February 5th – Al Kooper’s Birthday
Happy Birthday Al Kooper! let’s listen to “Green Onions” Yeah!
Today is Al Kooper’s birthday. Al was born in 1944 and while none of his solo records or the first Blood, Sweat and Tears albums can’t be found in my collection.

Also there are the album he recorded with Shuggie Otis and Rekooperation.Here’s some background on Al Kooper from Wiipedia….
