I met Chris at a small club in Marin County a few years back and I have to say he was one of the kindest and most gracious people I have ever met. And you can see it here -- 0 ego. He is so happy to be rooting on as Delgado takes a blistering solo, enjoying it more than the audience even. He is also the baddest bluesman I have ever witnessed. A 100% authentic and mature artist. He BELIEVES every note he plays and every lyric he sings. A national treasure.
This Cain is a legend plays like a legend, he can mix his style with Albert king and some bits a BBking its old school playing I can't understand how this guy is not projected to the top in pair with all legends, his playing is addictive. God bless you.
Good question Tim Nelson. I would think a person of his talent would have been on there long age. I guess these days it’s more about popularity than talent.
Had the pleasure of seeing Chris perform this weekend.. Got to meet him too, he was so kind and humble and truly grateful we made it out to the show. Genuinely a great man who can rip a guitar and sing a mean note... best show I've been to in awhile, I was mesmerized. His new album Raisin Cain is a straight bop.
Chris is a real man ! Let Joey do his thing and shine ! We all know Chris got nothing to prove he is one of the baddest blues guitarist ever .....Awsomm playing the band is just blues to the core great players !
Chris plays with what they give him haha the came to my town 4 times (salto, bs as, Argentina) came last time with a dot epiphone and in the bar I plug it in a frontman 100 ... he ripped our brains out everyone. that day he finished the tour to go to the bonamassa cruise and that day he give the epiphone to a friend of the representative ... incredible man
I thought I was the only one yelling Chris's name. I believe pound for pound hes one of the best living blues men out there,a lot of people dont know it but hes also a MONSTER on the keyboard too! My favorite for most of my life has been Johnny Winter and when he passed I started searching more and two guys really popped onto my radar WALTER TROUT AND CHRIS CAIN and between those two I became so impressed with those long finger slides even give his rhythm play that smooth lead sound,of course theres always Schofield,Fletcher,Kingfish etc. Thank you God for choices!
Had the good fortune to see both of these masters play with their respective bands at The Poor House Bistro in San Jose on more than one occasion, and they are always great shows. Ive got to say though, Chris's comping during Joey's solo is sooooooo tasty.
I'm occasionally practicing this solo by Chris for a year now and still can't match his absolute crazy dynamics...so much detail and expression in his technique it's mental. And ofc there's so much to learn from his creative usage of diatonic and melodic minor super impositions. Definitely a G.O.A.T. imo
I live in Chicago and sometimes I get spoiled but this man is a treat. He is my new favorite! He can come stay at my place for free if he lets me hang out with him and take him to blues bars like we are buddies! Call me Chris! I am god photography on Instagram. And that Guy Johnny ain’t no joke! Who is Johnny? I think they said that in the 80s. Who is Johnny? He’s right up there with him!
got a trouble making woman she does me wrong all day long. my trouble making woman is mean from dusk till dawn. i warn you baby one of these days i'll be up and gone. fire coming from her eyes. and nails as sharp as knives.
I was just wondering to myself if anybodys seen his organ player get up and get lose before? I saw him get up and blow some of the meanest,rawest blues harp I've ever seen on one video the whole time chris molested that keyboard until its underwear wouldnt fit right anymore!
A group of great players having a good time, Chris Cain a great front man and musician.
Some of the SWEETEST MOST SOULFUL GUITAR PLAYING THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD...!😮😊
Every band member is gold in this group. All awesome. Amazing performances. Thx for sharing this! Whoa! Gotta luv dem blues!

Love it! The band is great letting the guitar players wail.. but it's a very great wailing.
The blues are in safe hands with these dudes

This is a top notch blues video. Up there with the greats.

old-timers kickin' up a fuss, boys got more than a bit left in the blues tank.

Sheer joyous tones
Joey Delgado nailed it!!!!
Cris Cain un Maestro. Comes to my country Argentina to teach blues.
Joey Delgado !!!!
Just....SPECTACULAR!!!!
that Delgado kid is pretty good too.
He's like 50 why are you saying kid
Great playing by Chris and Joey. Delgado really nailed it. Great solo and finish.
Two monsters here. Wonderful.
That was moving!
I wish my grandpa was this cool !
Wow these guys are awesome!🙏🏻
These guys are The Real Deal. Fantastic
Both damn fine players, and probably damn fine people too. Chris startled him there at the beginning lol
Fantastic. Thank you.
Joey Delgado is a BAD man!
Love your music ,,awesome job..
so outstanding I could only wish to get half that good.
Delgado's style reminds me of my personal favourite Matt Schofield VERY much..
I didnt see it but yes you're right.
WOW!!!🙏🏻
Man, I like his 335 sound wow, but he is so damn smooth on that Les Paul
I'm occasionally practicing this solo by Chris for a year now and still can't match his absolute crazy dynamics...so much detail and expression in his technique it's mental.

The blues! Awesome Chris.
Ooo and ooo that wuz a good one...
thanx Lynda and cheers
Joey is a wicked player too. Great vibrato and bends
Yowza!!!

Just WOW!
Chris Caín The Great
Chris we are waiting for you in Paris !!
Great stuff guys!!!
so cool wish I was there in the audience drinking whisky;-)
Love it ! Thanks for sharing !
Wow that makes me wanna play the guitar. Thanks👍
Wow, real blues players! No TMFN(too many effing notes) for these guys, just great feeling. Nice.
So so good
Due grandissime chitarre!!!
Sono veramente bravissimo
Troublemakers help you appreciate good people better. :)
Listen to that bass
Love when Chris breaks out the Lester
Nice touch!
awesome
♥♥♥
yaaaaa démentiel !
Joey OMG
ooo, that wuz a good one
Wonder why CC ditched the 335. He sounded larger than life on that axe!
Todd Hooper: He didn’t. Elects to pull out the flamy LP from time to time, which a late friend purchased for him in the South Bay.
I bet he wakes up that same way larger than life,I heard him play a borrowed strat so hard I thought it was gonna catch fire while he was holding it
Delgado has great feeling, touch and chops. Certainly a worthy accompanist to Chris Cain, to put it too mildly.
The 13 dislikes must be trouble making women!
Chris sounds like John mayall and the bloke that did reet petite.
got a trouble making woman she does me wrong all day long.
my trouble making woman is mean from dusk till dawn.
i warn you baby one of these days i'll be up and gone.
fire coming from her eyes.
and nails as sharp as knives.
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet
Do you happen to know if the bass player played in Chicago many years ago and in Dayton Ohio ?? Snapper was a name he may of went by?
No his name is Michael Be Holden, he’s from Philadelphia.
@@LyndaLaHue Thank you
4:20
What 14 non-musical nimrods gave this video a thumbs down?
i just always wanted to say that.. maybe you should get a twitter account? lol
shark air It takes more guts to say it in person.
Who’s the drummer ?
Ahmad Zablah Rena Beavers. If you click on the little triangle under the video on the right hand side you will see all the muscians listed.
Lynda LaHue that’s the fastest respoding ever! Thank you
LOL.
I was just wondering to myself if anybodys seen his organ player get up and get lose before? I saw him get up and blow some of the meanest,rawest blues harp I've ever seen on one video the whole time chris molested that keyboard until its underwear wouldnt fit right anymore!
Imitate BB king without reaching him
Wow! BB King died and came back to earth as a white guy.
9:27 they all congratulate him for not having a heart attack on stage
