Taj Mahal singing 'Stagger Lee'. Perfection.

2024 here

No folks . No live show cause the T.V. was not invented yet. At the release of this song. Means the VALUE to AMERICAN HISTORY has no price.

Beatles grabbed this and others. Thought they had come with all this. Whats the statute of limitations on fraud?

I like this version the best.

I'm here because of a short clip of George Benson holding and playing Charlie Christian's Guitar...asking "How much u want for it?"

Les Paul lost a lot of blood sitting in on late night cutting sessions with Charlie.

My youth

And what will the useful idiots destroying English heritage today do with this gem? A voice for the ages no doubt offending their sensitve ears.

RTL Hitparade mit Nordmende Kofferradio und Strand Hole in my shoe gehört Schön ☀️☀️

I grew up in the big city and mostly listened to pop and rock growing up, but I fondly remember enjoying a few country songs...and this one most of all. It struck a deep chord in me 60 years ago that resonates to this very day.

Jack Bruce's style is unmistakable too.

Nine Inch Nails/Trent Reznor sent me down this rabbit hole. I'm glad to hear something so authentic and special.

These guys saved you. Its that simple. We were dying everyone, everywhere, everyday. Life was a beating. They gave you honesty, impecable lyrics, the music so tight, it was just a life perserver to save your ass. We will never forget this favor. When hanging by fingernails you appreciate the miraculous.

I had a friend who was homeless most of his life, he could sing this song with his guitar and sounded so good

👍🐾

It just dosent get any better than this and yes i did have holes in my shoes just love the music❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was a kid of 13 years when this was in the charts. Absolutely fantastic music from the Flower Power era.

Joy to the world🌍

Filling up my morning with Hank Williams standards.

Every time I tell folks this one of my fav Hank Williams song they think I like it because I’m lonesome. It’s real stupid

1940 f’ing 9 !!!! This song was ahead of its time because it still touches us now.

No way this is rated the saddest song by rolling Stones it's definitely nutshell

Great guitar solo!

Still sends shivers down my spine, this song. Great, biting tone. EC really at the top of his game here.

Yawn 😴😴😴😴😴

it's just so good.

Still listening. No need to ask every year 🤷🏻‍♂️😄

Only someone who knows nothing about playing guitar or Clayton's influence on everyone who came after him would show him any disrespect.

Es la mejor música Hermosa !!!❤❤❤❤

I am 14 and i grew up listening to old country and rock n roll...but this man...he created them both.

I will always loveyou sweet daddy rip darlin ❤

If the Blues was a town on a map that we have no desire to visit or stay in but one day sooner or later find ourselves waking up in "The Blues".

We hear you're leaving, that's okay I thought our little wild time had just begun I guess you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run But if you have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't want to call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home I have a friend in town, he's heard your name We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row We could stay inside and play games, I don't know And you could have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't want to call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home You tell yourself you're not my kind But you don't even know your mind And you could have a change of heart Rikki don't lose that number You don't want to call nobody else Send it off in a letter to yourself Rikki don't lose that number It's the only one you own You might use it if you feel better When you get home

Has a bit of a Beatles vibe. Totally unexpected.

Now that Fleetwood Mac is apparently in limbo with the passing of Christine McVie, I wonder if John and/or Mick would consider working on a blues project with Eric

Many have tried to emulate Blake, none have come close even maestro Van Bergeyjk. But John Jackson got close at times. I saw John up close several times in the 70's and early 80's. His bearclaw fingertips were much the same as Blakes. There' s this theory about finger shape and proportion. Obviously that's not all to it though.

Western Swing

Mason got a raw deal from the band. He was basically forced out and why? He wrote great songs, sang great, played guitar great. Head scratcher.
