  • Eddie Floyd performs "Knock On Wood" live at the Washington Convention Center for the Presidential Inaugural Concert in 1989. You can buy the complete concert from Shout! Factory here: www.shoutfactor...
    The black-tie event was an historical moment: an official inaugural event featuring some of the finest musicians of the '50s and '60s from Stax and Chess Records including Bo Diddley, Percy Sledge and Carla Thomas, along with several hotshot Texas blues guitarists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmie Vaughan at the height of their careers.

    That woman could go on to be a Supreme Court justice. Her son could find a cure for cancer. Her daughter could become President of the United States, and on her deathbed she'll remember when she danced to "Knock on Wood" on stage with Eddie Floyd

    Knock On Wood, one of my best all time favourite songs. First heard it in my primary school days and five decades on, still can't get enough of it. What a classic, what a tune!!!

    Too many musicians! All you need is Cropper, Dunn, Preston, a decent drummer & horn section. Floyd always works it - total professional.

She was having the time of her LIFE! Considering how toxic times are now, watching this made me smile. Great energy was created that night

    So sad the studio version gets spoiled by this very Las Vegas meets a gospel church approach. Simply too much people standing on that stage. The studio version was so great exaxctly because it had that restrained but super efficient touch. Here we get nothing but overacting and Barnum effects. Not my singing cup....
