Topic: Harvey Brooks


  
  Music: 'Bitches' Brewmeister (Tucson Weekly . 03-08-99)
Brooks remembers that, while waiting for Dylan to show, Mike Bloomfield's stunning guitar noodling led Al Kooper, who sneaked into the session, to shelve his axe and move to the organ--an awkward moment that resulted in one of the most identifiable opening keyboard riffs in rock history.
Bloomfield was impressed with Brooks' input on the Dylan session and recruited the bassist for Electric Flag, one of the first bands to meld rock, blues and jazz.
But Brooks and his family have settled into a far less intense schedule here in Tucson, the bassist admitting that he is free of the tension of his Dylan and Davis days.

As always with Brooks, there are quite a few noteworthy minor roles too, like Madeline Kahn, who puts in a very memorable turn as saucy cabaret artist Lili Von Shtupp, and the equally memorable performance from Dom DeLuise as a camp Hollywood choreographer (don't ask).
