Dave Edmunds must be a contender for the most underrated Rock musician of all time.
Dave Edmund's is such a talent
Overlooked NOT underrated, there is a difference
💯 agree.
@@bonkeydollocks1879 Yes. A better way of putting it.
People only say underrated when they have fuck all else to say...
Dave Edmunds is highly respected by everyone in the music industry - a legend amongst the pros
Well deserved, Seems a genuine guy
I Hear You Knocking is among my all-time favorite songs of the 70s.
What an absolute privilege it must have been for Chuck to play alongside Dave.
Without chuck berry there would be no Dave Edmunds.
@katherenewedic8076
Singling out Dave in that respect borders on the absurd.
Unless you’re prepared to start your list with The Beach Boys, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones - who were all following the trail Chuck blazed at least a decade earlier than Edmunds or Lowe.
Here in Sweden we saw him play with our local musicians and they were blown away when he didnt tell them the songs and what key he played in, but it turned out well! He played with a local Swedish band "Jerry Williams and the Violent" who played at the Star Club in Hamburg and knew the Beatles.
Edmunds has a great speaking voice.
Well he’s a Welshman!
@@josephinerimmer6888 That he is.
I have always loved Dave Edmunds. He is an extremely talented musical artist. I saw him perform live in L.A. many moons ago. Hot damn can he play guitar!!! Heard he has retired from touring and live shows. Hopefully he is still creating music. The music world would be very sad without Dave Edmunds. All the best to him!
Dave Edmunds is pure class....all the way from Love Sculpture's "Sabre Dance."One amazing guy.
"Farandole!" I learned that one note-for-note---probably took me a year. Absolutely fabulous. I think Dave may have sped the tape up a bit . . .
This guy has been flying the rocknroll flag for decades. respected by any rocker worth his salt
I've been a DE fan since I first heard his version of "I Hear You Knockin". An absolutely terrific guitarist and singer. At one point, I believed that ROCKPILE was the greatest rock n' roll band in the world. Yes...they were that good.
Saw Dave solo, just him and his guitar and voice. It was in Asbury Park around 2000. Incredibly good.
One of the true greatest Dave Edmunds hell of a guitarist
My first exposure to Dave Edmunds was Slipping Away on mtv about 1983...has no idea how much more music he had for me. Truly a favorite of mine. God bless, Dave!
Dave Edmunds is brilliant -- a dazzling musician-singer-producer who REALLY knows his stuff. His albums from his first on MAM (with "I Hear You Knockin'") to "Subtle As A Flying Mallet" (on RCA) and on and on are all masterworks. He appreciates Chuck Berry and other pioneers because of his livelong ,love and understanding of rock 'n' roll at its core.
Do you really think he's a dazzling musician and singer? I'll give you producer.
@@chipgaasche4933 Do you really think he isn't? I'll give you a slap!
@@CB-xr1eg I'll slap you back, clive..and you'll stay slapped. I like Edmunds but he wasn't a great singer OR guitarist.
@@chipgaasche4933 Easy there boy, it was just a joke. No need to come on like a keyboard hard man. Chill!
If you don't think DE is a great guitarist, listen to him play Sabre Dance Live in Seville.

I agree with you, Dave Edmunds should be in rock n roll Hall of Fame as well. So should Nick Lowe, both deserved more airtime on radio too!!!
Love, Dave Edmunds, Bought the album Get It on Lp many decades ago. Great stuff. Also had Rockpile -Seconds of Pleasure on cassette, Another great one.
I saw Dave at a gig in Hammersmith London years ago... He got to the end of his set, went off, came back for an encore and said "fuck it, let's play rock n roll" and did another hour... Another time I saw hih he said "I wanna bring a friend of mine on stage" and on walked Gary Moore.... What memories... And this guy can really rock
God bless you Dave and your family . Long live RocknRoll😊👍
I'd love to just stop by a pub and chat with Dave about all the people he played with and the funny gig stories he must have. ! ! Rockpile ! !
I guess that Dave knows every note and word in the Chuck Berry songbook. That's inborn for this fab rocker.
how entertaining Dave edmunds seems to be... great funny stories about chuck berry. I like it !
Great guy Dave, genuine. Sabre dance is superb. I spoke to Terry williams recently from Rockpile. Dave did a great job of the Carl Perkins and friends Tv special with Clapton , Roseanne Cash and George and Ringo playing with them.
Mr Dave Edmunds definitely deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame LEGENDS CANDIDATE FOR SURE.
I saw that 60th Birthday show at the Felt Forum...Dave on guitar, John Entwhistle on bass...one of the best shows I've ever seen btw...
IS It in YT?....
I was there too 😊
It´s wonderful when you can tell stories like this one. One night when I was interviewed I had my fun telling stories about a local music star here.
Great stories from a great rock n' roller!! Love it!!!! :)
👍👍👍
Dave Edmund's is absolutely one of my favorites.
The welsh wizard. God bless you Dave
Dave, you're still a cutie after all these years. ♥
😁
He definitely is a cutie!
Thanks for posting this, good to see Dave Edmunds after all this time. These days I keep going back to Rockpile / Nick Lowe, it seems like classic rock, timeless.
Wonderful interview, just love Dave Edmunds.
I absolutely adore this men
Love dave, his songs, very underrated guy.
This man is the King of Love. Love his shirt. Dear Chuck. You never can tell.
Class. What a player! Any color can play the blues if you can play! Great stories.
He is great on stage. Love his version of Bruce Springsteen's From Small Things. I never really heard him talk before, funny guy and a good story teller.
John Entwistle backing up Chuck Berry!
The box set of DVDs for "Hail Hail Rock and Roll" has all you'll ever want to know about the twisted psyche of Chuck Berry.
Praise from Chuck is high praise indeed.
I was at that show and it was great
He told John Entwistle "Don't do that!" Holy Crap!
When he said he got Entwistle to play bass, I was like "Oh no, Chuck's not going for that." lol. Not a good pairing stylistically.
Someone should have told Entwhistle that long ago.
and he punched Keef Richards in the face..
Chuck Berry did, just to be clear.
I got to see Rockpile in Cleveland at the Agora. One of my all time favorite shows was seeing Dave Edmunds' band when he toured for DE7 in the early 80's. He had Geraint Watkins on piano and man, that band was on fire!
I love Dave Edmunds.
He rocks......INFORMATION is one of my favs
I was at the Madison Square Gardens show he's talking about 😊
Fave music dude EVER yes awesome same age as s.e.london hub! welsh wizard. wish he wold do something at least in London for telly. Chuck does this with all bands he shows up and whatever band there would just follow. rock on dave i know you are still at the center of my life Rock and Roll!!!!!!!
Fantastic Dave.....WELL DONE :))
Chuck Berry life is rock and roll.
Quelle voix chaude 🥰
I was at that New.York show for my 22nd birthday .
love this
👍
Dave Edmunds once had a website, which is down now because it got hacked. But when it still existed I read many stories like this one here. What a loss!
Aww... poor John... his ‘busy’ bass playing was pure musical genius to be enjoyed... not shut down!
I totally enjoyed Mr Edmund's !
Happy birthday Dave! A true rock n' roll hero if ever there was one.
No i think he sucks
Glad that ace guitar picker Dave Edmunds got the Chuck Berry seal of appeal. He earned it.
I love Dave Edmunds! He's still cute. ❤👧
Very nice!
Edmunds....legend
I think I must have nearly every Dave Edmunds track - lost my vinyl years ago though 😭😭
You kids should read the new bio of Nick Lowe by Will Birch, which talks a lot about Dave, naturally. A really good read.
Thanks for that suggestion. Looking forward to reading that book.
Saw Dave at the Ripley's on South Street in Philly. Chuck Berry also played there, but when they asked him who was in his backup band was going to be Chuck said, "Just me". They pointed out that contract stated a band would back him so the staff contacted George Thorogood's Destroyers and had them back Chuck.
My lord, I’d give almost anything to see that show.
@@MrJett1971 I don't know how great it would have been since Chuck never rehearsed his back up bands after he got out of prison. They were lucky if he even told them what key the next song was going to be. There is a good clip from the early 60s in Europe. He's backed up by a jazz group and they seem to be able to keep pace. Also dig him and the Count Basie band in the film Jazz On A Summer Day.
Awesome
Hail, Hail, Rock N' Roll!
I played with Chuck and he would call out a key change -- change the key mid song so you had to be on your toes.
Dave Edmunds is a brilliant guitarist, highly underrated. I'm glad he's dropped the teddy boy image, it didn't really suit him.
My band backed up Chuck at Elon College in North Carolina in 1974
Do tell.. would love to hear the whole story 😊
Ohhh, but to have played with Terry!
Hi Dave, do you remember me,I was that guy over there who was drinking a hot chocolate
I wonder if there’s any footage of that Madison Square gig with Entwistle?
Micky told me a similar story when Memphis Bend backed Chuck. #MickyGeeGuitarist
Subtle as a Flying Mallet
❤
ok, now that's funny. He's so cool.
Wow..Dave looks different!
He's Welsh.
Now now, there`s no need for that. ;-)
What I would have paid to be at either event!
Thats true chuck never had a,band he would play with the local band in the city and town that he would prefrom at
οι της μουσικης,δεν ειναι για να μιλουν,αλλά για να παιζουν μουσικη.
Chuck said the best band to ever back him was Booker T and the MG's, and that he loved Steve Cropper. I once met Cropper and told him that. Steve was deeply flattered.
And I could see why Chuck would say that to Entwistle. John was a show-off. I always got a sense he was insecure and jealous guitarists always got the attention.
he looks like a teddy boy still.
but yet he comes across as an educated welshman, slightly anglicized.
he seems to have that lower class look about him a bit.
⭐
Wait he is English!?!?!?
Dave is just amazing nothing more I can say...Ox did that on purpose to Chuck lol
That was quite the lineup for a backing band, as good as when the Steve Miller Band backed Berry for a couple of years. Edmunds probably should have told Berry their credentials.
Apropos of nothing, but IMO, when you have the "credentials", no need to tell anyone.
If they're "smart / saavy" enough.........they'll figure it out.
My guess is CB "figured it out", that's why DE was playing all the solos.
All the beer and cigs over his whole life--- I thought he'd be dead Long ago
The moderator needs another line of work.
Bruno TaTa Indeed. He had nothing at all to offer, except nodding.
He let his guest do the talking, just as it should be.
No Bob the interviewer should encourage not act dumb like he didn't even know who Dave was.
And wouldn't play at any concert unles he was paid first!
Gee I did not know he was English
Welsh.
He isn't English, he's Welsh!
Wish I had been at the NY show. The times I saw Chuck Berry play he was the worst at playing Chuck Berry leads!
Cave is a great blues/rhythm & blues artist. Just listen to 3 O'clock Blues & So Unkind. Of course, Dave's best guitar playing is The Sabre Dance (one guitar, one track at normal speed)
John Lennon said Dave's "I Hear You Knocking Is" the best guitar playing he has ever heard.
love this
👍
