a complete listing of all the bands featured on this site at the bottom of each page on this site. The complete band list has now been moved to the Site Map.

Back in June 1997 when I started this site, the index at the bottom of the page seemed like a good idea. Due to the amazing growth of this site, I now think that the Site Map is a better way to do it.

I will continue to list the featured band of the month at the bottom of each page on this site.

December 3, 2002 CD Now is undergoing changes, and asked that ALL links be removed.
October 28, 1999 I signed up with CD Now.

October 22, 1999. The Chrome Oxide Music Collector Pages web site hit the big time! And I didn't even know it.

Tripod stats showed that this web site had more than 4,000 unique visitors last month (September 1999). Because of that, Tripod has increased my web space from 11mb to 50mb.

May 21, 1999. On the advice of legal counsel, we have now added a copyright notice, and legal disclaimer to the bottom of each page on this web site.

March 31, 1999. I started a new section on this page, Classifieds. Now, if someone is interesed in putting an ad here, or I find something I think is worthwhile, there is a place for it.

March 30, 1999. I recently picked up An Offer You Can't Refuse, which is finally on CD. The liner notes and CD have a few misprints, mainly, that the Paul Butterfield track 6 One Room Country Shack is not listed on the CD, but it is on the CD. Also, it lists the Paul Butterfield tracks before the Walter Horton tracks, but they are after.

March 16, 1999. Thanks to a recent visitor to this page, we now have a logo for the Chrome Oxide Music Collectors Pages, as well as a new background and seperator bars. There may be additional changes to look forward to as well.

October 08, 1998. I was just informed that the first three songs from the Newport show are available on a CD "Blues With a Feeling" Vanguard VCD2-77005 (rel 1993). If it is still in print, and my budget can afford it, I will be picking it up in the near future.

September 23, 1998. I recently received a tape (and information) that allows me to add a few more live shows (with partial set lists) for 1965 and 1966 to this site.

PAUL BUTTERFIELD BLUES BAND
INTRO
[Top (page index)] [Up] [Down] [Bottom (site index)]

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band started out as an electric blues band out of Chicago, IL in the early 1960s. By the late 1960s, the band had evolved into a jazzier sound, complete with a horn section. Paul Butterfield had have a gravelly voice, and played the harp. During the time when they were a blues band, Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop created a reputation for the band and themselves with their skillful guitar playing.

The blues style is my favorite portion of Paul Butterfield's career, and it seems to me that there are some record labels that agree as well. In 1995 Rhino/Elektra released the The Original Lost Elektra Sessions, studio sessions recorded in 1964 and intended for their first album, but not released until now.

Also released in 1995, Strawberry Jam, is a collection of live tracks from their live shows, mostly from 1966 and 1967.

Released in 1996 East-West Live, are three versions of their instrument jam known as East-West, recorded live at various venues in 1966 and 1967.

Michael Bloomfield died February 15, 1981.

Comments and corrections would be appreciated.

And of course, any audio-video-print additions to my collection would be appreciated.

I am also interested in getting wider exposure for this site. So links from your site to mine would be appreciated. And if you know of any sites that allow/encourage submission, I would also appreciate knowing about them as well.

Do you have any articles, books, albums, tapes, CDs, ... on this band that you would like reviewed and / or integrated into this page?

Do you have any other band that you would like to see a page for on this site?

Back in October 1999 I put up links to CD-Now so that visitors could easily link to the related band pages and instantly see which items were still in print/available for purchase. CD-Now no longer has that option. For the moment I am putting in Amazon.com search boxes. Amazon.com doesn't easily allow for links to individual band pages in the same way that CD-Now used to. So, instead of me being able to create direct links, I have put up the Amazon.com search box instead. So you can still go to a page with the various bands products, buy you now need to go through a search box.

As always, let me know what you think.
