- The official trailer for Downchild's documentary "Flip, Flop and Fly, 40 Years of the Downchild Blues Band."
The Downchild Blues Band was formed in Toronto in 1969 and continues to perform today. It was co-founded by two brothers, Donnie "Mr. Downchild" Walsh and Richard "Hock"Walsh. The band's international fame is partially due to three of its songs, the originals "I've Got Everything I Need (Almost)" and "Shot Gun Blues", and its adaptation of "Flip, Flop and Fly", all from its 1973 album, Straight Up, being featured on the first Blues Brothers album, Briefcase Full of Blues (1978). "Flip, Flop and Fly" is Downchild's only hit single, and became the signature song of the band. Their musical style is described as being "a spirited, if fundamental, brand of jump-band and Chicago-style blues."
Happy 50th Anniversary...............Been a great ride............

As of August 2023 this Prime video is NOT VIEWABLE IN CANADA! w.t.f..... Is it that old that its been pulled? Appears to be no way to watch this in Canada as there appears no DVD available either.
Do you have any video footage with John Witmer on vocals ( 82-86)
When was he a vocalist with the band? I know him from a record I have when he was with Whisky Howl. ...
