When I was learning to play guitar in 1971, those close-ups would have helped me a Hell of a lot. My first dedicated 'blues' LP was "Freddie King Is A Blues Master", I've been a fan ever since 1973.
And so was Stevie Ray Vaughan. He learned from the best. SRV also had a great session with Albert King. Albert King is really good, SRV is just in a different league. Check it out; th-cam.com/video/4-apz26BfHY/w-d-xo.html
@@petergorm I definitely agree with you on what you said about Clapton being influenced by him AND SRV - as well as the other two of the ‘3 Kings’ of the Blues 🎸!
My goodness, the passsion! He is so notee with his music, it is Beautiful. What a perfect day sitting in a blues pub, token a cigar, drinkin' a glass of bourbon and talking to a beautiful woman oh and let's not forget listen to Freddie! Then a nice groove can happen!
I love the woman And learned a lesson that I can't forget Yes! I loved the woman And learned a lesson that I can't forget Yes! She's mean an she's evil And now my life is in a solid mess Yeah! She wakes me in the mo'nin A-before the break of day Tellin' me to get up an go out Now an earn myself some pay How she scolds me like an orphan Now and treats me like a clown Ah and when I need some lovin' That woman can't be found I love the woman And learned a lesson that I can't forget Yes! She's mean an she's evil And now my life is in a solid mess
+brad newsom Billy Cox was in the house band on this TV show, "The !!!! Beat", backing up all the guests. And the bandleader of the house band, playing the brown Rickenbacker guitar on the right, is Clarence Gatemouth Brown.
As well as Billy Gibbons, and Dusty Hill of ZZ top..Dusty even played with him on a few occasions ..said you'd better not mess up playing with Freddie...
+L3ONARDO07 They're pretty drastically different. The only two real things they share playing wise is the fact they both play out the blues scale (as you'd expect) and they both played 355's giving them some tonal similarities.
This instance is probably due to the TV lighting. The light required for filming made the stage incredibly hot in that time period, no LED lighting yet. Plus, Freddie is a big man, working hard!
👍 Definitely 1 of the great 3 ‘Kings of Blues’ 🎸ist’s (Al and B. B.) imo! BUT I think he should wear a scarf of some kind around his neck to wipe off the sweat - like Pavarotti always did. (Although it just goes to show how much feeling and emotion he puts into his playing!) * You can also hear just how much Clapton was influenced by him, and others too.
A real bluesman through and through….RIP Mr. Freddie King 🙏😇😍
no overdrive, no delay, hell no whammy bar, no echo just a guitar what a great player
MV............and that Singin !!!!!!!!!!

We need music like this today. Love watching the band…..so much honest emotion.
Teskey Brothers
trouble is the excessive wanking that results from a lack of taste .
this gives me chills freddie kings voice is always gold long live the king
Freddie was a King!
THE king
He lived for his music. You can see him sweatin on every single upload. Mad respect to the biggest guitar player of all times.
I'm dying.... this what started it all!!! Clapton, Bloomfield, Page, Hendrix, Greene, Kirwin.....there is no end to the list!
and king still the best
This is musical mastery

My favorite King.
🔥 energy in his playing and vocal.
Just killer...
Freddie King.. The Man..
What a voice, What a guitar player.. Just so Awesome.. 👍
Just possibly the greatest electric bluesman of all time
One of the 3 Kings, Freddie that I enjoyed a lot. Long live blues music until the end of the world.
This man can play the blues and that there guitar!
Nobody plays it like Freddie King!!! So much energy in those notes, you can see why he makes all those faces while playing. A pure blues God!!
Real music, legendary soul power
Best tone I've heard from a King of the blues
It's incredible how much control he had over his vibrato when he actually wore his guitar "wrong". He was the absolute man.
he wore it Texas style , quite different from wrong . I guess Albert Collins was wrong too . I guess Johnny Winter didn't know how to put on his strap
@@duelenigma7732 THIS!!!
Absolutely legendary for so many reasons, you can tell how much Clapton was influenced
Eric can Say he loves bb, buddy , muddy,...but his n1 was Freddie, i could swear
And so was Stevie Ray Vaughan. He learned from the best. SRV also had a great session with Albert King. Albert King is really good, SRV is just in a different league.

@@pabloperez4063 Something truly different about Freddie. All those guys were legends but Freddie is my favorite still.
Happy birthday, Freddie. Long live the king
This is the song that put Clapton on his path.
Jason Keith yes. Just saw the interview with Clapton where he said that. Search TH-cam “
Clapton Harrison guitar “
you can hear it...:-)
i can hear a lot of SRV singing
Eric knew how to find the very best in músic
And somehow he still ended up a racist douchebag. The mental gymnastics aren't really surprising anymore.
Damn this guy was one heck of an ax man. This is music as Good as It gets.
My goodness, the passsion! He is so notee with his music, it is Beautiful. What a perfect day sitting in a blues pub, token a cigar, drinkin' a glass of bourbon and talking to a beautiful woman oh and let's not forget listen to Freddie! Then a nice groove can happen!
The truth, no debate, this is it nobody better.
Sing it, Freddie! Such a genius.
choked me up listening to this. my main man freddie king
I love how they show close-ups of the playing. Where Freddie plays with fingers picks while Magic San played with only his bare fingers.
So much soul in this
and sweat
@@Kindacutehuh wouldnt he have a towel around?
Now the was the good old days 💯
This is amazing.
This is my favorite blues artist. Either him or Albert....I can’t decide
Bluesmen like Freddie surely are the real and original geniuses from the Front.
The others stand by the end of the row.
When you see the band falling out, you KNOW that performance is the real deal.
Awesome music Thank you
So good
What an awesome voice
Yes! No one plays it quite like Freddy anymore.
wow just excellent mr king
Awesome man!!
Pouring with sweat and soul
Tremendo Freddy King. Esta rola, cuando la escuchó, le voló la cabeza a Clapton. Así lo dice en su autobiografía.
Wow!! Now I know what Clapton was trying to do! Great voice!!!
😎 Outstanding & Thankyou
what a player...wow !!!
Freddy could sing and play.
And write instrumental s
Шикардос!
Oh for a show like this now
Love this music the greatest 💕
I love the woman
And learned a lesson that I can't forget
Yes!
I loved the woman
And learned a lesson that I can't forget
Yes!
She's mean an she's evil
And now my life is in a solid mess
Yeah!
She wakes me in the mo'nin
A-before the break of day
Tellin' me to get up an go out
Now an earn myself some pay
How she scolds me like an orphan
Now and treats me like a clown
Ah and when I need some lovin'
That woman can't be found
I love the woman
And learned a lesson that I can't forget
Yes!
She's mean an she's evil
And now my life is in a solid mess
Maravillosa Canción!!!

Freddy plays with so much feel in those single lines !
Best voice out of the 3 kings ??
No. Bbking with a big diference

Easily the best voice
Freddie King playing that hollow body !! 👍👏👏👏😔🎤
Billy Cox on bass? I can't remember for sure but I thought I heard he did this with Freddie.
+brad newsom Billy Cox was in the house band on this TV show, "The !!!! Beat", backing up all the guests. And the bandleader of the house band, playing the brown Rickenbacker guitar on the right, is Clarence Gatemouth Brown.
@@selmerd wow thats Clarence!! what year was this? 60?
You can see where his finger pick has worn away the finish above the sratch plate 😀 cool
Yup....been there, done that...whew man, damn!
Now this is b-l-u-e-s!
This I love 💙
They don't make blues guitarists like this anymore.
EC told me to check you out….WOW
Clarence Gatemouth Brown on the floor with the blonde Rickenbacker
Billy Cox on bass, methinks
oh my god
when was this track released
Fantastic video of Freddie, any info on what show this was? Or when it was recorded?
This cut was the " B" Side of Freddy's big hit HIDEAWAY from 1960 and I preferred it
That's really interesting. Thanks
What model guitar is that...Gibson hollow body cherry red? Sharp! Sho nuff! Get down!
ES 345 Gibson
Clarence Gatemouth Brown!
Gatemouth Brown leading the band and Billy Cox on bass.
anyone knows the date?
Freddie King inspiration of EClapton SRV JLV DAllman guitarist genre Blues 🎸
As well as Billy Gibbons, and Dusty Hill of ZZ top..Dusty even played with him on a few occasions ..said you'd better not mess up playing with Freddie...
When?, Where?, Who? (Freddie, yea I know that one), How?
I Need to know!!!!
I have never loved anybody or anything. Sure. I have said so and tried my best to make people believe me. Even when I tell myself.
Classic Freddie being all cool and shit
Billy Cox on bass.
This story is as old as mankind. 😅😅
…Fock!’n wow!!
この雑巾を絞るような唄とギター
シビレる以外の言葉が見つからない
I've noticed B.B and Freddie had a similar style. Did one influence another or it kinda just happened?
They're pretty different actually
+L3ONARDO07 They're pretty drastically different. The only two real things they share playing wise is the fact they both play out the blues scale (as you'd expect) and they both played 355's giving them some tonal similarities.
+L3ONARDO07 They're definitely different but B.B. definitely was an influence on Freddie
They're prhasing and energy is totally different. I'm just referring to the major licks I guess, but thanks.
God brought me here
My god he’s sweating like crazy how can he stand it
That’s just the blues pouring out of his soul through his pores.
Its amazing
1968?
66
Somebody show this please to those poliphya kids
i Feel a lil James Brown vibe c:
Why some singers always sweat so much?
This instance is probably due to the TV lighting. The light required for filming made the stage incredibly hot in that time period, no LED lighting yet. Plus, Freddie is a big man, working hard!
Clapton brought me here .
Number 1 of clapton, s heroe
Otis Rush
3KINGでも彼が一番ロックぽい。
Annoyed by the endless ads popping ip ...
There’s more band members than The Jets.
👍 Definitely 1 of the great 3 ‘Kings of Blues’ 🎸ist’s (Al and B. B.) imo! BUT I think he should wear a scarf of some kind around his neck to wipe off the sweat - like Pavarotti always did. (Although it just goes to show how much feeling and emotion he puts into his playing!) * You can also hear just how much Clapton was influenced by him, and others too.
Pavarotti's hands weren't busy handling a big hollow-body like a toy.
Well....darn..
He's FINGER PICKIN'??????
Amazing
was gate' the bandleader?
