Now this is real music that feeds the heart and soul.

Canned Heat helped revive Blues greats like Gatemouth, John Lee Hooker, Albert Collins and several more. Hite was a Blues Aficionado as was Vestine, They searched the country side for blues albums and players. Bob had a massive record collection that would humble the best of them. I had the great fortune to catch Gate perform and during one of his shows he was on a break and just hanging out in the hallway of the college he was playing at, all by himself, so i said," what the hell i'm a fan, a harp player and blues lover, I have to talk to him!". So i just walked up to him and said hi, how's the show going tonight? Well we talked for 15 minutes and he was the most humble, supportive, and kindest person. He finally looked up at his watch and said, whoa, i have to get back on stage. He signed a poster i had pulled off the wall and said thanks for coming to the show. He played mandolin, guitar and harp that night. Such a wonderful memory in my life.

What a privilege to be there live!! Thank god for this video an the blues In me it’s ALIVE an I’m so grateful to my dad for introducing me to it from a small kid listening in his big CHEV. BEAUTIFUL ❤

I had the privilege of seeing him many times, but never knew he played harp. Once caught him playing drums, too…one of the true greats, Mr. Gate!

Canned Heat have always earned the respect and support of the best blues musicians.

I had the honor to get to know Gate from the mid 80' till he passed. He always told me he thought music could heal and bring people together unlike anything else. He let me walk Him out on stage on his last New York gig at BB King's place and told the crowd how much He appreciated me driving from North Carolina to be with Him. I have never been so honored. He will always be The Man!!

Saw him live in Houston. Unforgettable. Such a wonderful showman. He played every instrument and all like a maestro. An East Texas treasure. Heat must have been intimidated.

ONE OF THE GREATEST GUITARIST,ALL AROUND MUSICIAN WHO EVER PLAYED MUSIC ,FROM HIS SOUL.😎🎸🔊🎶☮️ BOB.RIP C GATMOUTH BROWN.

One of the greatest musicians that ever lived! I am a musician: i’ve been playing for 35 years.... CGB had more talent in his little finger than most of us other musicians had in our entire career... This crowd had no idea what they were witnessing! Stoic. Way too honey

Man....black musicians really know how to jam...!!! I wish I could play the harmonica like that.!

Canned Heat You have my Absolute Blues and total inspiration cuz I believe too my blues music can great healing and recovery of all Hurts n Pains from Life ! Just lay it on,!!

Booommmmb ! my heart stops the time . Only one thing I can feel : MUSIC - REAL MUSIC . Thank you God !

That boogie woogie reminds me of the old time church revivals we use to have, man we would feel The Hand Of God, Have Mercy Everybody!!!!

He might not be with us but he’s never forgotten.....

canned heat toco muchas veces en mexico muchos tuvimos la fortuna de verlos en vivo, un grupo que te tocaba lo mismo en woodstok que en un hoyo fonky de mexico city gracias por tanto blues y boogie.

I had never seen Gatemouth play the harmonica, had only seen him play guitar and violin. Man, what a musician, a true multi-instrumentalist. I'm so impressed now!

“Gatemouth” was an amazing musician, he truly rocked every instrument he touched not anyone left like him now. Never got his due, not just a blues man he could play any kind of American music.

Who can doesn't love that ? It is a perfect blues track !

Who could not love this?

Clarence Gatemouth Brown on the harmonica, it's a pro ! And with Canned Heat, nothing to throw. Thanks ! Clarence Gatemouth Brown à l'harmonica, c'est un pro ! Et avec Canned Heat, rien à jeter. Merci !

Absolutely the greats in times of when rythm was harmonious , the sounds of harmonicas had brought the songs with togetherness and put happy feet on each of us , gave us the Boogie . Loved this video Had the privilege of meeting the Bear , Canned heat, in concert Prince George Canada 1978 The incredible and wonderful Gate Mouth , ladys and Gentleman. Now let's get back to the Boogie. Get it on!!!! 🎶🎶🎶🎶 🎹 🎸 🎷🎤 🥁

What a band and what a talent Mr Gatemouth is 👍👍

The Greatest Musician that you've never heard off ... Gatemouth Brown. Wait until you see him play the other 15 instruments ...

J'adore Canned Heat depuis le film Woodstock 1969 et toujours encore un de mes groupes préféré.

About 30 years ago I was in a record store and I came across a CD of Gatemouth. I had no idea who he was or what kind of music he made. I just thought I'd buy it and check it out. I'm glad I did.

Unbelievable harmonica! Don't think I'll live long enough to play as good. He's having the time of his life to boot!

I played this video for my precious grand boys other day, 3 yrs old & 1 & half, and 3 yr old started shaking it & boogie down just like Clarence is getting down... Then the baby started to act like he was playin the harmonica and stomping his lil foot to every beat... I WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZED AT HOW MUCH THEY LOVED THE MUSIC!!! so now I'm gonna go n get both of them instruments this weekend so they can play whenever they want to at Memaws house.

canned heat is still my favorite band of all time

RIP Sweet Clarence .. we miss you baby

I own an old Gatemouth Brown album released on the "Music Is Medicine" label & he has brought me healing over the years!

No segregation when it comes to music,black ,white keep it tight.

This man can play!!!! I'd love to be playing all along with him ,our styles are so similar, friggin a let's rock!!!!

Wow he owns that stage and wakes us from our slumber ....wonderful and so talented !

Hard not to get happy watching/hearing this!

I met Gatemouth years ago at sellersville theator, he's super talented and diverse and super fun person all smiles

Maestros del boogie-woogie, diplimados en blues, con una electrificación espectacular, una banda de referencia Gracias por su visión de la música negra

this is awesomeeee....the way he brings it on in is the best.

...the end of Canned Heat? Canned Heat is still touring today... ...still respecting Gatemouth & John Lee and all the rest of the great bluesmen.

Cuanto talentos cómo este señor Gatemauth. Se habrán perdido ya sea por perjuicio oh falta de oportunidad...qué viva el talento..........

Love me some Gatemouth! RIP, Clarence!

Poor Canned Heat. So good of them to use their fame to bring an American great to us all. Poor Gate was not used to having to actually wave off a Blues pickup band. :) But they followed despite their massive fame at that time. As good as the music is? Half of Gate's magic was in the audience's relationship. Which is not here in this video. Lord, I do miss him.

Um blues magnifico! One magnific blues. Noger's 65 years old. Noger's 65 anos. MG - BRAZIL.

Eso tan maravilloso que tiene la música, que nos sorprende y hace que tus sentidos exploten al máximo, haciendo que se erise la piel...Saludos Santiago de Chile

RIP Gate. Got to see you twice. Stunned both times at your versatility. Thanks.

Damn, now that's what I call REAL music!!!!!!

Got to sing with and share the stage with Clarence back in the 90s, he let ME sing Mojo!.... sad that he faced such a sad end; such an incredible musician and genuinely nice man.

2019 aug still jamming to this great music no color no bs no bad words just plain ol soul.playimg from.the heart love it thank u

Great show Mr Clarence with this Boogie and The Band Caneed Heat harmonized without him Blind owl only The bear of The original band remained 🎸🎸🥁🎹

La mejor música que ha existido inrremplasable

Awesome performance! Glad I found this!

They don’t exist like this talent anymore. Fucking great!

These Musicians lacked the means but they had the most important Spirit and they played and felt what they did, they did not think about making music in order to earn money, which is what impoverishes the mind. "Long life to the Blues."

Clarence had such an amazing energy!

Al escuchar estas melodías llenas de alegría mi cuerpo automáticamente se mueve.

افضل فن زمان ابحث عن هذا الجيل الذهبي

Great story! The man will be missed.

This is the greatest music performance I've ever seen! He is living so much into the music that is so crazy!!

Dazit man, dazit. Canned Heat set the hall blazing with Gatemouth leading the sweet sensational attack. Great presentation.

What a musician and entertainer..That harmonica is full class and the band is fantastic..A professional doing what he does best..

LOVE TO YOU FROM AUSTRALIA

Grazie mille Roberto per farci rivivere questa musica, questo blues...

Never heard of him? Wow what a talent! Have to look him up and put on list

if you stand in any part of the WORLD and listen................ what do you hear,........... singing....... music.......from the birds and the bees ...if you hear MUSIC .......your body tingles........your spirits are lifted........music is the spice of life.,

simply beautiful

Canned heat is the reason why I bought a harmonica

Wow I just started playing and from all the basic training on utube I picked up this guy's tones tank you so much I'm learning to play hermonica! 🙏💯🤘😎👍✌️😍🎭

Il Blues continuerà sempre a camminare sulle gambe di chi di volta in volta lo suonerà. MV

I do adore this blues wauw brilliant .!High talented blues.

West Louisiana and East Texas combination, right there. God dam me, that man knows the blues

I saw Gatemouth at the Howard Street Tavern in Omaha in 1977. He was probably themost outstanding musician I have ever seen.

What great performers The music of today doesn’t hold a candle to the old stuff

I love the tone from that lead guitar! Killer!

I road for over 50 years Canned Heat was and still is great for riding

Love the respect💙

Fantastic not seen this before, thanks

The Late Gate Mouth was THE MAN!!!!!! Badass

AWESOME TALENT💛 GREAT PERFORMANCE.👍

I saw Gatemouth a couple of times in my fiddle days. Love Larry Taylor.

Just when you think you have heard it all another genius comes to the front pleasure to see and hear

Absolutely Bloody Amazing!!!

Wonderful performance!

A few shots of Jack straight a beer chaser a few puffs of Mauwi wowee and a few whiffs of Escobar's finest and there you go 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

The basis of rock and roll with a little country twist 😁💯

Сегодня ютуб благосклонный и выдает мне гениев губной гармони. Эти ребята знают своё дело !

A very talented performer on many instruments.

What a great showman! Terrific video.

Nice I learned from him too he will always be instrumental in my heart!

What an improvisation, this wouldn't happen on pop T.V.! Great stuff, bring this back!

1:09 its the first blues man i see him doing this kind of lead solo what a legend

Amazing! I loved it! .. keep on performing that thing!

One of the first 4 albums I bought at 14 was Canned Heat. Got to see Gatemouth at Liberty Hall in Houston. Amazing. Ran over a dog in his home town. Wrote a song about it. He’s just a musical genius

I never got to play with Gatemouth Brown. But my relationship with Canned Heat goes back to 1967 when I bought the orange album, with Al Wilson. I took classmates to the Cafe Au Gogo in 1968 to hear them live, after our graduation party. After Al died my relationship was discontinued until 1974, when I was working at a masonry-supply company, and by mere coincidence one of the contractors I sometimes serviced was Al Wilson's father, a mason in Belmont, Mass. We didn't talk much about Al, because he was taking the reported suicide very hard. In 1985-6, when Henry Vestine came to Eugene Oregon where I was getting my BA at U-Oregon. When Henry wasn't away with the Heat, he was playing in my band, Church of the Blues. He was even my roommate for several months. Once I graduated, I never saw Henry again, and he died in 1997. By 2006, I had my MA from Oklahoma State, and had "graduated" from 17 years of truck driving. My band, The Workers, was booked as co-headliner with Canned Heat, which by that time contained only Fito de la Parra, the drummer, from the original Heat, at a small winery-- "Soaring Wings"-- in Springfield Nebraska. It was May 6, but the weather was so bad, everyone went home except maybe a hundred or so people inside the winery. We played, and then Canned Heat played. And finally, 39 years after I got that pivotal LP, I got to play with Canned Heat. The next day, Fito even found me a joint! Only de la Parra, whose book chronicles the life of Canned Heat, survives today. I'm Watermelon Slim, and you can get my CDs and DVDs at www.watermelonslim- dot-com.

i was ten feet from Canned Heat in 1978... great show

I saw a lot of people in there not apprecited with his God given talent on that harp. Only a few people and the dynamic band Canned Heat. Wish he came to New Zealand would have given him a Maori greeting performance RIP Clarence Gatemouth Brown

Clarence blowing up a storm on the C harp, sensational stuff!

THIS IS EPIC!!

I guarantee you ruffed the feathers of more than a few Canned Heat faithful. There are legions of us. They are way more than a "white" backing band. Don't forget to boogie. old guy

Don’t boss everyone! There you go again bossen everyone. That band is so right on don’t need you Clarence.

I asked Gate once who his favorite band was and he told me, "the Heat" was!
