Being a Louisiana girl I was raised on Blues you can use baby!! Every Saturday morning mama would get up early in the morning open the curtains and clean the house to some blues.. the old juke joints and small cafes.. nothing but the best blues!! Love me some BB KING AND JOHNNY TAYLOR!
I love your dad, I saw this song live in the rain in Tampa, Florida at Bluesfest and he said, "if y'all are willing to cpme out here in ther rain, I'm certainly willing to play for y'all," and then he shredded for like an hour through the storm.
This almost brought tears to my eyes. My Dad passed in 1994, and he played bass guitar. I IMMEDIATELY heard that deep bass in the song. I guess my ears are trained to hear it. ❤❤
🥹man, hearing this takes me back to my grandma’s house as a kid and later, hanging with my mom, aunts and uncles at house parties. Timeless music for timeless memories.🤎🖤
BB is truly the King, my dad introduced me to him in my teens and it's something I've highly respected, we would not have the rap today if we didn't have BB King, muddy waters, Otis Redding, R L Grimes, it goes on and on.
B.B. King appeared on a hip hop song called Prayin Man by Big K.R.I.T. , from the perspective of a runaway slave and a couple others I think you and your dad would love it He plays guitar and sings on it
I discovered the Blues around 15 years old and have been hooked ever since (17 years on!). BB King’s voice, rapport with the crowd and his band and perfect, soulful guitar playing had me hook, line and sinker! Should introduce your lad to BB’s Cook County Jail show, particularly “How Blue Can You Get” ❤️
This is directed at dad. Since you like B.B., you might know this album, but in case it escaped your radar, listen to "B.B. King Sings Spirituals". Not as a reaction, just for your own soul =). I love the blues, yet this gospel album is my favorite B.B. King album. For a reaction video, B.B. King feat. Heavy D. - Keep it coming, a blues-rap collaboration, could be interesting.
I've listened to this song before, but it was a more recent live performance by B.B. King, Eric Clapton and a few other guitarists. Each of them does a guitar solo on this tune. They absolutely kill it.
Saw BB three times live. Wow, what an artist. Great showman on top of it all. Really knew his trade. Took on responsibility for the concert, worked the crowd, worked his own band until the whole place was buzzing. Can't find it on TH-cam but he finished BB King at the Forum with The Thrill is gone (finished all his concerts with it) and it is the best. His facial expressions reflect his guitar playing *what his guitar is saying)
Just wanted to leave a commenta nd thank you guys for doing stuff like this. I know that Drake and classic 90's hip hop and R&B get all the clicks (in many cases, deservedly), but there's so much amazing music to explore and listen and react to. B.B. King is a musical legend, and I'm glad someone's out there reminding us of how amazing he was.
This was one of my great grandfathers favorite artists. I’m 40 years old and have been listening to BB King and Bobby Blue Bland since I was born 😂😂😂. Thank you so much RIP Pop Pop JB ❤
Black artists were the creators of rock music. Ike Turner is credited with having the first rock record. Chuck Berry and Little Richard were early innovators. Big Mama Thornton was a rocker and the first one to sing Hound Dog, which Elvis Presley covered and had a hit with.
You two should definitely do the the more recent (relatively) version of this at The Montreux Jazz Festival. Absolute work of art made with so many years of experience in life and his craft. Highly recommend.
I am so glad this entire situation happened! I am a hip hop head but the blues is my favorite genre. I fell in love with the blues because of B.B.King. I was lucky enough to meet him fresh out of basic training. I never looked back in music.
The first blues artist CD I ever owned. Was one of those cheapy The Blues collection cds you get in book shops. Absolute classics on it and it was the start to my love of the blues!! Brings me so much joy and people don't understand this statement
Come through dad with the blues history. Y’all would enjoy some music tours in Memphis so rich in history and culture. The blues paints such an accurate picture of the history and reality of America 🖤
MC Hammer’s sample of this song in It’s Gone was my first introduction to BB King. Great song here, and definitely check out MC Hammer if you haven’t already.
Simply awesome - and I still remember seeing him live @Nuremburg. And without doubt one of the best concerts I have ever been to although it was not spectacular or technically overloaded with stage design and all that, but nevertheless impressing: just a tremendous band, wonderful music, Lucille and him. A perfect evening! Thank you for the backflash and greetings from Germany
Luther Vandross, Al Jareau, Stevie Ray Vaughan…….. would love to see y’all do them! My dad was a musician and I grew up listening to EVERYTHING from rap, country, rock, jazz, blues, pop, heavy metal………music is my love language ❤️
Bit of a late comment but im british and i think i can explain why Blues was such a hit over here. It was post ww2 and a lot of kids that were growing up in the 50's and 60's often found it really hard to find work or oppertunities a lot of people probably dont know that the British were still doing rationing up till 1954 while the country was being rebuilt. Back then hearing a electric guitar or someone like elvis, buddy holly, the beatles and so on was a huge event.The records at the time were also expensive and some difficult to get hold of especially if you were a teenager or kid so a lot of them bought older albums which were cheaper and not as popular and they happened to be blues and jazz albums which had guitar on them and also songs had a message of being poor, beaten down and lonely which the lower and middle class kids of Britain at the time related to deeply. So it planted the seed for which Peter Green, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and others to get a guitar and play that music and they turned the blues into their own interpretation.
You can really see how blues is the progenitor of all other American music. For example, the way he finds pockets in the rhythm for his guitar solos is EXACTLY how we as emcees find pockets in the beats to place our syllables. It's the foundation of "flow." (Rakim, who basically invented flow by freeing the sentences he was writing from the confines of the measures, was a saxophonist before he became an emcee and explicitly said that he took a saxophonist's approach to finding the same pocket with his vocals... ALL OF US who rap nowadays are his disciples, whether we realize it or not)
Turns that being older than Kai and younger than Dad, I share both of their tastes in music. I'm really into B.B. King, Pink Floyd, Eric Clapton, Bob Marley, The Beatles, Janis, The Band, Buddy Guy since this is what my family had me listening to as a kid, this were the records and cassettes I had access to as kid. But also I grew up listening to 90s and 2000s hip hop, sitting in front of the stereo with my own cassettes in hand to record my mixtapes.
By the way, i really recommend a musical documentary named festival express, where they fill a train with musicians and go east to west up in canada doing shows in every other city. It's very interesting.
Really wish my father and I were comfortable enough with each other to be able to enjoy music and experience different genres together. One day you'll cherish these moments.
BLUES transport you back to the place where the pain started and ended at the same time. You FEEL and EXPERIENCE Lucille talking to you and dare NOT respond back. Just enjoy the RIDE 🎸
He's so smooth...check the version in 2010 Chicago Crossroads festival. I also recommend "The sky is crying "..Gary B.B. Coleman "I'll play the blues for you ".. Albert King, or the cover by Daniel Castro "If trouble was money"....Albert Collins
I had never heard this song before but thoroughly enjoyed it. On top of the guitars I also enjoyed the horns. The whining of them also contained some anthropromorphic qualities similar to how his guitar was singing. Great review 👏
this performance is amaaaazing. great reaction. so interesting to see you guys enlighten eachother to these gems of your respective zeitgeists. your openness to- and respect for eachother is truly inspiring and wholesome to see. it also helps that both of you seem to have great taste in music.
right, round 15 minutes ago i had no knowledge about this channal whatsoever!!! But where to start..... BRAVO!!!!! Absolutely BRAVO!!!!! Am almost out of words....!!! this, almost majoristic, major uncommon, and super, super rare, in terms of the average fatherhood, vs hiphop rap,, and specifically because you are a white man!!!!! 1. this fathers willingness to really give hiphop and rap a valid and conscious change(think in specific with the 'rap-genre',, ist damn hard for surdent 'before hiphop golden age",, people, just to listen to one rap track, without being fulfilled with prejudice, and asap shut down as soon rap begins) quote: """"this not music,, its verbally violance, they just talking""" 2. fathers conscious ability and GREAT skills,, to acknowledge, consume, and even analyze on both lyricism and the music,,,That's so so amazing skillfull!!! You are for real better at catching themes, and metaphors,, than most young people are,, which claim to be hiphop listeners! you withhold an almost genius skill, in almost every single track you hear(and even first time listen), to almost, in every track(have only seen 3 vids of the two of you blessed people) pin point the overall theme, for the specific raps, pin pointing in every song, those specific instruments in which is not the "lead music/beat", but that "downtoned, background silently ex piano", which is so undertoned but still has the same layer of validity, of the song as a whole, as the beat and rap layers got ,, THATS FREAKING AMAZING!!!! 9/10!! 3. Think i saw your first pac listening (dear mom),, and you iimmediately, after saying, something about you have heard the name, pac before, and i think you somehow gestured that he's rapgame badass number one!! and then after one verse, besides, shed a little "mom tear",, was able to regonize, that the portrayed gangster rapper, in which he is in public eye's, is far from the truth. I know for a fact that pac was intelligent, and for you to regonize that fact right away comfirm one thing about you....quote:-"it takes one, to know one" 4. Albumwise,,, after one listen you can point out which track is the deepest, most influencing and also the most popular (("""radiohit"",, mainstream))... U gave me a chock when you said out of the blue while listening to "protected ya neck" with wu from '36 champers',,,, -"That's "RZA" rappin, right??" -think you mentioned it, due to the validity you heard in his voice or something alike!!! ODB, method man,,, those two really stands out flow wise,, in the wu, but RZA wow, am super impressed!!! and I'll end this comment by mentioning one coresign of high intelligent:: """and a synonym of you""",,,, >>>>>>CURIOSITY !!!!!! am so amazed that i discovered this channel,,, this is so so high level educational,, in relation to different generations,, which you two provide through music, but if one is able to optain all your "messages",, both spoken and unspoken,, that one person has discovered one of the greatest possibilities to be educated,, in forms no other education tuch at all!!!! and here dis vid, i can see, you do it vice vera, which only bring one "phd" over the "bachalor"....I see great potential in your channel,, and I do dare to claim,, if you are not gonna get highly known, for this specific content,,, is due to the avarage human being rather low iq!!!! Big props and major respect,, to the both of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hadn't seen this B.B. King performance. I saw him live twice, the second time Etta James and Buddy Guy were there too. I know you have a long queue but I suggest you check out Sister Rosetta Tharpe if you haven't already. She was playing the electric guitar in the 40s and her playing style influenced many including Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis' piano style.
Beautiful! 😙 Sorry I've been awol, SO busy! but I have been watching random selected vids that you put out when I can get spare 10, they calm me down and sooth my soul!. Love to you both as always and of course the FrontRoom ladies. Ayeisha and mum X
Love BB King even when he played from a chair he still had an awesome show. Glad my mom dragged me to the show. Something I really appreciated later in life. Thanks for the video!
BB King came to my Gma house and they were drinking what they called "Knotty Head"(white gin). My mom(a child at the time) asked my Gma why its called knotty head, Mr.King said cause if drink too much someone going to have a knot on their head! That story took place in a lil town called Midway GA! S.I.P Gma & Momma Peaches
Live me some Blues Bobby Blue bland ❤ Yall should listen to him My favorite tracks Little boy blue & I pitty the fool And also the Miracles/Smokey Robinson All albums but Smokey is a poet that wrote most of the songs for all of Motown
Love the dynamic and diversity in musical taste you guys have. I hate to be the guy in the comments routinely making recommendations, but at some point you guys should absolutely listen to Big K.R.I.T 'Praying Man' (feat B.B King... and actually him, not just a sample). I'm assuming Kai hasn't heard it based off him not hearing B.B King's voice, and I'm 110% certain both of you will appreciate the substance of the lyrics/story. Much love and appreciation!
Thank you for educating me on the blues. I love R&B and hip-hop, but never dove into the blues as it was before my time. BB was a master with the guitar. It sounded like you both loved the heavy bass lines. Bay Area rap has a lot of blues/funk influence and has really heavy bass lines. Check out Too $hort the Ghetto to see what I am talking about.
Maybe nobody will read my comment, but ... I am working in the music bizz like 30+ years. I met B.B. King in 2006 and attended a concert in Germany ... I've attended 10`000+ concerts, but if you would ask me about my favourite concert I've attended: It was B.B. King! ♥ Give "Blue Boys Tune" a listen ... epic!
Someone should make and maintain a Spotify playlist of all the songs that are covered on this channel.
Why shouldn't you be that someone
If I'm really bored someday, I might do that
Why not?
Etta James Live - I rather go blind is one of the BEST female performances EVER.
Most charming father son duo. Who doesn’t want to be this tight with their parent?
Amazing!!!!!!!!!! Inseparable!!!!
Great duo. They manage to find a middle ground each time both very humble and so inquisitive. Great bond.
Being a Louisiana girl I was raised on Blues you can use baby!! Every Saturday morning mama would get up early in the morning open the curtains and clean the house to some blues.. the old juke joints and small cafes.. nothing but the best blues!! Love me some BB KING AND JOHNNY TAYLOR!
I'm just 21 years old but I love blues and this song is actually one of my favourite blues songs ever. So amazing.
The Frontroom playlist 🔥
This is nice to hear I’m 29 and I never bump into people I’m their 20s that enjoy blues
TYPE IN "BB KING THRILL IS GONE CROSS ROADS" GREAT LIVE VERSION WITH MANY OTHER ARTIST PLAYING INSTRUMENTS
B.B. has been through some problems, it's lucky for Us!
I love your dad, I saw this song live in the rain in Tampa, Florida at Bluesfest and he said, "if y'all are willing to cpme out here in ther rain, I'm certainly willing to play for y'all," and then he shredded for like an hour through the storm.
One of my favourite things about BB was his improvisation. What an entertainer he was
This almost brought tears to my eyes. My Dad passed in 1994, and he played bass guitar. I IMMEDIATELY heard that deep bass in the song. I guess my ears are trained to hear it. ❤❤
Rock&Roll comes from the blues baby!
Every now and then, I go down the blues rabbit hole on TH-cam and just spend hours watching Stevie Ray and BB King perform. Love it
I do it every other week, but i listen to SRV every other day or more❤
🥹man, hearing this takes me back to my grandma’s house as a kid and later, hanging with my mom, aunts and uncles at house parties. Timeless music for timeless memories.🤎🖤
One of his best songs, BB is an excellent performer. Can't help but get sucked right into his vibe!
BB is truly the King, my dad introduced me to him in my teens and it's something I've highly respected, we would not have the rap today if we didn't have BB King, muddy waters, Otis Redding, R L Grimes, it goes on and on.
This was one of my grandmother's favorite songs. So many memories brought back!
B.B. King appeared on a hip hop song called Prayin Man by Big K.R.I.T. , from the perspective of a runaway slave and a couple others
I think you and your dad would love it
He plays guitar and sings on it
I discovered the Blues around 15 years old and have been hooked ever since (17 years on!). BB King’s voice, rapport with the crowd and his band and perfect, soulful guitar playing had me hook, line and sinker!
Should introduce your lad to BB’s Cook County Jail show, particularly “How Blue Can You Get” ❤️
Love it! B.B. was incredible and even better live. George Benson would also be great to introduce him to, as well as the O’Jays For the Love of money.
Now that. Is a smoooooth smooothh track! Instant Silence 😅
Man that drummer is COLD. FLAWLESS adjustment to the pace change. His whole band was cold!
This is directed at dad. Since you like B.B., you might know this album, but in case it escaped your radar, listen to "B.B. King Sings Spirituals". Not as a reaction, just for your own soul =). I love the blues, yet this gospel album is my favorite B.B. King album.
For a reaction video, B.B. King feat. Heavy D. - Keep it coming, a blues-rap collaboration, could be interesting.
I've listened to this song before, but it was a more recent live performance by B.B. King, Eric Clapton and a few other guitarists. Each of them does a guitar solo on this tune. They absolutely kill it.
Classic. That is a perfect example of the greatness of TH-cam. Along with this channel of course
I LOVE the Blues!!!🩷 And this song in particular! So glad you introduced this dad 😁!
My favorite song by B.B. King!
This song is played in every black oldhead bar listen to the regular version the bassline is soooo heavy
I saw him in his 70s in SLC, UT. He was still making Lucille talk. My dad loved him♥️♥️
B.B. King is a Legend with his guitar named Lucille❤
Can't believe you are finally doing blues!! loved it.
Saw BB three times live. Wow, what an artist. Great showman on top of it all. Really knew his trade. Took on responsibility for the concert, worked the crowd, worked his own band until the whole place was buzzing. Can't find it on TH-cam but he finished BB King at the Forum with The Thrill is gone (finished all his concerts with it) and it is the best. His facial expressions reflect his guitar playing *what his guitar is saying)
One of my music-related major regrets in never seeing BB live. Thanks for watching. - Kai’s dad
This song has been on playlist forever, a top 5 blues songs of all time easy
B.B. King one of the goats 🐐 great artist 🙌❤
saw him in exeter uk 1986 .. legend++
Just wanted to leave a commenta nd thank you guys for doing stuff like this. I know that Drake and classic 90's hip hop and R&B get all the clicks (in many cases, deservedly), but there's so much amazing music to explore and listen and react to. B.B.

One of my Dad’s favorites…Still has the LPs ❤🇿🇼
Once in a lifetime type of musician
This was one of my great grandfathers favorite artists. I’m 40 years old and have been listening to BB King and Bobby Blue Bland since I was born 😂😂😂. Thank you so much RIP Pop Pop JB ❤
Song My Daddy Played For Me When I Was A Kid and I Fell In Love With Blues ❤and Is My Top Favorite.
70 years on stage..a legend!!!
BB King is a legend!! Love this and thanks for reacting to this song and this music!! ❤❤
Black artists were the creators of rock music. Ike Turner is credited with having the first rock record. Chuck Berry and Little Richard were early innovators. Big Mama Thornton was a rocker and the first one to sing Hound Dog, which Elvis Presley covered and had a hit with.
Heard you guys on CBC radio on the weekend! That's awesome!
You two should definitely do the the more recent (relatively) version of this at The Montreux Jazz Festival. Absolute work of art made with so many years of experience in life and his craft. Highly recommend.

One of the greatest of an all!
Anytime you're love sick, put on a BB record!
Come through dad with the blues history. Y’all would enjoy some music tours in Memphis so rich in history and culture. The blues paints such an accurate picture of the history and reality of America 🖤
Im 29 and I fell in love with the Blues when I was 17. That genre is so legendary

A perfect evening! Thank you for the backflash and greetings from Germany
Great of Dad for breaking down the racial aspect of music in America back in those days for Kai to understand.
The truth will set you free!
Luther Vandross, Al Jareau, Stevie Ray Vaughan…….. would love to see y’all do them! My dad was a musician and I grew up listening to EVERYTHING from rap, country, rock, jazz, blues, pop, heavy metal………music is my love language ❤️
My Grandpa loved BB King, so I loved him too. Crazy thing is my Grandpa looked like BB too.
SANG B.B King. Rest In Paradise
Bit of a late comment but im british and i think i can explain why Blues was such a hit over here. It was post ww2 and a lot of kids that were growing up in the 50's and 60's often found it really hard to find work or oppertunities a lot of people probably dont know that the British were still doing rationing up till 1954 while the country was being rebuilt.

2pac i ain't mad at cha
i always look forward to watching the frontroom after work keep it up gentlemen
BLUES transport you back to the place where the pain started and ended at the same time.
You FEEL and EXPERIENCE Lucille talking to you and dare NOT respond back.
Just enjoy the RIDE 🎸
You can hear the blues influence in the British rock bands of the 60s and 70s, as well as bands like Led Zeppelin.
Great choice, dad!
I love this song
I just love you both and the way you honor an appreciate our culture. Thank you
THANK YOU DAD FOR INTRODUCING ME AS WELL TO THIS!!!
My pleasure, thank for watching!
Thanks for sharing this ‘Dad’ 🙏🏻👍🏻
He's so smooth...check the version in 2010 Chicago Crossroads festival.
I also recommend
"The sky is crying "..Gary B.B. Coleman
"I'll play the blues for you ".. Albert King, or the cover by Daniel Castro
"If trouble was money"....Albert Collins
This is amazing! 😮Thanks dad! ❤
I had never heard this song before but thoroughly enjoyed it. On top of the guitars I also enjoyed the horns. The whining of them also contained some anthropromorphic qualities similar to how his guitar was singing. Great review 👏
Thank u Kai Father and history was insightful
What an amazing song! 🤩
You gotta show him How Blue can you get? with the crowd reaction
Lol. "If you don't like the blues, I'm kicking you out the house. "😂 nice one sir. Good song..Good video. Keep up the good work, guys
this performance is amaaaazing. great reaction. so interesting to see you guys enlighten eachother to these gems of your respective zeitgeists. your openness to- and respect for eachother is truly inspiring and wholesome to see. it also helps that both of you seem to have great taste in music.
right, round 15 minutes ago i had no knowledge about this channal whatsoever!!!
But where to start.....
BRAVO!!!!!
Absolutely BRAVO!!!!!
Am almost out of words....!!!
this, almost majoristic, major uncommon, and super, super rare, in terms of the average fatherhood, vs hiphop rap,, and specifically because you are a white man!!!!!
1. this fathers willingness to really give hiphop and rap a valid and conscious change(think in specific with the 'rap-genre',, ist damn hard for surdent 'before hiphop golden age",, people, just to listen to one rap track, without being fulfilled with prejudice, and asap shut down as soon rap begins)
quote:
""""this not music,, its verbally violance, they just talking"""
2. fathers conscious ability and GREAT skills,, to acknowledge, consume, and even analyze on both lyricism and the music,,,That's so so amazing skillfull!!! You are for real better at catching themes, and metaphors,, than most young people are,, which claim to be hiphop listeners! you withhold an almost genius skill, in almost every single track you hear(and even first time listen), to almost, in every track(have only seen 3 vids of the two of you blessed people) pin point the overall theme, for the specific raps, pin pointing in every song, those specific instruments in which is not the "lead music/beat", but that "downtoned, background silently ex piano", which is so undertoned but still has the same layer of validity, of the song as a whole, as the beat and rap layers got ,, THATS FREAKING AMAZING!!!! 9/10!!
3. Think i saw your first pac listening (dear mom),, and you iimmediately, after saying, something about you have heard the name, pac before, and i think you somehow gestured that he's rapgame badass number one!! and then after one verse, besides, shed a little "mom tear",, was able to regonize, that the portrayed gangster rapper, in which he is in public eye's, is far from the truth. I know for a fact that pac was intelligent, and for you to regonize that fact right away comfirm one thing about you....quote:-"it takes one, to know one"
4. Albumwise,,, after one listen you can point out which track is the deepest, most influencing and also the most popular (("""radiohit"",, mainstream))...
U gave me a chock when you said out of the blue while listening to "protected ya neck" with wu from '36 champers',,,, -"That's "RZA" rappin, right??" -think you mentioned it, due to the validity you heard in his voice or something alike!!! ODB, method man,,, those two really stands out flow wise,, in the wu, but RZA wow, am super impressed!!!
and I'll end this comment by mentioning one coresign of high intelligent:: """and a synonym of you""",,,, >>>>>>CURIOSITY !!!!!!
am so amazed that i discovered this channel,,, this is so so high level educational,, in relation to different generations,, which you two provide through music, but if one is able to optain all your "messages",, both spoken and unspoken,, that one person has discovered one of the greatest possibilities to be educated,, in forms no other education tuch at all!!!!
and here dis vid, i can see, you do it vice vera, which only bring one "phd" over the "bachalor"....I see great potential in your channel,, and I do dare to claim,, if you are not gonna get highly known, for this specific content,,, is due to the avarage human being rather low iq!!!!

Glad to see BB Coleman in here, really got into it like 2 years ago, beautiful music
Beautiful! 😙
Sorry I've been awol, SO busy! but I have been watching random selected vids that you put out when I can get spare 10, they calm me down and sooth my soul!. Love to you both as always and of course the FrontRoom ladies.
Ayeisha and mum X
My grandma raised me on B.B King, Bobby Blue Bland, Z.Z Top, Johnny Taylor and more
B.B. King - How blue can you get (live Fillmore east)
Keep these coming. Pops got hella songs to you young Grasshopper lol
Love BB King even when he played from a chair he still had an awesome show. Glad my mom dragged me to the show. Something I really appreciated later in life. Thanks for the video!
BB soul over filled him and he did not waste it. He poured it into a guitar - Timrod
There's a mixup song of bb king- the thrill is gone and wu tang - c.r.e.a.m.
It'd be one I think both of you would enjoy.
Wow, you guys rock,
I thoroughly enjoyed this!
My mamma loved BB King
A Memphis legend 💙
BB King came to my Gma house and they were drinking what they called "Knotty Head"(white gin). My mom(a child at the time) asked my Gma why its called knotty head, Mr.King said cause if drink too much someone going to have a knot on their head! That story took place in a lil town called Midway GA! S.I.P Gma & Momma Peaches
Hell ya dad, great track. Definitely sampled n hip hop, i wanna say epmd…. Keep em comin gents
You guys should watch the BB King, James Brown & Bobby Bland live medley on the soul train !!
The thing about bb, he felt every note and played with his soul
Live me some Blues
Bobby Blue bland ❤
Yall should listen to him
My favorite tracks
Little boy blue &
I pitty the fool
And also the Miracles/Smokey Robinson
All albums but
Smokey is a poet that wrote most of the songs for all of Motown
Love the dynamic and diversity in musical taste you guys have. I hate to be the guy in the comments routinely making recommendations, but at some point you guys should absolutely listen to Big K.R.I.T 'Praying Man' (feat B.B King... and actually him, not just a sample). I'm assuming Kai hasn't heard it based off him not hearing B.B King's voice, and I'm 110% certain both of you will appreciate the substance of the lyrics/story.
Much love and appreciation!
Thank you for educating me on the blues. I love R&B and hip-hop, but never dove into the blues as it was before my time. BB was a master with the guitar. It sounded like you both loved the heavy bass lines. Bay Area rap has a lot of blues/funk influence and has really heavy bass lines. Check out Too $hort the Ghetto to see what I am talking about.
Maybe nobody will read my comment, but ... I am working in the music bizz like 30+ years. I met B.B. King in 2006 and attended a concert in Germany ... I've attended 10`000+ concerts, but if you would ask me about my favourite concert I've attended: It was B.B. King! ♥
Give "Blue Boys Tune" a listen ... epic!
Wow. One of the biggest music-related regrets of my life is not having seeing BB live. (dad)
I was wondering when y'all were going to flip it and the dad shows the son music..awesome dad show him some 80s hairbands sometime #bigfan
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE THRILL IS GONE BY KINGFISH INGRAM. The guy plays guitar beautifully in all his songs✔️
you haveeeee to show him "How blue can you get" live performance, the one he did at a prison, spectacular
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you like this, try Kingfish. He is an amazing young blues artist!
