Odd that you mention Junior: I was listening to the local weekend blues show and they featured a live album by Junior Wells featuring the song below. When I heard this version, I thought of posting to this thread, but got sidetracked; of particular note is the guitar work of Phil Guy, brother of Junior's sometime collaborator, the great Buddy Guy:
Here is the original version by Slim Harpo that I remember from my teenage years: <O>

That's one good song. It's been many years since I last heard it played by Tony Joe White and thouht it's his song, but it isn't. Thanks for the info. SNAFU - Lock & Key |

While looking for the Junior Wells song, I came across this bit of video; it is Big Mama Thornton singing her song Ball and Chain, covered by Janis Joplin along with Big Brother. Backing Big Mama on guitar is Buddy Guy. When Buddy takes the guitar break, listen and watch as you see the seeds of the guitar style later adopted by Buddy's close friend, Stevie Ray Vaughn. SRV was about 15 or 16 years old when this footage was shot, so this is a glimpse of the master who would later influence the student. A note: there is a better visual version of this footage, but this version has a superior sound quality:
I'm posting this link for those who have expressed an interest in the Blues: I got a copy of this film several years ago on a DVD I found in a bargain bin in a video store and bought for about $2.00. The story behind the film is rather interesting: In 1971, the blues-loving film crew for the TV Western series Gunsmoke had some hiatus time and took off to film a traveling Blues revue featuring, among others, Muddy Waters and Big Mama Thornton. This 'accidental documentary' filmed by the film crew for their own use is one of the best documents of what the real Blues was like: <O>

Sorry to post more tan once a day to this thread, but I just came across a really great video posted back in mid-January on YouTube; the picture quality may not be the best, but the performance is legendary. I have heard and own several varying quality audio recordings of this, but have never before seen the film. Here is The Jimi Hendrix Experience performing live at Royal Albert Hall in 1969:

Zéca Afonso - Bada de Outono
A intervention singer and possible one of the greatest faces of our revolution, passed ways 30 years ago. A few of the best songs sang by him! Last edited by Rhodes; 02-23-17 at 06:40 PM. |
