and Willie Dixon just standing there in the background playing bass like he's seen it all before...
...and he has, because he and Muddy are the two who wrote all the Chicago blues songs

thanks - you're right - when it's a live performance the YT upload is more fun

sometimes the sound quality is not equal to the remastered version, but well, you can't have everything

i can appreciate the amount of musicianship in this version, but it has a bit too much polish with the mixing and a stiffness that comes with old age.
it kinda felt like they were about a half beat behind and a bit out of sync for a good part of it.

but the original on zz top's first album is a different story.
it has a jangly dangling rhythm that sometimes sounds accidental, like the clang off the hip from a big ring of swinging keys as the lead custodian speed walks down the hall towards a toilet emergency,
but they stay in front of the beat and constantly push the song forward.
i'm absolutely positive they had cherry bombs in their pockets when they recorded this
it's really hard to keep your head still during this song

and this **** is fire

I've been listening to ZZ Top for hours.

love his double chops in the intro - awesome stuff

Have no idea what you said there.
You must be a musician.

That is one of my favorite SRV songs.

This also with Lu Anne Barton.
Isn't this band called Triple Threat Revue?

steamraise - yes - I think so re Triple Threat Revue - see link -

i understand the double stop (chop) to be the two note version of a three note chord

OMG this is good.

yeah, that above track is truly great - what a master he is on the blues harp - whoa - he seems to me to get a kinna unique tone out of the thing


I wonder if anybody ever started listening to this one - and then stopped - decided they wouldn't listen to the rest - I kinna doubt it - 24 million views for an r&b instrumental - incredible - that Hammond organ - fabulous -
guitar is awesome too - very few notes - but the right ones - love the whole thing

Sonny Boy II must have loved Green Onions.

Also, there's a famous lick in here that came to be known as the Sonny Boy, or the Help Me Lick.

I had tickets for Booker T Jones Oct 2021 but covid cancelled that. =(

Pretty strong. When the video started up, I mistook Sanborn for Bloomfield.

Yeah they et some pretty cool back and forth going.

unreal the tone he gets on that thing - (he calls his axe Lucille) - I think just him - no one else I've ever heard gets a tone like






.

"Oh Well"


"World Keeps Turning"

i've posted lots of other Peter Green in the thread before, but this is just such a unique collaboration i thought i'd give it a bump.
the one off hook ups with other musicians (caught on tape) is something i really appreciate about blues and jazz

and by all means don't skip this one, this time including mick fleetwood
