Underrated?Its one of the best music movies i ever watched,my father was musician and he loved tgis movie every time we watched it he would grab guitar amd start playing blues
Yes, totally underrated. I think a lot of the references to regional folklore and blues mythology were missed by people who aren't from the South. But interestingly some of those elements were also in Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, with Chris Thomas King's character.
Yeah but it's not really like that in Mississippi. Everybody is welcoming. Nothing like the movie. How was it a blues club in Mississippi and they literally let a white guy from Sweden come on stage and play as harmonica. One of the band members tried to hand me his guitar but I couldn't play it because I was a One of the band members tried to hand me his guitar but I couldn't play it because I was a One of the band members tried to hand me his guitar but I couldn't play it because I'm a lefty. Blacks and whites get along very good down there. However, I guess they had to do it for the drama of the movie.
When the scene opens and Frantz Frost strikes out on that harp....bruh....my soul just......man I can't even explain it. Its the real deal blues from back in the juke joint days. #passtheliquor
Blind Dog Fulton! The funny thing is that the entire group of the guys on stage in the band immediately 'kick in' and start grooving 2 seconds after Willie Brown and Lightning Boy start in with the song. I just wish they would have had the full version of the song in the movie - the one that's on the original soundtrack.
The thing about the Blues is it's been played so much it has become almost sort of ossified, institutionalized and gentrified to the point where it has become stale. Sad but true. It happens to all art forms and it is the enemy of art. Now THIS performance. This is something old that is fresh Joe Seneca and this band behind him are good. They're not ossified. They're roots. Fresh roots that are pumping down into good, fertile, black bottom soil. Getting some good fresh water and bursting up from the soil into the hot, humid, sweltering air of a summer morning with cicada bugs buzzing and blue jays sqwauking. Yep. This is good.
" the blues ain't nothing but a good man feeling bad" when I look at my soul it's too dark to see but I wish I could be good eventually. It's a mountain with a top no one can see but The King. I'm so sick of climbing the summit looks like eternity to me I've been a miner for a heart of gold but come up empty
@@jcosyn The guy in the white shirt playing mouth harp & singing at the beginning is Frank Frost. This was one of the last things he did before succeeding in drinking himself to death.
What's crazy is, if you actually go down to Mississippi regardless of color and you want to play with the band, they actually let you play. Nothing like the movie. I literally had the band that was playing try to hand me the guitar and asked me if I wanted to join in.
I kno the band ...from Greenville ms.. gtr player otis Taylor.. we jam a lot at the oil mill Nelson st..and levi's blues house..drummer fred ..his sons and I are pals since jr high
I'd really love to get this exact version of the song, dialog and all but completed to the finish. I have the soundtrack and it just aint the same. Its good, but it don't have that warmth that this version has.
I would buy a blind dog Fulton album if thr was one. . I'm not sure who that old man playing this role was, but he was great. . I'm wondering if he sang and played the harp himself. . I listened to the soundtrack and this version in the movie was way better.
Frank frost Otis guitar Taylor Mr.price bass player I forgot...my homies from Greenville, Mississippi the Sip...in the movie willie mentioned Greenville were you bound get sum uh huh yeah
my dad show me this movie....couldnt hear the clip for this..on any another app..ig only here..they call me willie (movie)....part where he says..u got balls this big..on this side of the block...iguess was inupiaq..top of US
I could hardly hear Ralph Macchio's electric guitar on this scene. His handle of the guitar looked fake. He did a much better and convincing job with handling the guitar in the duel with Steve Vai
Late response, but there’s a scene shortly after this one where they find a place to turn in for the night and Willie is giving Eugene a hard time about his playing, something akin to “where’d you learn to play those pussy chords, a book?” They also probably wanted to put Willie’s playing out front for this one
Such an underrated film, it was brilliant!
Indeed

One of my favorite films. This scene is the most memorable to me. The real Willie Brown is finally unleashed.

That harp sings like an angel. Never fails to send chills up my spine.
The first 25 seconds is amazing!👂
Nobody gets out of here without singin' the blues.
Adventures in babysitting 🤣😂
@@squirtrussell5558 Yes! Wasn't sure if anyone would get the reference.
you can keep your clubs, your raves, all that electronic nonsense, this is a true party!!

Amen bro
It's called The Blues, not this pseudo crap they play today.
Boomer can’t respect other music genres
Thats what we call eternal, purest, real, music, this little piece worth more than trillion of other nowadays music.
"We got heat on that side", well you gonna get heat from this side if we don't take em back home! 😂 😂 Best advice line ever!
one of the most favorite scenes in crossroads. I love this movie too much. ❤
"I was built for comfort not built for speed" ... love how the beat changes when he drops that line...
I remember my music teacher showing this to me loved this movie ever since
Now that's a real Blues club right there he don't give a damn how big she is that moonshine will have you dancing with a damn elephant
Best Blues movie of all time.
Built for comfort not for speed - got everything a good girl needs - Just love that line :)
I love the slow, dirty blues song in this scene.
This movie needs to be rereleased on 4K!
This came out in 1986. Aweome music movie
When the scene opens and Frantz Frost strikes out on that harp....bruh....my soul just......man I can't even explain it. Its the real deal blues from back in the juke joint days. #passtheliquor
My homies the band
I miss this movie, some reason once it came out on VHS back in the 80's. And then it was gone from the shelves - never to be seen again!!

Yep, one of the legendary fathers of the down and dirty Delta blues, Ralph Macchio.
LOL
Hahaha!! My new best friend. (Kiss!)
joynthis Long Island blues man LOL
Loved it!! This is classic!! This is the blues!!!

Leo ayoroa "Stay Gold "
I wish there was an actual full recording of “maintenance man” because I DO WANNA HEAR SOME MUSIC
It makes me sad there is not.
3:04 SUUURE..I used to see him and Steve Urkel all the time when I was the mom on Family Matters
Weadfreek haaaa
Sonny Terry was the actual harmonica player Joe was miming it
Actually, the harmonica player was John "Juke" Logan. Sonny Terry did much of the other harp work in the film, but not in this scene.

Absolutely amazing I just love it
This show is great.
Such a good film
There's nothing like an authentic Juke Joint! ❤
THE BEST MOVIE EVER
Crossroads is in the Roku channel this month.

Sounds the best party and music would be at a black man's juke as he said. I would love to go to a place like this....
Ein sehenswerter Fim für Bluesfans und die es noch werden wollen zu sehen ist der film auf Netflix
I'd really love to get this exact version of the song, dialog and all but completed to the finish. I have the soundtrack and it just aint the same. Its good, but it don't have that warmth that this version has.
I think that Clapton said few humble words about white guys playing the blues. And he was right
I would buy a blind dog Fulton album if thr was one. . I'm not sure who that old man playing this role was, but he was great. . I'm wondering if he sang and played the harp himself. . I listened to the soundtrack and this version in the movie was way better.
All pissed off people need is some good blues to put them in a good mood
Jo Marie Payton, Harriette from Family matters! "Yeah that's Willie Brown up there!
0:01 what song

1:08 would definitely get anyone's attention and respect!
Who sings maintenance man on the movie clip on crossroads. Does anyone know
Frank frost
What band is this at the start of this scene?
The song at the very begining , someone knows
To bad Ralph doesn't actually play because he's got the fingers for it..
He does play.. He's NOT an officianado. He was classicaly trained as a child..
@@darkheart6854 no he never played as a child ever. He only learned enough to mimic his hands for the movie
Wish he’d have that Telecaster hidden in the background of a Cobra Kai episode…
Take em back home. Sonny Terry
very believable this happens all the time down south . dream on folks.
in what key is this harp?
Actress Jamie Gertz was a babe in the 80's I wonder what she looks like now ?
Shes worth 3 Billon Dollars through marriage and owning interests in sports teams
Smokehouse brown!
Jo Marie Peyton is in this clip.
I heard this scene was inspired by a real event with cast, crew.
❤️🖤
HARRIET WINSLOW? LOL IS THAT YOU BEFORE GETTING THAT GAP FIXED???
Thats some of the worst faking I've ever seen Ralph Macchio
