Elvin Bishop: Fooled Around and Fell into Blues
from Time Signatures with Jim Ervin
This week on Time Signatures with Jim Ervin, Erv heads past the halfway point in Season four, with legendary Bluesman and elder statesman, Elvin Bishop. Many will remember Elvin for his smash hit with Mickey Thomas on vocals in 1976, ‘Fooled Around And Fell In Love’, but Bishop’s bigger claim to fame was his work with the Chicago Blues scene in the 1960s and 70’s. Elvin talks about meeting a young Paul Butterfield on some steps of an apartment building shortly after arriving in Chicago, his jam sessions with Muddy, Magic Sam, Otis Rush and others, and his advice to the next generation of the Blues.
