Go back much farther, Little Walter, Mr.James Cotton,Lightn Hopkins,Sonny Terry, Brownie Mcgee,Sonny Boy 1&2,Chester Burnett and so many more. It is the feeling and feel.Not just technique! Billy Gibbons can also blow some serious raw stuff. Guess Lil Walter and Mr. Cotton R my favs along with Wolfs rawness Again emotion not chops. Called Blues
If you don´t know him already, get acquainted with Joe Hill Louis. He did the one-man-band thing! No need for massive amplifiers or fancy stage shows!
One of Charlie´s best - especially the CD version is superlative. All you young poppers, rockers and bluesers: this is where your roots are - learn from this and you´ll develop further!
Definitely not out to impress any one...he's a Legend.
I hope to get a chance to see him someday..
..no plans to head over to Hawaii anytime soon, eh?
The places and people he's seen and met. What a treasure. And what a unique style of phrasing and musical vocabulary.
One of a kind. It's amazing how he manages to fit all those whacky licks in time.
Thanks for posting.
Aloha Charlie...
