Outstanding blues album...

[sixxswine]

This album is fucking brilliant and features some greats of the dleta blues scene. It's amazing watching people in their late 70's, 80's and 90's playing their hearts out. The blues is where originated rock people. There a guy on here that was with Robert Johnson on the night he died...The history...

If you do buy it reverse order, watch the DVD first then check out the CD. It will make you appreciate it that much more.

Looks cool. Great cast of people.

Now we just need Richie Sambo to make another quality blues album.

There's this part where "Gatemouth" Brown pulls out a fiddle in mid-song to solo, where a guitar would be... I tell you I was floored then I got chills.
It was fucking fantastic! It sounded like a sax and a pedal steel going at the sametime!

I don't listen to a lot of the blues, but I have the utmost respect for the genre, especially those old codgers featured here. Think I'll have to get the DVD of this as it is a monumental event getting them all on one album. Thanks for the mention Sixx!

It'll probably be awhile before I get to see it. I'm too busy with work right now to watch DVDs (I work on computer and it's also my dvd player), but it's in my Netflix queue as we speak! Hopefully I can get to it in the next few weeks.

That might be, but he uses a blues surname....

 

[mdmatt4ever]

i like kenny wayne

 

[Unfaithfully Metalhead]

the only reason i know that is because i used to read guitar magazines every month back in the day when i used to play alot... and one month was a exclusive interview with Johnny... i often wonder if he was telling the truth or just a opportunist riding on Robert Johson's famous name... no one can confirm his story or that he knew Robert.. or any pics of them together that i know of...

Well, each year the same here...sometimes I know one or two bands, but the others are a mistery to me. There's also a very big variation in between very early and later blues/rock. 2 years ago there was a French band "Stinky Lou and the Goon Mat", who played very early style of blues, with some self made instruments. They were simply amazing ! after the show they played another 5 houres (!!!!!!!!) in our local blues club !

Thanks for the heads up Sixx! I bought it the very next day after I read this and have been playing the hell out of it since. I haven't watched the DVD yet though.

 

[buzzardbutt]

Holy crap! I havent heard anything from Kenny in a long time.
I love those guys.
I just love the blues.

 

[buzzardbutt]

Any of you guys heard of The Gutter Brothers?
I like that band.
