Alternative rockBluesRhythm and blues

Al Kooper is a Alternative rock and Blues act. Their catalogue also touches Rhythm and blues. Their sound grew out of Annette Peacock, Richie Hayward, Barry Goldberg, Billy Joe Shaver and Elvin Bishop. Those roots explain a lot about how Al Kooper arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Humble Pie, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers, Ten Years After, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band and Hot Tuna, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into H. P. Lovecraft, The Blues Project, Charlie McCoy, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Dion, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 31 connections around Al Kooper, reaching back through Annette Peacock and forward to H. P. Lovecraft.
