Conan is so far ahead of his contemporary late night show hosts ,as an interviewer. And entertainer.
The greatest to ever do it.
I agree, if only he wasn't so anti-Trump like the rest of them.
fallon and kimmel are bozos. and corden is just not funny but keeps trying to be
@@sirkayda7205 Being anti-Trump is a bad thing? Trump is an idiot. And everyone who says otherwise is an idiot too.
Here come the politics. Just leave it at the door.
Can we get a series where Conan travels cross country to learn different styles of blues? Texas blues, Louisiana blues, etc.
@Jew Adolf Adolf was a Jew yes, azakenzi Jew.
sick idea. yes please!
@Jew Adolf SRV !
Conan & Nitzinger... And
L'il Ed & Johnny Red.... Yeah.....
Ft. Worth's J&J Blues Bar would pack'em in!
Tennessee blues is the best

The Liquid Snake aka Conan Obrien
@@williamcruz7976 conanomachines son!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He has the power to create such a vibe, it's like he lives in a world in which everything is ok and there's nothing wrong. Everyone of his videos is a relief from the sadness of this world. I really hope he knows it
A few years ago I met lil Ed at a Guitar Center. He is a wonderfully friendly guy. He even complimented my guitar playing. We talked guitars and guitar pick ups for a little while. I've seen him live several times, he always puts his heart into it.
I got to meet him too! He's a great guy, and a great showman. He came out into the crowd and sat on my mom's lap while playing a solo. She loved it! Pookie was really nice and talked to me awhile also. No one should pass up the opportunity to see them. They're a great band and a lot of fun.
L'll used come up to Thunder Bay for a few gigs.
Do you play this kind of music?
@@desertcamel6685 yep
@@mrartistbill would you be interested in making a track ? I would pay you..
"nothing badd has every happened to me"
*gets dream job stolen by jay leno*
Jay who?
Toooiiinng!!!!
*satan
Honestly, that’s best thing that ever happened to him. We wouldn’t have this conan if he had that job.
Jay Leno isn't half the entertainer or interviewer Conan is. Maybe in retrospect it was best that Conan ended up with this job though. Too many restrictions with the Tonight Show.
Conan is playing a Tele through a Tweed... sweet.
That tele is beautiful tho
He knows what he’s doing. 😉
I can smell them tubes from here 🤣
you think it's an old worn tele or a custom shop?
@@arpeemac its kinda hard to tell. There are few tele blackguards out there that are almost in pristine shape. The fretboard looks worn but that could be the lightning. All I know is that conan can afford a pristine vintage blackguard from the 50s lol.
Conan Obrian: "nothing bad has never happened to me".
Jay Leno: "Hold my beer".
"Hold my show for a moment"
*O'Brien
There it is. Was looking a comment like this.
Nobody talking about Lil Ed, dude was awesome
Saw him a couple years ago in Chicago where he played for like four hours. That smile he has on his face when he laughs at Conan’s jokes--he wore that all night in reaction to the crowd and his band’s music. Hell of energy.
Ed is a freaking treasure. His band used to play at the club I worked at from time to time. Even got to see him when I was "accidentally" on Acid. Literally mind blowing. Haha. But for real, he's the kind of showman that makes you feel like he's playing right to you. Glad to see him get some high profile exposure.
Regina Ayat that’s awesome lol, thanks for the story
@@jenso413 : he really does all that duck walking on his toes. one time he was rocking so hard he bent so far back that his fez was on the floor and he was standing on his tiptoes and from that bent-over backward position he flipped up into the air back onto his feet. What a showman!
I saw Lil Ed live and met him. A great musician.
Ahh that great feeling of finding a remote you've never seen before
I wish conan would just live forever..
As long as you don't, then yeah. Cool.
If you go first, you'll never get to know,so he might as well
Conan is great at everything he does and can adapt to so many different cultures. Surprising for being a pasty pastry.
"Surprising for being a pasty pastry"
Oookay......... this legit?
Moif absolutely unsurprising
As if blues wasn’t a part of American culture
@@ColinPoint It was invented by black people though?
Kellogs Yes it was, like some other genres. But music touches the soul. Good for acknowledging it though!
"I've got about 20 minutes" killed me. Conan is forever #1
Conan's guitar looks like an old tele from the 60s, but he showed up with a soft case. Anyone know the story on Conan's guitar?
I want to know about the guitar too
Fender should make a visit with Conan
What makes you think it's from the 60's (as opposed to being a reissue or something from the CS)?
@@joonasarmpalu7805 Conan has dat dough
it's probably a fender custom shop 52 telecaster.
The two aren’t mutually exclusive
Lil Ed is a straight-up Chicago music legend.
His uncle, "JB Hutto" was one of the best slide players that there ever was.
@@purplestuff Was taught to play the guitar by Elmore James himself. J.B. was Elmore's drummer at first. The master slide player Elmore and J.B. were pals, and between sets, Elmore taught J.B. guitar. J.B. then taught his nephews to play. Lil Ed and James ''Pookie'' the bass. :)
Conan is talented in many ways
*various 😉
@@henkkman why many no good
@@simonorwellit’s a reference to Jordan Schlansky
TH-cam's algorithm is crazy, was into Conan videos a few months ago, been into guitar videos recently, and now theyve combined them
Wtf same
Elvi Gonzalez same here lmao
Well not crazy at all then, talk about logical, at least in that case.
Same here
Same
The ironic thing- if Conan were still host of the Tonight Show, they wouldn't have the mess they have right now. He's a rare multi-faceted talent- a great writer, producer, standup, improv, musician...not many people are good at one of those things much less all of them.
He is bar none the best ! No late night show holds a candle to conan o brien in my opinion ! Talented on every level and he identifys with everyday people on a regular basis !
Rewatching all the clips cause I just found out the show ended. Best late night host ever, I don’t care about all the valid points you could make against it. All I know is that this man stayed funny for 20 plus years and that’s some legendary stuff right there.
Conan's the saviour in this quarantine
That was classic. Lil Ed was a good sport & a good guitar player.
Conan needs to get the guitar out more often.
So he can rub it all over his body in a sensual way.
he had it out all the time during rehearsals
the first time I saw him play on the show I was like oh shit dude isn't faking it
@@spikekatsuki and that's why we need more scraps 😔 but also i think they mean, use it on the show more
You have to be kidding. He is not even an average at home player. Your taste is all in your mouth. And what the Hell is a North side legendary blues club? Is that part of the humor here? As for his place in late night television.....he was a better writer than he is on camera. Some of the comments about that are spot on: Corden isn’t funny, Kimmel is funny at times, Fallon must have nude pictures of someone, Colbert is funny, Team Coco.....whatever. Letterman was very funny. Copied all the time.
Respect to Conan for actually playing this. I didn't know he had some guitar chops
Lil' Ed is so cool with Conan.
He said don’t keep repeating it, but that’s the blues: they always say it twice.
It is his witty sarcasm
Julia Set Not always. Not always.
@@peterritchie2990 We hear you down south in Mexico. We hear you down south in Mexico.
Lil' Ed is so good, I looked him up on TH-cam and heard him play "Hold That Train". Now I want all his blues.
i keep listening to his stuff when i am driving. perfect driving music. exceptionally good blues music.
I love this man with all my heart.
Conan's incredible.
I haven’t laughed so hard in months...thanks so much Conan...a shining beacon amidst the darkness of 2020❤️
Haha I love how lil ed just gets Conan
Love the fact that he Is bringing the blues to a wider crowd
Lil Ed is a great bluesman and probably the best slide player around today. His uncle JB Hutto was one of the original true Masters of Chicago blues and the slide guitar, and Ed, is a very worthy successor. I’ve seen him four times in small clubs in Florida and he is a true gentleman. Over the years I’ve hung out with a lot of the old Chicago bluesmen who are no longer with us. Most were Great guys. So willing to talk in the club in between sets. And I mean masters, like Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Magic Slim, Jimmy Johnson, and many others, as well as Ed. Great guys.
'Orthopedic pillow' lmao this dude can never die. ❤❤
Conan is at his best in these situations...so natural and open to whatever happens. So funny. Love me some Conan/
When this virus is all said and done with, I want Conan to do a week of shows here in the Windy City again.
Lil Ed and the Blues Imperials are amazing. Have all their albums.
5:19 Conan's got that Jack Skellington bod
I wanna see more of them just playing together
Thank you for uploading this!!! I remember watching this back in 06 and have been using the Admiral Huffington line ever since.
Conan brings Joy to this World! 😊😊😊😊
Hey! I saw Lil' Ed & The Blues Imperials on stage in Paris in 2005.
Awesome!
Thank you Conan for keeping me entertain through this lockdown!!
Conan carrying around a vintage tele in a cloth gig bag, total boomer move.
I mean yeah he’s okay. He kinda just played rhythm the whole time and it’s a simple 1 4 5 progression but yeah he’s okay :)
Excuse me pal,....... lazy stereotyping babes. Cloth bags r 'in". Likewise Vintage Tele... Get with the Program Buddy!!! 💥😁😘😘😘😝😎💥🖤🤟
@@ashfordartcornwall3790 huh?
@@cflores1889 Eh ?
@@ashfordartcornwall3790 I'm just saying a ~$5,000 tele should be carried around in one of those cool tweed flat cases.
That last bit was rockin!!🤟.. he needs to do more of these!
Seen Ed a few times at BB KINGS NYC, Glad he is getting some Love .
The funniest dude around probably cause he’s just so dang smart.
Conan: 2:57 "You're a very repetitive guy"
Also Conan: sings same note for entirety of the song
He dropped about a semitone when ending the phrases
_ Spadix _ lol close enough 😂
Microtonal? Half a semitone? 😂😂😂
That call and response track with Conan commenting would seriously have been a novelty hit in the late 50s/ early 60s.
Lil' Ed tolerated Conan in various ways.
It's not his lil' show. He's lucky to even be there.
@@robertklone8437 😂😂😂😂
that duetto was awesome… :D and very nice sounds all through out!
Conan's stuff is always funny and feel good, make me happy
Hey it’s Conan O’Brien, I don’t know much about him but the one thing I do know is that he is a great Mexican chef
Wait he had "Lil Ed'" on?! Are you kidding me? I love Lil' Ed And The Blues Imperials.
How can he think so many things at the same time?
I like Conan more and more everytime I see a new vid. He plays guitar, too? MY MAN! 🎸🤙🏼
The blues seems to be coming from that hat.
Like frosty the blues man.
Shouldn't it be KFC?
Nothing blues about that hat... especially the vest. And red shirt.
this was worth my time
3:57 legit almost made me spit the water I'm drinking
LOL...that is good stuff, and Conan appears to be quite legit on guitar. Love the Telly!
I know its Conan's show but: props to Lil' Ed!
B.L.U.E.S. on Halstead - great to see it's still there! Spent many happy hours there as far as fourty years ago...
Lol... About five seconds into this I realized I've seen Lil Ed play in San Francisco a long time ago...
Love Lil' Ed and have seen him many times.
That telecaster looks sweet af
Man this guy always cheers me up
finally, you posted this
"Nothing bad ever happened to me"-Conan O'Brien
Brilliant! Enjoyed that.
Someone gave him Elton John's sunglass collection apparently for this video
based on the title, I thought it's a CLUELESS GAMER segment
5:24 "Call me the Liquid Snake", maybe it is?
Hahaha what a boob .
Jk I can see how you thought that lmao
Man, I just love this guy
HAHHAHAHA i can't Breathe!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
cool .way to go ,Man..Lil'Ed is super!
Lil' Ed Williams seems like a funny and relaxed dude...
That's not Martin Laurence?
I saw Lil Ed and the Blue Imperials back in January of 1987 at the Lone Star Cafe in New York City. He opened for Mick Taylor the former Rolling Stone.
Conan with that geetar looks like Steve Winwood surgically altered
Conan has the really rich white guy blues. And he rocks it pretty good too.
That was fun! Love your Tele, Conan. I’m trying to learn to play on a Tele.
Nothing says blues more than going to the spa for aromatherapy. I loved that so much!
Conan rocks with Lil' Ed. Merci, thanks. Lili Kiki from France.
Look at that vintage tele through a tweed blues jr (I think). The relic is fantatsic! I am a big fan of T-style guitars
Conan dressed up like Where the light is John Mayer and playin' blues. wtf
IDE-YA lmaoo
I have that same Ritter guitar bag. Neat.
6:19 Why does Conan look like buckethead lmfao
Awesome 🤣😂🤣🤣❤❤❤
A true comedic genius! Him and Colbert are the best in the business.
I love you Conan! My dream is to some day say it to your face
DAMN, YOU GO CO, GO,,, TEAR IT UP BABY, DA BLUES AIN'T NEVER GONNA BE DA SAME,,, Conan ROCKS!!!!
Vintage telecaster in a soft gig bag... that's a power move 🤣
Admiral Huffington is gorgeous 😍
"Call me the Liquid Snake.", well that means a lot.
This is the first time anything main stream has made laugh let alone got my attention in years and years !!!!
Conan is a legit "Funny Man".. Hilarious. Love it!
Aaakkkk another conan's playing guitar and that guy's voice 👌🏻
Blues learning conan
Man Conan, I got a great chuckle , dam who knew , b.b. o’brien
Thanks Conan for keeping Spirits up, Luv U !
Wow, Conan doesn't age. This was from 14 years ago and I didn't realize it until the end. I thought it was new.
Lil Ed sounds great
