“I could be President of General Motors baby,
or just a tiny little grain of sand........”
Al Kooper
Wonder how far they would have gone with Kooper staying instead of bringing in David Clayton Thomas?
I am pretty sure that we have all heard a whole lot more of Al Kooper’s stuff than we could ever realize. From the organ playing in Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone”, to work with The Who, The Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, George Harrison, etc, etc etc. He wrote “This Diamond Ring”.
Oh yeah, he was one of those guys that was everywhere during the 60s.
“I never liked them or Chicago”
I second that.
Rolling Stone for Dylan
Worked with Bloomfield and Stills
Hendrix
Alice Cooper
Ronnie and my boys of course
Cream
Zombies
Organ on Freebird
Johnny Winter
Best era Stones
And 100s of performances he never insisted for back cover credit
A really cool cat.....quite a range for a quirky Jewish kid from Brooklyn with a great ear for what was ready to bust open musically
If he’s not in the R&RHOF for innovativeness and an eye for talent he sure oughta be
