The Real Buffalo Joe Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Now that I know he's a blues fan, I almost feel bad for all my remarks about joesixpack's mother. In no particular order: Texas Flood - Stevie Ray Damn Right I got the Blues - Buddy Guy The Jack - AC/DC (I know not a blues band, but still a great blues song.) One Bourbon, One Scotch, One beer - John Lee Hooker Bus Driver - Muddy Waters Love in Vein - Both the Robert Johnson and Rolling Stones versions Boom Boom - John Lee Hooker Crossroad Blues - Robert Johnson Champagne and Reefer - Muddy Waters One Way Out - Sonny Boy Williamson/Allman Brothers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Is You Ever Seen A One Eyed Woman Cry - Earl Hooker Greatest lines ever in a blues song..."is you ever seen a one eyed woman cry? Saddest thing about that woman is tears don't come out of but one eye" and "I'm gonna stop whoopin you in the morning and start back whoopin you in the afternoon" You just don't get many good songs about beating your woman until one eye swells shut and lamenting the fact that tears only come from the one remaining good eye these days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkZ-zLka54A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azalin Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 As far as I know, this is the only film footage of Leadbelly performing. Most of us were introduced to this song by Sonny and Brownie's version at the beginning of Steve's Martin's 'The Jerk'. I'm sick to death of the same old 12-bar blues, so I find this to be particularly refreshing: from The Jerk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Info Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Enjoy this traditional blues instrumental by PF. The guitar by Gilmour and piano by Wright are killer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVjdYyQfa5s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My God man who is that dude in your pic? is that even legal? I've always been a big AC/DC fan. They get a bad rep for not being a good heavy metal band. But they don't try to be. They're a heavy blues-rock band. And those are standards, and a bit cliché, but they're standard for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
