“Fooled Around and Fell in Love” by Elvin Bishop (f/ Erik J. Brown)

Long before his 1976 hit, Elvin Bishop was already one of the world’s most respected blues guitarists. Everyone from the Grateful Dead to Bo Diddley was eager to collaborate with him, and his work with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band eventually earned him a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Despite his confidence and experience as a world-class musician, Bishop had the humility to recognize when a bandmate was better suited to sing the song. That selfless decision gave us the version of “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” we know today. It’s a perfect feel-good classic that has been featured in everything from Friday Night Lights to Guardians of the Galaxy. This week, we’re joined by bestselling author Erik J. Brown to explore the career and music of Elvin Bishop and decide whether we should love him or leave him alone.
