ROY BLUMENFELD

Back in 1967, the mythic ‘Summer of Love’, if you were in New York City the place to be was the Cafe Au Go Go on MacDougal Street, Greenwich Village where the star band was The Blues Project, a group on the cutting edge of improvisational, classical, blues and jazz. Roy Blumenfeld was the drummer, the heartbeat for the band.

In 1967 Al Kooper and Steve Katz left the band to join Blood Sweat and Tears and Danny Kalb took leave of absence, The Blues Project released a third album "Live At Town Hall" consisting of live tapes and studio out-takes.

.Over the years Roy has performed and recorded with the most illustrious soul, funk, blues and rock legends: Chuck Berry, John Lee Hooker, Carlos Santana, Paul Butterfield, Elvin Bishop, Nick Gravenites, Barry Goldberg, David LaFlamme (of It's A Beautiful Day), Barry Melton (of Country Joe and the Fish), Banana (of The Youngbloods), Peter Albin (of Big Brother and the Holding Company: the band that launched Janis Joplin) and Robert Hunter (of The Grateful Dead)... to name just a few. He’s recently toured and recorded with the re-formed Electric Flag, who are themselves a who's who of soul-funk-rock and he’s still working with a number of former musical colleagues including Blues Project buddies.
