SUPERSTARS WEEK - AL KOOPER. Blood Sweat & Tears, Bob Dylan, The Blues Project, Super Session!

Follow Your Dream - Music And Much More!

Welcome to SUPERSTARS WEEK! This week I’m rebroadcasting my interviews with five Superstars: Judy Collins, Al Kooper, David Amram, Ron Carter and Oscar Hammerstein II.

Al Kooper is a true Superstar of rock music. He was a member of The Blues Project. He founded Blood Sweat & Tears. He recorded Super Session with Michael Bloomfield and Stephen Stills. He played the iconic organ part on Bob Dylan’s “Like A Rolling Stone”. He played the french horn introduction and piano on the Rolling Stones’ “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”. He discovered and produced Lynyrd Skynyrd. He co-wrote “This Diamond Ring”, the #1 hit for Gary Lewis and the Playboys. And he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

My featured song is “The Captain Of Her Heart”, the reimagined cover of the song by Double from the album Play by my band Project Grand Slam. Spotify link.
