T-Bone/JATP

A good friend turned me on to this:

Some very nice T-Bone.

T-Bone.... much

[Harold_Z]

Yeah...just great.

Guitarists reading this..do you think he used flats? Sounds like flats to me.

Yea, that is one of my very favorite video clips - a virtual summary of the musical genius of T-Bone Walker in a couple of minutes. That was the very first approach to single string electric blues guitar, and still unbeatable to this day.

I loves me some T-Bone.

Thanks Paul for sharing. Man, that was great. When you get the opportunity please post this on the "other forum". Thanks.

[WD45]

Yep. AWESOME.

T-Bone. Aaron was the KING!

The whole of that 'Jazz 625' JATP at Poplar Town Hall (2 shows - about 1hr 30) is amazing. Not only Hawk, Diz and Zoot but also Clark Terry, Teddy Wilson, James Moody and Louis Bellson. The 'T-Bone' performance is a great little interlude - totally incongruous with the music coming before and after (some of the musicians looked a bit bemused by it and I'm not sure what the audience made of it - muted applause) but, in retrospect, a gem.

Done. Actually, I assumed it had already been posted there.

There is another interesting video of Albert Collins and Jimmy Vaughan watching this video of T-Bone together, and discussing what T-Bone's music/influence means to them.

Originally, country blues was a vocal music with guitar (or other instrumental) comments and backing. The advent of rock changed the equation. White boys ruled.
