    Lyrics:
    I don't believe in competition
    Ain't nobody else like me around
    I don't need your inquisition
    It aint' that hard to figure it out
    Give it up now
    Play it cool
    Give it up now
    Play it cool
    All the rules that you use and abuse and
    No illusion can take this confusion
    Give it up now
    Don't let me down
    Don't think too much of my disposition
    You already know whats goin' down
    Don't want to be your exhibition no
    I don't want nobody hangin' around
    Give it up now
    Play it cool
    Give it up now
    Play it cool
    All the rules that you use and abuse and
    No illusion can take this confusion
    Give it up now
    Don't let me down
    Give it up now
    Play it cool
    Give it up yeah
    Play it cool
    All the rules that you use and abuse and
    No illusion can take this confusion
    Give it up now
    Don't let me down
    Play it cool
    Play it cool
    Play it cool
    Play it cool
    Give it up
    Give it up
    Give it up now

    Gary Clark Jr. is definitely the man. Just bringing great music to the people. Embrace it, we need it.

    If we were living in the late 60's right now ,this song would been playing all radio stations and be an instant hit. It's unfortunate today you don't hear this on radio stations or rarely.

    Go listen to the rest of the album. The guy is all over the place. He can play anything. The rest of the album is what brings the Jimi comparisons.

    @Kunzler3 Před 11 lety +1

    Blues is the backbone of 80% of genres out there. I agree with everything except blues became recognized in the 20's. Blues started around 1810.

  • @MrKol55
    @MrKol55 Před 10 lety +58

    Gary just robbed at Grammy's. Much respect 4 Dave and Paul but c'mone man! There ain't nobody touching what Gary is doing.

    • @omgitsLindsay
      @omgitsLindsay Před 10 lety +8

      Agreed. Dave is actually my favourite musician, and I really like Cut Me Some Slack, but I still think Gary should have won the Grammy.

  • @Savaril
    @Savaril Před 11 lety +3

    He's not Hendrix in term of similiarity, but Gary Clark Jr has created a very particular fusion of blues and contemporary R&B/soul music, in a similar manner to how Hendrix seamlessly merged blues music with psychedelic and folk music.
    Plus, GCJ's guitar skills are incredible. Like Hendrix, he's a guitarist who knows how to do fingerpicking on an acoustic incredibly well.

  • @Jiinx123

    This. This is why Gary Clark, Jr. rocks. Sure, the blues guys all love him, but he's bigger than that. R&B, soul, funk. It's music. He plays it.

    • @dantimber

    that's a gorgeous red Epiphone that Gary's playing...He can afford a Gibson...I'm surprised he's playing an Epi.......he's so brilliant...he can make any guitar sound amazing!!

    • @secularscot9804
      @secularscot9804 Před 9 lety

      You can't afford that either, it's a vintage Epiphone from before they became a Gibson umbrella company. Probably set you back $5000

    • @Whovianize
      @Whovianize Před 9 lety

      yeah, I'm aware of that already. I know it's not one of the Epiphones for $400 from Guitar Center. hahaha :p But it still surprises me that he picked that brand even prior to Gibson take over. Thank you for free education Secular Scot. I appreciate it :)

    To be fair, it could be argued that the 40's and 50's were definitely a pervasive time in Electric Blues' history. The Chess era was instrumental in Rock n' Roll's genesis.

  • @morganvachon
    @morganvachon Před 11 lety

    If all you go by is this one song, then sure. But listen to some of his other stuff before dismissing him out of hand. He channels everything from Clapton to Berry to Johnson to Guy to King, even SRV, yet has his own "feel" that brings a freshness to blues/jazz/funk that is sorely needed.

  • @joecass3025
    @joecass3025 Před 11 lety

    you got the facts a bit out of order... it started in the 20's/30's with Blues Music, in the 40's/50's it evolved into rock and roll, 'Doo-Wop' and Soul Music. In the early 60's, British musicians picked up on American Blues music, in the late 60's/early 70's, psychedelia and heavy metal music. There were many black guitarists before and after Chuck Berry. And, your forgot Prince in the 80's, still kickin' in his 50's. Hendrix changed the sound of Rock and Roll forever.
