I learned to play blues harmonica,best thing I ever did,it.brings peace.ill never stop playing and writing songs

sweet job

The blues is music, it's the bittersweet side of the rhythm of life. It's that hot summer night with no AC, but you have a ride or die woman to hold.

I can't contain his soul. He breaths music and aura

Let me say this, no matter the genre the person is into, if someone is truly a lover of music and especially the essence of modern music, we find ourselves here and what a place it is to be. Paradise.

Love and miss you forever. Lightnin Hopkins 💙

Mr Patrick Washington, thanks for sharing your wonderful memories with us all. What a beautiful heart-warming account of a natural born true blues man. I was actually there for just a moment...thank ya! Peace & Best wishes

The best Blues you’ll ever hear is right after a small town black church anywhere in the South gets through practicing for Sunday morning service.

ho yew indeed

Call the Hurst real BLUE ,🌹☮️

Iz a sin to be rich, a lowdown shame to be poor.

This artist sang the blues and live them

There is no better bluesman or example of blues... The blues is an expression of the pains of life a man feels... Its a defiant easement of the pain through musical and artistic expression... Its like a prayer... There is no best prayer award or best example of a prayer... Or best prayer in the top prayer charts.... The simplest prayer is as good as the one a pope or cardinal makes... Coz its real, and personal and a recognition of ones pain... Thats just my opinion though...

OK, HUGE Blues fan here. LOTS of people say 'this is the best this' and 'this is the best that'. I've got performances in my memories that are the best I've ever heard and I'd have a hard time being convinced otherwise. But this bumped one of my favorite Willy Dixon performances down to #11, and I absolutely LOVE Chicago Blues with the bass and horns. So props.

Miss you Blues man!!!

It's the scars of life

Loose a loved one ❤️

My Mary did the same dang thing, Lord Have Mercy !

If you have any questions 4 9

Had to redo atoms FIGHT AS A HUMAN

🤫👺🌚

Damn ! That is the nastiest lick ! Makes my hair stand up on the back of my neck every time I hear it.

I own large properties in this area of town 🥀

Great teeth! ❤

Just a man and his amplified guitar. Loving it!

Very good videography, as well as the blues from Lightnin'.

Just sittin here, shakin my head, listening - Man can play and make you feel it.

People asked him why he didn't do chord changes like usual blues chord changes. He said "Lightnin' change when he want to."

You are right it’s every day when you hear the great light Ning Luciano invernizzi ❤trombone players

What a master of the acoustic wow

Lightnin and TBone both studied under blind lemon, they both became the finest but in 2 opposite ways, it’s so incredible how adaptable the blues is

Shit made the 2nd wave of these edibles kick in. I thought he was gonna start singing hello central at first. That my fav lightnin' song.

Notice no finger prints on his glasses My Man ❤

longest socks I've ever seen

😄💬 In the seventies, I had to do a lot of hard work. When I heard about computers I swore "If they can't leave a pile of material at the end of the shift they will never be worth anything"❕ I've always had My foot in My mouth 🤠 Yup❗ G~G. 🎙🎶🎸🥁🎵👌

Delta blues is different from boogie blues

Yes living, traveling blues 💙 is a state of mind ❤

Bring me my Shitgun is another banger from him

This isn't only music , no, it's life translated into some spiritual shapes to make it liveable and to give dignity into it too!!🎸

“A good man feeling bad” I can relate

I can forgive the hyperbole of the video’s opening statements… I saw this doc decades ago and that song always stuck in my head. Nah, Lightnin’ wasn’t the best blues musician ever - not by a mile - but he does stand among the greats, and this performance is one of the best examples of what made him so great

A man at one with his heartfelt feelings and his instrument.

When I read the title of this video I said to myself: 'This guy just want to get one more viewer. Let's see. For sure I will stop watching it before it ends'. However I WAS KEPT watching and watching until the end and now I'm saying: ' He was not bluffing!'

More cowbell

I do believe this is a clip from the movie “Blues according to Lighnin’ Hopkins” nice clean copy do you have the rest of the movie it’s absolutely great?

Absolute best!

Man.

My favorite blues artist ❤

So effortless! It’s interesting that being a Texas guy, Hopkins was a master of that Mississippi Delta sound.

In Chicago.. i just saw Jazz last night.. this was better..
