5:25. And Rush is a STUNNINGLY expressive vocalist. His field holler, e.g., at the beginning of a live version I Can't Quit You Baby = the essence of the blues. (Sharp sweater, too.) But, for now, it's back to my 🎸 'homework.' Thanks for the lesson, Mr. Fletcher. Robert Allen
Sweet. Just as he was playing that lead triad, I thought Peter Green and Black Magic Woman. Sure enough, his name came up. I love the minor tone blues.
Kirk, Very well done. If I closed my eyes,I would swear that Otis was giving the lesson. Look up the word blues,in the dictionary,and you'll find a photo of the man.....Otis Rush!
Yes sir. I knew there was sonething different about him. Minor Blues ....ok i get it now. Your a teacher when your nit even aware if your lesson. Lol. I think thats the Gods Image thing.
Thanks for reminding the world of this much overlooked and rarely mentioned great bluesman.

I feel the same way!
Kirk is awesome.
Wow! That really nails it! "Lyrical" really is the word.
Kirk...that sounds better than the original. Respectfully!!!
Man, that is some smooth playing. You make those bends look so easy, and such a pleasing blues tone!
Very nice.
Hope that you are recovering and feeling better.

How long did Hendrix play for Otis?
This bloke is so big, he makes full size guitars look like TOYS!
Super smooth and inspiring….wonder what gauge strings your using? 😃
that ":chordal thing" -- the C minor hammer-on chord. How do you do that?
👍
The gauge of strings looks thin ...is it?

Too much reverb.
