If America had tv this great (as the BBC/England), Maybe we would have had our own version of the "British Invasion".....these clips ARE the REASON the Rolling Stones, The Beatles ever came along. Shame on the USA for being so ignorant, segregated, and not realizing the diamonds in its own back yard. Hats off to England and Europe for giving these artists the respect they always deserved
THIS IS AMERICAN MUSIC, BUT THE ROOTS ARE IN AFRICA. DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT ENGLAND HAS DONE TO AFRICA??????? STILL TOADY.... GO TELLL YOUR STORIES TO PEOPLE LESS IGNORANT THAN YOU.
Wow...me too...! It was a Fever that never left me! and a year later I started playing the guitar and I have never stopped playing Blues even though I am now only 60 years old. Good Evening
God bless all these original artists. Their legacy should be learned by all and our world would be a better place if they did. We all can live in harmony and peace surrounded by great music like this! The Blues bring people together no matter what their background.
I love all The musicians on this Video But T Bone Walker is just amazing the way He cuts through the whole band with his Solo on His Gibson ES 5 is Brilliant I can not imagine the powerful energy
Love the way T-Bone has the guitar slung over his shoulder in the intro sequence - looks just super cool. T-Bone is the incarnation elegance - both in his playing and his appearance.
What makes me in awe of these great, great artist is their influence. These are the fathers of modern music. They will never get the credit they deserve but when you think about it the music of today would so different without them.
The American Folk Blues Festival was a music festival that toured Europe as an annual event for several years beginning in 1962. It introduced audiences in Europe, including the UK, to leading blues performers of the day such as Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, John Lee Hooker and Sonny Boy Williamson, most of whom had never previously performed outside the US. The tours attracted substantial media coverage, including TV shows, and contributed to the growth of the audience for blues music in Europe.
Founders of the American Blues. With the fantastic Willy Dixon! The "inspiration fountain " for the modern music and last but not least the Rock and Roll. Thank you guys!!
Willie Dixon ‘Ran’ Chess studios with Leonard and Phil Chess from Muddy Waters to Buddy Guy. And all points in between ( thanks ZZ) it’s where all the best were.
You know it's great if most don't get it, never going to see this type of get together again with so much blues talent in one place ,but luckily we have this video...of some of the Queens and Kings of the Blues...
If the blues were money I'd be a rich man now, I'm in love but she doesn't love me, I got the blues so bad. Good morning blue , how are you doing, jazz, blues,
It’s always overwhelming to see that many greats together! The gals always bring their own great spins to the Blues!! It’s obvious that the Blues gals have grit! It takes such grit to be surrounded by all those guys!!
PLEASE, someone remaster this historical gem in colour and stereo.... You, too, would be putting your own name into history by playing an important part in keeping this era alive for future generations. C'mon, leave the world with your very own name attached to this history, forever.
Now that there is da Superstar Blues Hustlers that ever was put in One Venue and I'd give my left hand to b dancing and listening and also watching Blues Greats ! Awesome this is !
Saw Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee at the Sydney Opera house back in the 70s, we were so blessed with talent back then I don't think I appreciated it. Now we're in a drought?
Heaviest cats I ever done seen on one stage, ever! Overworn cliche, but only too true in this instance, that it REALLY don’t get better than this. From catfish fry to Carnegie Hall, ain’t nothin’ gonna warm those seats better than presently shown. Thanks for the marvelous post...Good sound and camera, excellent post, credit roll is interesting. Aloha....
Sonny Terry Brownie Mcgee whoopin the blues. T Bone smoothin it out. Willie layin down the baseline and mephus slim walkin them all through it. Jump jack jump.
In later life, if you told anyone you were once in a room with all these players performing in it at the same time, probably no one would believe you. The whole thing was only slightly spoilt by Big Joe Turner not having waddled in from the side and displaced them all, shouting mellow : "We gonna have a little fun, got the blues on the run."
Blues musicians who performed on the American Folk Blues Festival tours included Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, John Lee Hooker, Sippie Wallace, T-Bone Walker, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Memphis Slim, Otis Rush, Lonnie Johnson, Eddie Boyd, Big Walter Horton, Junior Wells, Big Joe Williams, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Willie Dixon, Otis Spann, Big Mama Thornton, Bukka White, Jimmy Reed, Howlin' Wolf (with a band made up of Sunnyland Slim, Hubert Sumlin, Willie Dixon and drummer Clifton James), Champion Jack Dupree, Son House, Armand "Jump" Jackson, Skip James, Sleepy John Estes, Little Brother Montgomery, Victoria Spivey, J. B. Lenoir, Little Walter, Carey Bell, Louisiana Red, Lightnin' Hopkins, Joe Turner, Buddy Guy, Magic Sam, Lee Jackson, Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Roosevelt Sykes, Doctor Ross, Koko Taylor, Hound Dog Taylor, Archie Edwards, Helen Humes and Sugar Pie DeSanto.
Can ANYONE link to a recording of Willie Dixon doing "Shake Your Money Maker"... PLEASE! I've wanted this since mine got chewed up in 1971. I'm running out of time...
I mean I had the suspicion ever since I was 15, but at 71 I concluded that I like Blues best :)))
Better late then never !
Murat abim saygılar ❤
@@boranntoptas8542 Benden de... Kusura bakma hatırlayamadım..tanışıyor muyuz? :))))
I'm overwhelmed by some of the best artists that have ever lived all in one track... I'm gonna die a happy man after listening to this.
We are all richer in life, just having watched this 😎☺
I hope you didn't yet

Truth
shut up! England as a political state (empire) has been one of the principal blood suckers of the world. You talk about segregation? hahahahahaa
THIS IS AMERICAN MUSIC, BUT THE ROOTS ARE IN AFRICA. DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT ENGLAND HAS DONE TO AFRICA??????? STILL TOADY.... GO TELLL YOUR STORIES TO PEOPLE LESS IGNORANT THAN YOU.
La verdad por ser racistas
What a pretty thing! Wonderful Blues and everybody dancing the twist at the end. Black People, thank You for your adorable music.
This video should be mandatory viewing for all Americans! This is American music! The talent in this recording can not be measured.
The Creme de la Creme...
I've been a Blues Fan since I was 14 years old.Now I,m 80...😅
Ditto for both.
Wow...me too...! It was a Fever that never left me! and a year later I started playing the guitar and I have never stopped playing Blues even though I am now only 60 years old. Good Evening
What an amazing, legendary lineup! We are so fortunate that this was recorded. Thank you!
The dance party at the end was a wonderful surprise.
T-Bone killing it as per usual
They are all absolutely killing it. I just love this. Timeless
Masterclass in musicianship.
A perfect example of how music should look like in general.
So cool that this little bit of Blues history was caught on film. Thanks for sharing.
THis is a gem of a performance. Today's so called artists are garbage and it's all noise. This has soul and real artistry in its writing and playing.
God bless all these original artists. Their legacy should be learned by all and our world would be a better place if they did. We all can live in harmony and peace surrounded by great music like this! The Blues bring people together no matter what their background.
I love all The musicians on this Video But T Bone Walker is just amazing the way He cuts through the whole band with his Solo on His Gibson ES 5 is Brilliant I can not imagine the powerful energy
The best there ever was
Ma plus grande satisfaction c est écouter le blues T-Bone Walker et d autres sans relache
The real deal
intro looks like the entrance to heaven..
De Blues dat kunnen en wéten de ménsen met een kleurtje het "ALLERBEST " ( JAAR 2O22 ❤🇳🇱🙏)
Amen
A place where there's no Donald Trump's that will be beautiful
Absolutely....❤
Love the way T-Bone has the guitar slung over his shoulder in the intro sequence - looks just super cool. T-Bone is the incarnation elegance - both in his playing and his appearance.
Yup ask Jimi or Prince.
Class. Nothing but timeless class.
Cool !! I didnt realize Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee were on this too !!
That harmonica is giving me freakin shivers, oh Lawd!
Too funky for words, just right for the soul!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
What makes me in awe of these great, great artist is their influence. These are the fathers of modern music. They will never get the credit they deserve but when you think about it the music of today would so different without them.
It doesn't get any better than this.

Yeah willie dixon, mastermind of the blues
They're twistin! Yep 62 sounds right!
The classical blues never dies, it becomes even more magical when mixed boogie woogie like in this video. Magnificent....Absolutely delightful..
There is no better piano player than Memphis Slim..
This is the actual blues heaven
Memphis is a giant blues artist. If not the greatest.
Founders of the American Blues.
With the fantastic Willy Dixon!
The "inspiration fountain " for the modern music and last but not least the Rock and Roll.
Thank you guys!!

Amazingly beautiful music in the 1960s Great Britain was introduced to the blues

And Helen Humes is not worth to be mentioned in the title ? She is the host !!!!
If the blues were money I'd be a rich man now, I'm in love but she doesn't love me, I got the blues so bad. Good morning blue , how are you doing, jazz, blues,
Now I’ve got that real ‘Blues’ feeling. Wow what a lineup!
It's always great to watch musicians having fun doing their thing.....
It’s always overwhelming to see that many greats together! The gals always bring their own great spins to the Blues!! It’s obvious that the Blues gals have grit! It takes such grit to be surrounded by all those guys!!
Holy shit. How is this not looped 24-7 on all platforms?!?
Classic; classic tracks. Especially because it's live! So glad I shook Willie Dixon's hand once upon a time.
PLEASE, someone remaster this historical gem in colour and stereo....
You, too, would be putting your own name into history by playing an important part in keeping this era alive for future generations.
C'mon, leave the world with your very own name attached to this history, forever.
