Michael Bernard Bloomfield is an American guitarist and musician, born in Chicago, Illinois, who became one of the first famous music superstars of the 1960s to gain fame almost entirely thanks to His ability to play musical instruments, as he sang rarely before 1969. Respected for playing guitar, Bloomfield knew and played with many Chicago blues musicians before gaining his own reputation and being instrumental in his popularized blues in the mid-1960s. In 1965, he played on Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited, including his single Like a Rolling Stone, and performed with Dylan at that year's Newport Folk Festival. Bloomfield was ranked 22nd by Rolling Stone magazine in the 2003 list of "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" in 2003 and ranked 42nd by the same magazine in 2011. He was inducted into the Blues Fame Hall in 2012 and, as a member of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 .
