Blues part II

Eddie 'Cleanhead' Vinson Mr. Cleanhead

 

I haven't heard him in a while! I find he burnt himself out with that album. I have to find something more current. There were a lot of hopes for him.

Bad to the Bone-George Thorogood

 

Meh, why not?! John Lee Hooker- One Bourbon....

 

A nice and tasty one from Robert Cray Eric Clapton -One Love

Twenty

 

I lived close to Hooker (70's 80's) he used to preform in Monterey a lot, never made it to see him. I used to say, "one of us is going to die before I get to" and I'll be dam.

 

kept rejecting this on youtube so gonna see if this works

Nice version there Darlene, I saw that Paul Schaffer(sp?) was there too with his bald head!

 

I saw Bobby's bus in San Diego when I was young. Not knowing they traveled in buses I thought, now theres a fan, with his name all over it.

OK, one last one and I wish I had headphones right now, can't disturb the gf.

James Cotton-The Creeper :wave:zzz

OMG James should eat more veggies! Sound sucks BTW Got My Mojo Workin'

 

While I was still in Monterey County on this radio station ( now thats a story ) I'm assuming it was right after his death played an old interview. The interviewer was totally clueless to his life style not quite knowing what to ask or remark on.
Bloomfield told him they played in the toughest areas and black bars in Chicago, who to their surprise accepted them.
He went on to say, "to give you an idea how rough it was there, one night this black guy walked in slammed his wifes head on the bar and said, "give this bitch a beer".
After a moment of silence the interviewer asked, "did he hurt her"?
Bloomfield answered,"man, you aren't getting it", he brought in a severed head and slammed it on the bar probably after some horrific fight.
I was waiting for the thump after that of the interviewer hitting the floor.

 

Hehe, I don't get it either Darlene. :confused

 

Sorry, folks...been too busy, but here are some to make up for it.
The Yardbirds - Louise
(with Clapton)

The Yardbirds - "Train Kept a Rollin' "
(with Page)

The Yardbirds - Heart Full Of Soul
(with Beck)

 

Norah Jones (she crosses from blues, jazz and country)

don't get what?

 

What you mentioned about the radio station interview, I should remember to quote.

 

I'm sorry, I must have a case of the stupids today :confused
still don't know what you don't get, I do tend to skip around, I talk the same way LOL

 

Meh , no worries Darlene, all's fine. How a bit of John Mayall Bluesbreakers with Eric Clapton - Hideaway :dancer This one almost gives me the shivers! :guitar Ya know, I have to post some vids that don't have Clapton in there!

OK, Room to Move starts the shivers.

 

I guess this one doesn't belong in a 'Blues' thread but it just blows me away so there it is.. California Puts a big grin on though.

OK one last one. All Your Love Later all.:wave

 

Nice on the Yardbirds muskie.

 

Aww, Norah Jones. Thanks Darlene.

 

I'll leave you with David Brecker. Let me know if you like you like or not.

Michael Brecker from the DVD "Louie Bellson & His Big Band"

 

This is killing me, can't hear the new ones right now cuz I have my breathing treatment machine running. I keep turning it off to hear the music, better stop before I turn blue literally. :crybaby

That is a really good song, Darlene.
I vote it the best so far. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/cool14.gif

 

This is one of those "it ain't really the blues" songs, but like the man says in it, just trying to have some fun.
John Prine - Illeagal Smile

 

I really like this guy. I never really considered him Country, more folk, but.....
John Prine - Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore

 

No one is adding to the country thread, so I brought the country here :tas
They do Blues:
ZZ Top - Blue Jean Blues

They Boogie:
ZZ Top - La Grange

And they like to drive:
ZZ Top - Mexican Blackbird
(This is one of my all-time favorite songs)

 

Sorry, this was 'sposed to go in the country thread.

 

Hey, I forgot this guy was Canadian. For you augie.
FRANK MARINO & MAHOGANY RUSH - I'M A KING BEE

 

Yup Marino and Rush have been great over the years, plus Frank's a homeboy too.

 

Thats southren rock, just like Stevie Ray, Lynyrd Skynyrd, not quite country

 

Thats nice, an old Slim Harpo number, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IP9RU4uHnF8

 

Not so typical blues, close tho, didn't even know he died, bummer he discovered Joe Cocker. The credits on this album are impressive,

(Rod Stewart and Elton John. Rolling Stone, Ron Wood, on electric guitar and acoustic guitarist and Sam Mitchell.) 1971 I believe :confused

Hmm, I guess that was a Freudian slip on my part in not getting the song title as it should be. I'll leave the typo as it 'fits'.

 

I didn't see that, but it does fit.
RIP Jeff
