The best ever
That's blues
Well, not the best quality for the latter half - but, hey, I'll take any video recording of Jimmy Reed! Such a sweet soft-spoken guy. He will be missed.
Considering that he sold more records than most of the other big blues artists, it's weird there is so little footage of Jimmy.
@@steveboyle184 I certainly do enjoy the works of Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, and Little Walter - but Jimmy Reed is #1 in my book! I think not enough people appreciate how influential he was. The Rolling Stones, for one, cited Jimmy Reed as one of their major influences.
Bobby Gentry covered his song & made it popular.
This is the first live video of Jimmy Reed I've seen on CZcams. Maybe I'm missing a bunch of videos that are out there somewhere.
Same
What the hell is up with the cameraman? They don't want to show his hands?
It's the editor, I'm afraid.
@@andrewelliott4436 And the compere is no better.
How can we screw a Jimmy Reed clip up? Edit it so the viewers experience vertigo
Now, CZcams, you'd better not interrupt Jimmy Reed to give us some political ad!!
