About Barry Goldberg
Artist Biography
Barry Goldberg was a regular fixture in the white blues firmament of the mid-'60s that seemed to stretch from Chicago to New York. A keyboardist (organ seemed to be his specialty), Barry was an in-demand sessionman -- he appeared on a Mitch Ryder album, for instance -- along with Al Kooper and his blues-playing contemporary from the original Butterfield band, Mark Naftalin. Goldberg was a member of Charlie Musselwhite's first band, contributing great piano and organ lines to the Stand Back! album (his work on "Cristo Redentor" is moody and introspective, with a strong jazz-inflected feel that retains Goldberg's strong blues roots) and a handful of others throughout the decade. Barry Goldberg died on January 22, 2025, at the age of 82. ~ Cub Koda
