- All Your Love Lyrics
All your love, baby can it be mine
All your love, baby can it be mine
I hate to be the one
The one love you left behind
All your love, baby don't put around
All your love, baby don't put around
Love is one thing baby
You won't find on the ground
All your love, I've got to have one day
All your love, I've got to have one day
Don't you leave me baby
Please come back this way
Glad to see so many fans of Sam. Guy has to be one of the most underrated bluesmen out there, don't y'all think?
definitely!!!!!!!
Yeah
Yes he is, that's for sure.
Absolutely.
Most definately. His playing is superb.
RIP Magic Sam (February 14, 1937 - December 1, 1969), aged 32
You will be remembered as a legend.
Thank you ,God bless you!!
“32” my god how come he died so young?
@@childwallred He died from a heart attack
On the strength of these 2 live tracks, he's one of my all time favourite artists. His studio stuff didn't capture the real Magic.
I can't get over this clip! His band is tight as hell and their control during "Lookin good" is stunning. That drummer looks cool as a cucumber too don't he? Like he doesn't even have to try.
yeah I think it's literally one of the grooviest clips of anything that exists - killer!
If only he lived old like Buddy Guy.Imagine what we would have!
One of the things I always appreciated about Mr. Maghett were his incredible vocals. Of course he could play like fire and his influence is well-documented, but that absolutely clear and smooth voice of his was so unique. Especially, since so many of his peers went in the opposite direction. Magic Sam was belting out those piercing high-octaves, while nearly everyone else was growling into the mic. It was almost as if his guitar playing was framed around his vocals, instead of the other way around. It's why you hear all those beautiful little fills between verses.
Magic Sam could sing like an angel and play like the devil, which makes the man pretty much incomparable to nearly everyone else.
I concur totally. Now that we hear several of his great live performances we see just how great a vocalist he was. He didn't have to take a back seat to anyone
Agreed. Sam could fucking sing!
I recently discover to this great blues man. I would like to know more about him, but not about Wikipedia, do you have a better source? Thanks, I'm listening from 🇲🇽 😁
Magic Sam had the singing vibrato effect. As did Little Richard in some of his songs ...it adds richness to the voice.
@@michaelschulz336 on guitar not mic
He's one of the greatest guitarists in history - and most underrated. Thanks for posting.
Saw him in a small club six months before he died and spent the better part of my life telling people what they missed if they hadn't seen him
he played as good as anyone and could sing like Sam Cook
he;s the reason I wasn't so excited about seeing Jimi Hendrix at big arena
He took someone else’s (Earl’s) instrument and made it obey his every command. Not easy to do. Magical in every sense.
In very loving memory of Mr. Samuel Gene Maghett (1937 - 1969 R.I.P. // gone but NOT forgotten).
Thank you very kindly!!God blees you!
Just discovering Magic Sam today and shame on me for not finding him sooner. What a dynamite singer, player and artist. Will be listening to him more and play along with my guitar.
Sam had the most soulful 'blueswailing' voice. Great guitar stylist, too.
In my humble opinion today’s “Blues Star guitarists” are nowhere near this level of playing. They seem to be missing the rawness. They don’t bleed into it like he did
Hard agree!
Anyone that knows music , knows Magic Sam was somth'n special ... his tone , voice. songs , his humility
Man, that groove they kick into at 4:30 is just ridiculous!!! WOW!! I can't get enough....
Also, FYI to those who are confused, Earl Hooker is not the same person as Magic Sam, and Magic Slim is not the same person as Magic Sam either. They're three different people.
Thanks for the info and great video pmDUDE
Earl Hooker was related to John Lee Hooker, and sadly, like Magic Sam, died way too young.
Magic Slim (Morris Holt) was mentored by Magic Sam McGhett who gave Slim the nickname
i think someone stole sam's strat prior to the gig and he used hookers univox les paul
Yeah took me years to learn that! hahaha
I love that the drummer uses his wallet to shut down the snare drum. If that's not kamakazie sitting-in wisdom I will eat my hat.
Yes....
Odie Payne.
Anyone knows that trick. A microphone bag works, too.
@@michaelsimmons5710 ain’t Odie Payne ...Clifton chenier’s drummer
There are those who do and those that do not understand the blues .As Albert King once said at a concert I attended if you ain't got the blues who ain't got a soul. The blues played by the black American's are paramount there are those who understand the blues and those who don't. For those who do it touches your soul like no other music ever can. Yes, the black blues legends make the ultimate blues music.
Preach man.
So sick of hearing about stevie ray vaughan, clapton and all those other cats.
Magic Sam just had this cool coool demeanor... honestly his vibe is unmatched.
52 people got concrete in their ears & lead in their hearts. We don't need your negativity. You must've clicked on this by mistake looking for a magician pulling rabbits out of hats. This is pure magic of a totally different order! Chicago blues at it's finest & Magic Sam was one hell of a guitar picker & singer with a soul to match Otis Rush & Buddy Guy. Phenomenal stuff!
Beautiful voice and tone
Great voice one of the best guitar players in tone of all time
What a shame this incredible musician died just when he was getting some well deserved credit & exposure. THE sound !
For all of the guitarists worrying about their rig... he absolutely killed it on a borrowed guitar! Work on your playing and not your pedalboard.
+Jeff Swanson What I wouldn't give to play that guitar though!
Don Deering It's an old univox LP copy from Japan. I snagged one just like it from my buddies dad he had been holding onto for a homeless dude named joe, dude died and it hung out in the closet for years until they showed it to me (I was in a band with his boy) and I fell in love. $100 later and some love and new strings and dude let me tell you, the tone is crazy! Totally unique guitar
Yep
All the "magic" is in Mr. Maghett's innate sense of rhythm, phrasing, and vibrato.
Pedals are boring (besides a wah)
I always get Magic Sam and Earl Hooker mixed up because of this concert footage. Then I realized Sam was playing Hooker’s guitar and they weren’t the same person. Ahahaha This is a serious serious blues band.
After many years I can begin to play some of this...a sound haunting me almost 40 years. That's why he's Magic Sam !
One of the meanest blues voices and guitar tone. Just mean 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I gig almost every weekend, I'm a Guitar player for almost 35 years now! for crying out loud! how come I've never heard of this guy till now! oh dammit i'm so mad at my self aaargh! this guy is just pure raw awesome...
Try some Danny Gatton. www.thehumblermovie.com/
Go onto CZcams look at videos qof all the old blues folk festivals in USA germany ect even the pop festivals in 60s had blues amd all sorts even indian trad , you'll find many gems that are seriously underlooked im only 20 but I will say it music now is so soft and soulless this is where it was at
I was listening to Magic Sam from cassettes I would buy from truck stops. I was the only 13 year old kid with a blues collection and loving it.
Point.
You’ve discovered this great music now. Not never. Congratulations and welcome. Dig in, brother.
one of the greatest chicago blues guitarrist!
legend
Wow! Magic fingers and heart plus magic Earl Hookers guitar equals music heaven. Thanks for sharing.
I watch this video at least once a week. 🙏🏼❤️
¿Hasta dónde hubiera llegado Magic Sam de no haber muerto? Portentoso cantante, guitarrista moderno, magnífico compositor. Su legado y sus alumnos lo mantendrán por siempre vigente.
Si. Es verdad. Su Español es much better than mine pero mi gusta sus pensamientos con la música de Magic Sam. The thoughts “Ring True”. Gracias. 👍
I'm into 50's Rock'n'roll, and I love the blues, played it live for a good 15 years,..this is mainly where it came from,..nobody can tell me otherwise,...excellent post,..Magic Sam, another who left far too early
Magic Sam died on my 20th birthday. I had tickets to see him at The Troubadour the next night. Sam didn't make it. I will always be sorry I picked the wrong night.
He was actually 32 not 20
outlawbilly279 he was saying he was 20 when Sam died
Oh man - nobody did it better.
This cat sadly left us far to young and too early in life. Magic Sam died at the age of 50 of a heart attack in 1968, sad sad. One of the finest of the west side Chicago blues masters with a fine fine catalog. Grateful to the Cobra Records catalog is still available and folks can enjoy this genius of the blues art form ! May he rest in Peace..
He passed away at 32 not 50
@@drewsg3 A HEART ATTACK AT 32?! HOLY GEEZ!!!!
An absolute master of the guitar and a superb singer who died before his time. Using Earl Hooker"s guitar. I agree with other poster very late 1960s.
Mmm Definately !!! This album, this man, and this song is a Classic. This relic deserves to be remembered for generations to come!!!
Man I found his music and lately, it is all I've been jamming to...Damn love the groove😮
Just found Magic Sam!! Wow! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾❤️💛💚
Whenever I play Magic Sam it puts a huge smile on my face..RIP SAM. some of the best music ever, bleeding with soul from all sides and a voice and guitar that really gets you in the gut. That stuff that gives you chills.
Magic Sam-West Side Soul on Delmark Records... a killer blues album! I've bought it five times so far.
flagemdown66 Delmark is a great label !
What a set of pipes on this cat.. dangerous indeed!!
On a borrowed guitar, no less. What tone! What a voice!
One of the finest live performances EVER! Smooth, soulful voice with raw skill on the guitar. I remember first seeing this, I just came to watch All Your Love, but Lookin' Good instantly hooked me and never ceases to make me shake about, I want it played at my funeral (this rockin' version) for sure. Magic Sam was the best of the best bluesmen.
Hands down dopest dope I've ever smoked
Really though you can't top this man on guitar and vocals no joke it can't be done it hasn't
wow that proves that magic sam is one of the greatest
RIP MAGIC SAM
Such soulful tone...incredibly talented blues guitarist.
Smokin'! JESUS. I need a cigarette after "Lookin Good" and I don't even smoke. Damn, that's good.
yessir haha
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
he died at 32 years old..clapton is so lucky to be still alive after all those deathes in the industry of blues
There is footage of Magic Sam and Earl Hooker both playing at this gig. The multiple videos/occasions are all from the same gig. Earl clearly just let him use the guitar for the gig. The gig was in Germany 1969. You can find the footage on the a dvd about the american folk blues festival
I hope that clears things up.
So DAMN good to see this performance back here on YT where it belongs!! Excellent stuff! It's a shame more people don't know about the magnificent Magic Sam......
Whoa. He'is Great .👍🏻👌👍🏻👌👍🏻🎤🎸. Great guitar player great vocalist and great Feeling. I love it 👍🏻👌👍🏻👌👍🏻. Best Wishes from France 🇲🇫
Magic Sam is so my favorite. Have you heard the double record set on Delmark, Magic Sam Live??? One side is live at the Ann Arbor blues fest and the other is from a neighborhood blues club that is so killing. Late 60s, forget which year. Bless the dudes who held the tape recorder.
Sam's boogie ranks among the coolest guitar tracks ever recorded. Thanks for posting.
First time I've seen this guy. I think it's love at first sight. What a player!
If you can spend a better six minutes on youtube I would love to know about it. The autobiographical intro to the sexiest blues song you will ever hear, followed by one of the best Blues Boogies ever laid down. Magic Sam! Damn its good stuff!
and Sam didn't even have a laser light show!!
taj his playing was a smoke show
Great sinuous camera work captures the amazement
And that Ladies and Gentlemen is how it's done!!! What an axeman!!!
@ theonemodifier, I believe this is 1969--this was among the last times Earl Hooker performed before he died, and Sam was playing the same day. This footage is probably of the Chicago Blues Festival which I believe was on August 30th. Both Earl and Sam were there.
As I understand it, this is why Sam has Earl Hooker's name on his Guitar. It's Earl's Instrument, and his band too, Sam had neither with him!
This has to be my favorite live footage of Magic Sam. He's playing Earl Hooker's guitar and the only reason I know that is from an out of print Rounder Records collection of Earl. Love it!
God, what an amazing tune, and not even played on his own guitar!! Such insane talent.
If you think there was some magic going on here.....just think about the magic that was going on with the "piece of wire that was strung between two ole nails on the side of the barn ....and a bottle to slide up and down on it"....!!!! Now that's da Blues !
Sam was truly Magic. Love this dude. RIP.
I totally agree with what you say about the importance of phrasing - its everything! In music as in life!!
OMG It just get better and better every time i listen to this! Maybe my favorite of all time. I have been playing guitar for decades and it took decades to hear something so profound. Ill keep trying to learn this but Im not sure I will come close enough to pull it off. -Still blown away! (peace all)
Mr. Maghett himself was only two decades old when he started his recording career.
@@manly1974 20 ?
Had this tune in my head all day...sounds so nice on the guitar. He owns this like no one else.
Lol, he didn't even own the guitar he was holding.:)
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 well i guess you could say he owned it for this performance, earl done a serious set but really sam stole the show he died two mounth ls after this so he was quite literally singing for his life cant be topped so amazing
@@jungleninja8415 Yep...I just had another supernatural session with Magic Sam on guitar...made me feel renewed and happy.
Earl Hookers guitar. Another monster player.
The swag and groove it’s insane.
His voice blows me away. that first note he hits, wow!
Straight from Mississippi to the West Side! Does it get any better than this? RIP Sam.
This is Totally Awesome, He's is my favorite Blues Singer Player, I love this! Fantastic
I love the wallet on the snare acting as a damper.
3.30 onwards... That TONE! I want THAT tone.
+Martin Craggs Isn't is awesome!!!
I love that tone too. He's definitely playing very loud and pushing his cabinet very hard to get that sizzle.
It's a very different tone from the one on 'All Your Love' but same pickup and gear overall. I think there is a fuzz box in play but I dunno what. Devastating tone !!
Yes, I agree. There's nothing like the sound of overdriven tubes. The pedals have gotten really close over the last 10 years or so, but I still like the real thing. Kind of like a real Hammond B3 compared to a sampler.
All the "magic" is in Mr. Maghett's innate sense of rhythm, phrasing, and vibrato.
ok i found one..... am very happy about this too..... he is playing in Chicago and his name is Dave Herrero..... he is the best up and coming blues player ive heard in along time... if you like blues you should check him out, buy a CD, a concert ticket and support real blues.....
this guy died young, an obvious Blues legend
One of the real West Side greats and he left us far too soon. This video is a real gem - the performance and the interview preceding it. Thanks very much!
Man his intonation on the guitar is freakis I've been planned 20 years that's that sound is incredible
This is from a European show, that's why they are playing through Sound City amps and Sam borrowed Earl's guitar.
It was one of the "American Folk And Blues" concert series that ran through the 60's. (if they were in America they probably would be using Fender amps and Sam would be playing a hollow body Guild or a Fender Stratocaster.
You're probably right--Earl Hooker's final tour was to Europe and that would also explain the German subtitles : )... All I know is that Sam passed on (December '69) two months after Earl Hooker began his tour in Europe (in October '69).
there is video of earl hooker at this show playing the archtop. maybe they were just messing around, but they could be playing ukuleles and still be some of the most bad ass men to walk this earth.
Thank you for the clarification. Sam and Earl shine on.
+flagemdown66 - also explains the German subtitles, and the Sonor drums, also German.
The name of the tour, to be exact, is the American Folk Blues Festival, often represented AFBF. It was funded/produced by two German businessmen, Horst Lippmann and Fritz Rau. This ought to lead you to the rest of it.
Stunning playing and a lovely sincere personality. Tragic loss at such a young age.
Awesome post keeping Magic Sam alive in our hearts!
This is the best thing on youtube.
Damn straight
Jaw-droppingly so. Hallelujah!
A good soul I work with told me about Sam at work tonight and I am so thank full. I thought I knew all the blues greats but I never heard of this man. Frickin killer blues , thank u Willie T for turning me on to some fantastic blues I didnt know about.
"and I loved it....". BEST EVER, taken too soon. Props to the team recording too, great audio/video.
I have it on CD and I love it!! The Ann Arbor Blues Fest was in August 1969 and the Chicago set was at the Alex Club in 1963. Great set!!!
This guy ripped up the 1st Ann Arbor Blues Festival in '69. I was lucky enough to be there, and he was absolutely amazing. I wish he had lived longer, because he would have been one of the bluesmen to benefit from the added popularity of the blues. GREAT stuff!
how can this be real? the whole band is fire!
that's Chicago blues :)
Sam's tone, feel, and playing at 0.48 through the entire All Your Love is just incredible. Incredible. This had me from the first note/ riff. Seeing playing like this makes me forget just about all pedals and effects. This is all heart, soul, and fingers..... Both touching and inspiring. Huge thanks for posting! Sam wasn't with us long, but he is a legend and will not be forgotten.
He was the Hendrix of the blues. Left us too soon.
One of Jimi's favorite guitarists......
Still Magic.
Blessings

+Lauren Peot There's a long list of "Jimi's favorite guitarists." I've heard same said of Earl Hooker, Buddy Guy, Hubert Sumlin, not sure who all else but he had good ears and was just (I think) trying to point people to something beyond what they'd get from the radio.
+Lauren Peot Albert King was another person, I can't possibly remember all of them, but I started to make a note of statements that 'Jimi Hendrix liked so-and-sos playing.'
I never get sick of watching/listening to this! What a voice!!! What a player!!!! ONE Bad Bad Mother!!!!
I never get tired of watching this video. Magic Sam Live is one of my priced vinyl.
LOLOL LOVE THAT THE DRUMMER HAS HIS WALLET ON HIS DRUM SET....I DARE ANYONE TRY TO TAKE IT!!...LOLOL!!
"Well I always did like the blues from a kid..." Me too Mr. Maghett. Me too.
These great recordings are available on CD or to download. They appear on the album 'Live at Sylvio's as tracks 16 & 17. Enjoy!
...but teach a man how to fish...
Thank you!
You're welcome Cat.
We have always been so damn phenomenal
I got turned on to this man's music about a decade ago. It amazes how his music failed to reach my attention for so many years. Magic Sam was great.
HIS SWING IS BEAUTIFUL HOLY SHIT
SAM!!! Your wrecking this much havoc with a suit and tie on and someone else's guitar??? Sly Stone once said in the studio -- and being that Sly's first group the Sons of Ray with Billy Preston had a blues focus-- when he met jimi Hendrix, they both shared awe for Mr Magic Sam = an emperor of the blues! True dat from legend to legend.
MAGIC SAM............the name says it all.......
"I had a Thang up against the wall" even Sams dialect is funky/soulful
This is how it's done people,,,,,Miss you Sam,,,miss your great performances,,you always came thru for us,,,,
