Well said. Ain’t nothing mainstream that can beat the Blues with Soul🎼

It sounds like a hot MESS

The problem is that blues isn't pushed by mainstream because real talent doesn't interest the masses like the new "music".

Theyre not sellouts. And they don't have rich guys in suits telling them what and how to play. This is real deal.

It's always been that way.

His name sounds like it, too.

Kingfish is a brilliant artist, one of the giants of the new generation. The blues will never die!

His soul has!

@@evchaves what an interesting choice of words. GIANTS is right 😂

@Me you and the Animal shut the fck up bitch

Yea he the king

You’re right. They were both admiring each other’s talent. No egos were present on that stage. Nothing but mutual love and respect.

I believe it is very hard to not admiring Samantha if u are in the same place than her

Doesn’t get any better!

She can play so many styles and fit in no matter who she is playing to. She is a natural talent as is Eric Gales. Go look them up together live. Amazing. All the best to you Kingfish as well. You have a great spirit and talent. The world is yours.

Where are these musicians performing?

Best comment ever lol

Laughed out loud for sure!!!!

Just got a train ran on it

Lmaoooo it’s funny because I watched this and I was like yes I need to smoke lnaoo

I know I do

Christone*

IKR! I thought it was a hallucination! 😆

I videoed most of that show and I never saw him tune that thing!

LaoRhino cause it was not made in indochina.

LaoRhino before 1994 even the squires were very high quality..... Stupid China srtats

@@mikerussell9941 Actually it is made in China. It's not a Fender. It's a Magneto, which is is made in Guangzhou, China. I have two of them and know the owner of the company who comes from France but has his factory here, near where I live.

And was played lefty as well.

Blues speaks to me in so many different ways.. That being said.. those "It’s the only thing" statements are my least favourite ones in life..

Doing all three while watching this.... blues is so powerful I feel bad for those who can’t feel them AND for those who can!!!

Have you ever listened to jazz?

Dont take urself so important, its just ur taste of music

@@smelltheglove2038 ew

He's appearing in history today! I got no doubt people will remember him fondly long after he's left us, shits legendary

yeah, he is sweet.

Let's make it happen

Both of them

And Bass also, can't ignore the Bass!

And the piano.. where ever it was...

@@nen.user.3764 the afro'd lady is fabulous, oh, yes

Shout out to the dude playing the chimes also

@Gordon Payne From what I've read Eric was taught by his brother who's left handed so he learned how to play left handed as well on a right handed guitar.

Soviet hmmm... reminds me of another famous bluesman. :)

Gordon Payne well, of course. Hendrix is the god of blues rock guitar, and there’s no way anyone after him could’ve had even close to the impact he had. He exploded the idea of what guitar could be, and guys like Kingfish benefit from what Jimi did with the 6 string. Doesn’t mean Kingfish isn’t rippin’ in his own way.

Gordon. Stop comparing guitarists to Hendrix. on A keyboard. Please.

@Gordon Payne Kingfish's music isn't about who he measures up too. He does have musicians that inspire him, I'm sure, but Kingfish plays from his own soul. I love listening to Hedrix's music, but I also love listening to Kingfish. I don't compare the two, just enjoy them both for the type of blues they are.

I'm left handed, but learned to play right handed. I actually preferred it when I was younger.

Seems more logical really. Using your dominant hand as your fretting hand lends to some definite advantages. And yet Im still a righty who plays right handed.

@@experimenteight4550 yeah. I'm a lefty playing right handed. I thought about switching but thought it was an advantage playing the fret with my left. Apparently its not about hands...

Thats me. Kingfish is do good!

Kingfish has listenend to so many styles of music, that he has condensed and realized

Ya my unknown friend , that is just crazy ,one of the best 17 Minuten of my life

Just saw her live- incredible

Damn straight! Ain't no competition it's the bloooooose!

Ismayil A Big man took an extra chorus, but I bet they all can blaze. Couldn’t pick one over the other.

This is what the Blues is all about baby

@@arrjee9474 check him out, he goes by kingfish

Totally agree-he’s the next big thing in blues . His phrasing / technique/ feel/ intensity is at that next level . 👍

He even sounds refreshing, most these says copy eachother or sound the same with their licks

Definitely. Omg his technique is just so natural. And he really knows how to play WITH the band and not in his own light

John Mayer?

Dat a fkn fact

Saw Gales in San Antonio last June in a small bar in San Antonio. I wouldn't change any bit of that show for that very reason.

What if it's a jimi hendrix concert at Woodstock 69

These are the real shows... where it happens only once.. thank God for you tube lol. .

Period

@@MrChewy63 For sure! :)

We owe that to the master manipulators in the industry, that brain wash the youth with their trash music and tell them they need to buy some gucci shoes for 800 bucks.

@@DaRza17 The music labels only satisfy public demand. Saying the industry manipulates music tastes is like saying the meat industry manipulates your taste buds. Witch is more likely: the labels decided one day to not satisfy the demand of people's music tastes, and to promote "bad" music for no reason that no one liked, Or, people wanted to listen to new, exiting music that they enjoyed, and the labels roled with it like at any other point in modern history Just let people enjoy their music, and stop expecting people to have the same, subjective music tastes as you. And stop carring what other people ware, it not your fucking money. If they want to waste their money on shoes, more power to them, even if they are dumb for wasting thier money.

You mean you’re not in to all electronically computer produced crap?!

@@jhonsmith2620 Mainstream music is algorithms and science, not expression. Its music written and designed to sell so that the record companies make money. Thats why they all have virtually the exact same sound. its a scientific balance between familiar sounds that people recognize so people continue to listen to it(we like whats familiar, that's basic human instinct) and original enough that people realize they aren't listening to the exact same song. But I kid you not if you were to play 30 of those songs back to back to back without stopping it would sound like one very long repetitive song. like a club beat almost. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Its mass produced, and its largest audience is either very young and impressionable, and the primary draw for them is popularity amongs't peers, bright colors, familiar sound, and the attractiveness of the artists. These companies no longer promote unique sound or talent, because its too risky. They market artists that are going to sell stadiums because that's what rakes in the money. they cant risk promoting an artist that might be just a little bit too much on the fence of what people will like. Studios will do this rarely, if they feel like they can manipulate the sound enough to make it popular. Cue Billie Eilish and Lana Del Rey, who both spiked and faded from popularity at record speed. The notion that music has been steadily declining in quality since the 90s is not a "boomer fad" or a bunch of grumbling old men who miss the old ways, even asartists from the nineties, notably Snoop, Eminem, Dr. Dre, among others, point out whats happened to their own genres, its scientifically measurable, and observable by anyone who has an ear for music and does their research. Music IS declining in quality. Everyone is allowed to like what they like, but allowed mass produced slime to be exonerated and become the acceptable norm lowers the bar across the board. Its the same mindset that allows me to buy a canvas, splash 2 buckets of paint on it, and market it as art. Somebody somewhere is going to try to follow the naked emperor and claim I've created a masterpiece.

I think its good that way, it may ruin the music it self .

HE IS A VERY SPECIAL MUSICIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was thinking exactly the same thing

All three blow me away!

Lol I see what you did there 😉 And after that set the audience said the same the fish did when it ran into the wall........

A guy named Eric Gales is a blues artist who plays around L.A. alot. Now there was a famous jazz guitarist name Eric Gale who recorded with CTI Records and played with Quincy and many other jazz greats. That may be the confusion. Before Eric Gale died, I remember calling B.B.Kings in Universal City to see if it was him playing, but it was the blues guitarist.

@@shagw4286 I just listened to blue horizon, now Sara smile. It's good, thanks for introducing me to Eric Gale

@@adriantopujiirawan5623 Gale was phenomenal. Have you heard him with Quincy Jones? If not, listen to the Gula Matari Album. It's on KZfaq!

@@shagw4286 yeah, I was wrong. He wasn't good, he was phenomenal indeed haha. I'm familiar with Quincy Jones, he's legendary. Glad he's still alive

Being young and heavy isn't a good combination.

YEP WE WERE THERE AND YES IT WAS!

The crowd needs to shut the F up

@@corbetcochran5700 I agree with you, them idiots Screaming is FUCKING ANNOYING!

@@ZENSIBLE how do you think it was in the old days? You think the blues came up in church? Everybody silent like they were at a funeral? They are makin noise because they feel it!

Need to shut up and put those goddamn phones down

You are so right!

I agree, and I get to see him this Sunday night in Memphis!!!

@@scottlong1647 Lucky... enjoy

He’s amazing! I think you will be blown away. I was when I saw him

manb4war - I’ll swim the Pacific Ocean to go see that pork chop on stage in Amur’ca ... he is devastating as fried chicken on a Sunday ... nothing but love for the Kingfish ...

He's playing in Delaware next month! Be there

They got to b on that shit

Indeed they are

Stevie also ofcourse

Don’t forget srv!!

NEVER EVER IN YOUR LIFETIME FORGET THE GREAT STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN

I feel sorry for those who can

@@iLikeToColor69 why? I didn't intend it rude, just saying they miss an unexplainable feeling

I get the blues over it.... ;)

@LeftistNPC Orange Man Is Bad that's what I said. I feel sorry for those who can't feel the blues... Evidently you are one of those

@@TheHirade keep feeling it bro

I hope he gets there. He has a lot of weight to lose to get healthy!

Alex -well, That’s an issue that is for him to decide to cope with. That’s why I never talk about physical characteristics. But he plays the guitar brilliantly and so delicately for a guy with large fingers. I’m just happy to have discovered him last year. He has soul, and I think that sets him apart from the “technicians”.

@@Knight14649 You are quite right.

Seriously under appreciated

He's got some really interesting fills in there too! I need to get his name

The drummer has got it going on keeping it all together!!!

Nick Hayes

Michael Dallara Nick Hayes

And there needed to be at least six more itty bitty frets at the end of that board. You could tell he needed a whole scale more

Best comment

What an awesome night!!!

jkgramps , c’mon now Eric has attained master status. Samantha and Kingfish have a long way to go before they get his level. Gotta learn how to do more than play leads to be a true blues master.

@@sammack1564 I don't disagree. I guess better to say that they've each mastered the blues. I'd be the first to argue that Eric Gales is in a special club - one that (in my view) includes the likes of Jimi and Johnny Winter.

UMMM .....SAMANTHA IS NO WHERE NEAR MASTER STATUS PLAYING OR SINGING. SHE JUST BLEW THE RIGHT PEOPLE. PLEASE DON'T BE FOOLED! SHE'S AVERAGE AT BEST MAYBE A MASTER IN THE BEDROOM. NEXT TOPIC HOW ABOUT THOSE PATRIOTS AGAIN:)

@@5thbassdrum I bet you're fun at parties😵

Well said Billy!!!

there's a reason those type of people flame out after a few seasons

The Jazz and Blues world seems to be more about the music in general. Not going to make a lot of money at it unfortunately.

@@ianz28 There is money in it. Don't let anyone fool you about that. Where you see people there are dollars. I get handed money & usually do 1 or 2 songs.

That’s because he is very secure about his playing!!

I know he did.

LOL!.....Stevie, Bonamassa?. G.T.F.O.H

Gary Moore. Check out Separate ways live

Hah Hah Hah Excellent analogy. but that Strat can handle it! I like hearing the audience's conversations as they play

..then on Sam.

ur preverted. preverted

I hope Samantha at least called that guitar in the morning, cause thats the least she could do

Doctor J and for the poor guitar it was all over far too quickly ✨✨🤔😮😲🤣🤣✨✨🌸🌺🌞🌺🌸✨✨🎶 3 was the clear winner ✨✨😮😲✨✨

Kingfish > Gales

There is a vid of him playing bass to a Prince song on his channel. Eric is the real deal!

That's his style. He was playing Woodstock '94 with Santana. He's no new guy!

Albert King way. Maybe Eric had some trouble with finding left-ganded guitars when he was starting out

His older brother taught him I believe, and learned the same way, so he rolled with it

3? What about the others? hehehe

My thoughts exactly lol!

I think they were playing in a minor but Hendrix's is in b major. I'm I wrong what do y'all think

Joshua Thomas all my stuff is on eBay now.....

Learn to play then learn how not to play it's just throwing all your emotions into the audience if you think about it the magic won't happen

@@collom.o9578 Hexdrix is B minor pentatonic. Standard blues licks and riffs he's playing, but it's all minor. Hendrix was a master of switching between major and minor though. The original of this song is not an example of that switching. But this video is. Kingfish knows where it's AT.

😝😝😝

Add some Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert King, and Jeff Beck and you're all set

Albert Collins.. Guitar Shorty.. Buddy Guy..Gary Moore..Luther Allison...

Exactly, some kid told me once I'm getting lessons at the music store, learning to play the blues........I told him son ......ya live the blues ya don't learn them ...

@@45mutant 👍👍I can sing and play the blues,because of my past dealings with WOMEN ! 😄😁

DAMN RIGHT!

@@BluesCat1980 👍😃

@@45mutant You can learn the progressions and scales, but the ingredient that makes the Blues what it is, is life. Hard times, good times, and everything else in between.

Jon me too!😂

Tears here after king fish cmon

Jon hahahhahah i was doing the same thing and my wife was like “whats wrong you ok” hahaha i couldnt help it man the guitar and the vocals by all of em....just had that gritty ass dig deep into your soul feel to em.

🤣🤣

feel the blues bro, good job

Unheard of? What rock you live under?

He'll probably have a heart attack before long-hows that make you feel?

Joyce Sanders horrible comment but sadly could be true

For however long he may be here it is good to see the young generation carry the blues torch after all these years.

He is just amazing.

So true

I heard B. B. King say in an interview that while he had to think about what he was playing, Stevie Ray Vaughn just "spoke" fluently without needing to pause (I'm almost certainly butchering the metaphor, but that was the gist). Since then it's something I keep in mind when watching musicians and Eric Gales is definitely in the category of not needing to stop and think. He just plays and it's awesome.

isnt kingfish a third his age lololol

@@Peter-ff1tp Boi gotta have enough ROOM for his SOUL!

It certainly looks like he's approaching critical mass! (Yeah I know he's been trying to lose weight...but the gag was there!) Hope he succeeds...I want to hear him when I'm older and greyer!

I wanna hear him when HEs older and greyer

Baaddassery

Now that song that they did was off the hook give him props to the man who put guitar on the book James Marshall Jimi Hendrix the respect to all people showing props to that man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carbon419 that was unreal!!!

Couldn't say it any better. Couldn't have been any better. Must of been a thrill to be able to be there seeing and hearing this. So glad that THE BLUES is alive and well. Much appreciated
