I come from the middle east. I never understood why I liked the blues. growing up in Syria I was the only person in the neighbourhood who listened to this kind of music, I always wondered why I listened to all these legends like BB King, Berry, Johnson and the man himself.. Hopkins.
when I grew up life got hard and I had to suffer through the war and through some realtionships with women. the funny thing is that I didn't understand the texts as a child. And now as an adult I had the blessing to learn the language better and understand what these legends are singing about, until I found out that they were singing about hard times that I went through, but don't forget the good times too.
And now as a grown man, I finally realised that I was't different from other people beacuse I listened to the Blues and they didn't, I was just simlpy blessed to be able to feel the Blues. Long Live the Blues

you describe your insights so well!

Thank you for your insight I love the blues as it takes me away from all that is on my mind 🥰
Good for you brother
Once you get hooked on lightnin,there is no one else to listen to or try to play
he is cooler than the other side of the pillow
I am not moved by music… or much of anything these days. I’ve had a pretty traumatic couple of years. I closed my eyes and listened to this in the dark and just cried quietly. This was the most incredible music I think I’ve ever heard.
Here's to good music and better years. Cheers.
Yep. They talk about the cathartic nature of the blues and Lightnin' Hopkins' music has got to be some of the most cathartic. The soul of a man.
Blessings and better days to you, James.
If it weren't for a photographer selling photos at a jazz festival in my home town, I'd have never known Robert Johnson. He traveled around and photographed blues musicians. I was looking for something to do, I crossed paths with his booth. I found photos of a headstone that read Robert Johnson. He told me the legend, I went home and learned how to play the blues. That was four years just short of twenty years ago. Now, this is where I go for peace of mind
Wow beautiful
it's fantastic music and it can absolutly be therapeutic. pick up a guitar and play three chords, the world is yours.
After hearing news of the conflict in the Middle East during 30 minutes, my mind is about to explode. But Sam Hopkins always heal my soul
I am so thankful that this is 37 minutes long. I wish it would last forever. Lightnin' Hopkins lives on forever!! Never forget this Blues Legend
Dude didn't even need a band, that's how good he was.
A true Legend
one man & a set of strings & a whole lot of people who can relate or not ..the pot on the stove is boiling & so is my forehead out here in this sun ..so pass me some ice water ..please
One man, one guitar/harmonica pouring out his heart and soul, the true definition of the blues.😉
Not playing for money, recognition...if he was never recorded Lightnin would have played his music the same...he had to
Pulling emotions out of thin air is a blessing not a skill
What a soul/blues voice !... This man IS the blues... He could draw tears from an iceberg
It's funny how 90 percent of the time is always a woman giving a man the blue's. This is incredible music. 😊
Well sugar nuggets; what else could lift a Man so high and shoot him so low?
Two men changed my life; Sonny Boy Williamson and Lightnin Hopkins and Lord Be Praised. I Got To See Both. Way back in the early sixites, way back in the innocent days of the 1960's when they toured England!
You are One LUCKY MAN.BOUT 6Yrs.before my time.He may Be FAVORITE of the SO called Old BLUESMEN.THEY WERE AND SOME STIL ARE,UP AMD COMING ALSO.THIS IS VERY HARD TO EVEN EQUAL.GREST COMMENT. Walter B.Memphis. 🎼🎸🎙💜💯
Leroy I saw him in Austin then the army transferred me to Paris where I met an English girl and then we spent time in London in the '60s.
Kisd your soul
Daaaaayyyyum!
Props to you 🎸
Right here right now visiting "Lightnin" at Lawndale Cemetery in Houston TX. Playin this here album. Very calming n soothing... R.i.P...
I saw his statue in Crockett . it's on camp st . across from an old venue he used to play at . don't know what it was called in his day . when I was there it was called the camp st cafe . don't know what it is now .
Thankyou for this 💓💖
@@sandrambergson welcomed . Texan?
Awesome comment listening to this album in Turkey right now
and the blues go on and on and.......
none better than Lightning
He cared enough to be truthful,even to himself.He didn't deny pain,he lived in spite of it.🤔
Thank you.
53 yr. old white guy sitting here surfing TH-cam - and found this. Never heard of him before but, Lightning is awesome! Can't help but thinking this kind of music was the influence that gave us Led Zeppelin's first album.
wow! well...welcome to the real ISH!!!!!!! I love me Lightnin even more than Plant....ever....now ya can REALLY dig in man!!!!!!
Every great old Rock act praises Blues players that most have never heard of.
And it was Zeppelins first album that caused us to seek out where it came from.
Zepp debut album is also still so friggin good
Zeppelin ripped off lots, got sued back in the 90s (iirc) for a measly 2 mil. They didn't credit the original musicians. Still, Zeppelin put their mark on those songs & really made it their own, imo.
I look forward to retirement in my farm in Venezuela, with some cows and a nice dog, this music in that jungle will make me just happy in my hamac.. all of you are invited!
The world is full of truley amazing people and Ol'Lightnin' is one of them.
Just outstanding.
un régal pour les oreilles
Absolute business 🙌
Hopkins once told srv,why u use thick strings, :Don't work so hard SON!!!!!fuckin great
So ur into blues,I been writing an playing for few years
An brazilian here, appreciating this man.
as ordems :-)
same ol' lightnin'
every time... yep .
I have been listening to the blues since the early 50s and till this day no matter how much great music I hear I always end up back listening to my down home blues it has been my heart and soul and my first love.
A true blues mo -fo
He's an American treasure. He makes the complex sound so easy and smooth. Multi-facet genius. God bless Lightnin',
Take a learning this man is the real deal ask any major dude who can trueley play the blues this man was the flame no joke
Yes. They have a statue of Stevie Ray Vaughan in Texas. Where is the statue to Lightnin' Hopkins ? Texas is full of shit.
Alive today as iw was yesterday, lived its devil backwards, we are still here
@@johnsennett1690 Pppp
Might I expand on that, he’s this world’s treasure. But definitely America’s too. Peace
I'll be jamming along 🎸
My heart is broken, I got the bluest of the blues 😢
as a moroccan , i loved american jazz so much , but this album did really touch my heart .
هدا البلوز ديال المسيسيبي من الافضل ان تستمع للبلوز بالليل .كيجي راءع جدا ..ما تنس جون لي هوكر ومادي واثرز ..والبلوز ديال شيكاكو حتى هو مخيبر ....
Glad you enjoy it!
Nobody does it like this dude in my opinion
So simple, so pure. No one else ever sounded like Lightnin'.
so true brother.....
Fr
This gentle man plays the blues because he has lived the blues what a real person this guy must have been
Best believe it
Lightnin' would hate all the goddamn ads.
Nobody. I mean nobody is cooler than ole lightnin he was born with the laidbackness gene
One word : MOJO
The man....
The legend......
Lightning Hopkins
Resonator for all hard time. Inspiration for all speed of boogie. Master of electro acoustic. And this cool Voice...
I can see why Lightnin' Hopkins was one of Jimi Hendrix favorites.
Authentic, raw, rough around the edges, pure crossroads & dust.
Glad to be here with you people
The influence that this album had on Jimi Page for Led Zep I is incredible: You can hear You shook me lick in the first song, and and inspiration just after for whole lotta love.
Hopkins is Incredible
Wow...love this guy...never heard of him before,but now my new favorite..!! I'm thinking Van Halen took alot of Hopkins sound...Van Halen's ice cream man sounds way to much like the second track watch my fingers..???
24:16 but I'm so glad.. I'm so glad.. I'm so glad! It ain't slavery time no more! ~ RIP Mr. Samuel John "Lightnin" Hopkins ~ 3/15/1912 - 1/30/1982
Pure Blues...
Love from Romania❤
There's a bar in Exargia, Athens, Greece with a beautiful graffiti of this lp cover on the big door, outside. Now knowing the record I understand why many people has it as iconic and masterpiece. The sound is pristine, pure and direct... there's space , not too old and rusty like many other bluesman. Great discovering for me, it will be a good company for the future,
Hope I can met this place
@Xenos true, in Spanish Exargia is Exarchia like Athína is Atenas. I think, I saw it written. Have you been in the bar?
I've listened to every blues player that you can think of, and this man in my opinion, is the greatest of them all. Don't get me wrong, there were a lot of extremely talented blues players that influenced modern music, but lightning is the goat. Charlie Patton, Robert Johnson, Blind Lemon, Guitars Slim, BB King, exc, they all were greats that influenced the modern blues, jazz, rock and roll, r&b, and even hip-hop. I listen to all of them with a loving appreciation.
Iam sorry idont be have to south stand and desain nd goodbye
Low down blues gets in your soul
This is one of the greatest one man band performers u will ever hear when it comes to the blues Mr Lightin Hopkins . Now my pops was a blues gtr player & a blues singer and this was one of his heroes they called him Lighting Hopkins because when he strikes his guitar it sounds just like the thunder and lightning in the sky , this man was most definitely a GENIUS , Every Blues gtr player today owe a bit gratitude to this trailblazer RIP (ANCESTOR) GREAT LEGEND Mr Lightin Hopkins !!
Never been copied to this day
I'd probably say the best to be honest. I love em all, but something about Lightnin, you feel it deep in your bones.

Idk how I discovered this but it’s sick as fuck

Just discovering that all the country rock and metal that is any good is based off blues?
@@dontneedtoknow5836 Townes Van Zandt
cites him as an influence thats how i got here
@@Hoitusmaximus24 I came for the history lesson.
Amen.
He is still the best in my opinion because of how simple he made his music.
Honoured to have listened to this magic here. So glad I switched to blues music for fitness.
If you don't feel this on some level, we can't be friends! 💯🔥
