12/31/2007 | A highly influential mid 60's band, The Blues Project did of course play blues, but also delved into jazz, folk- rock, pop, and early psychedelia. Their records sold reasonably well, and their live performances were influential on the San Francisco bands. Among others, the jack of all trades- multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter, author, singer, etc, Al Kooper was in this group, as was Danny Kalb, who was a respected guitarist. The Blues Project didn't last particularly long, though they did reform a few times, and members from this group went on to form Seatrain and Blood, Sweat, and Tears. An important band.
