I mean I don't think he was exactly a good guy behind closed doors if you actually listen to what he talks about in his music and hear about the crime he has done, but nevertheless I think of him like a outlaw guitarist from back in the day, he's phenomenal

I saw Bukka once, but I was too green to appreciate what I was seeing. Never saw Wolf. Many missed opportunities, but anyway, thanks for the great upload. If I'm not mistaken, Kilby is playing the back side of his autoharp like a woodblock. No strings or chord bars in sight, and anyway it's hard to see how autoharp could have accompanied Bukka even in a master's hands.

That's not an "autoharp", it's a metal-bodied Nation guitar with internal resonator cone. ( whoops, viewing this on a phone, I had to look carefully and watch twice to see the guy with the autoharp, he's somewhat obscured by Bukka).

@davisworth5114 3 жыл бұрын

I thought he was great and it's clear Bukka like it or he would have told him to stop, are you ignorant, that's what folk music is all about. I believe this was filmed at the house in Newport where the musicians stayed during the Folk Festival. Bukka was backed by Washboard Sam on many of his 1930's recordings and Bukka asked me once whatever happened to him, of course I had no idea, he apparently just disappeared. Bukka had a sweet inner child, his nose was broken in a prize fight in Indiana during the Depression. As everyone knows, Booker T. Washington White was BB King's older cousin and helped BB get his start in music in Memphis.

@billyfox7089 3 жыл бұрын

"That guy" was Kilby Snow, an enormously respected Appalachian musician who performed at the festival. And that "whatever" is an autoharp turned over backwards. It was a party not a stage concert, so let folks get happy.

Pfff That guy is kilby snow probably the best auto harp player to ever have lived .. read up on him and don’t judge much if you don’t know
