As folks see, there are two things, the original recording artists (sometimes even anonymous studio musicians) and the corporate entity. Most bands names are copyrighted and it is legal to have a new line-up continue performing under the name, even though the original members are mostly dead. The guy who was lead singer was chosen to be a chubby guy with a voice similar to the original singer of the tune. These guys did a tolerably good job, I've heard lots worse.
this isn't canned heat, this is a bullsh*t lineup. The most influential members of canned heat are dead. RIP Blind Owl, you were the real deal, these guys are are a joke
This is the 2007 lineupp of this classic band. The lead singer/harmonica player is Robert Lucas who fronted Canned Heat until his tragic death last year. Bassist Greg Kage has been a member of CH since the mid 90s and lead guitarrist Barry Levenson joined in 2005. The drummer in this video temporarily replaced Fito for the 2007 European tour.
These morons butchered a classic. Canned Heat was great..

Well, the guy can play the Harmonica, but not sing. This isn't Canned Heat. It may as well be a tribute/cover band.

This is pretty bad. It's like they sucked all the life out of the tune. Are they falling asleep? There's no energy. Robots would have more soul.

Who are these guys? Not one member of Canned Heat is in this video. Not Fido, Henry, Bob, Larry, Harvey, Alan. No one!

Well,Fito IS here. And the video being from 2007 would make it impossible for Henry to be here.He died in 1996.
Alan in 1970. And Bob The Bear in 1981,but you are right:Larry Taylor could have been here.
