[PINSKO]

Texas Cannonball, pourin' on the gravy!

Looks an awful lot like Linda McCartney and George Harrison at 4:38.

[koen4u]

[icyustare]

Love it or hate it, it is what it is but I hope The Texas Cannon Ball gets inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.

[atom74]

どんだけぇ～！！

[kezie666666]

great

[indianajoe56]

Apparently 119 people have no ear for a true artist...

[morningwood1985]

True blues players can play with the strap over the front shoulder, not over the neck=P

[dyl650]

@morningwood1985 the only other person i've seen wear the strap like that is t-bone walker, so maybe you're onto something

[gregdee323i]

119 so called people need to look in the mirror!

[beardenj1]

There should be some kind of test before being allowed to vote on you tube, & there already 119 candidates to be tested!

[audio454]

the voice is like a V-8 engine.....Supercharged!

[ehswan]

He could not even rap that guitar strap around his neck. Too God damn big. 

Same with his singing.

There are not many who can live up to a great song.

[indianajoe56]

@ehswan

you haven't seen or heard many blue's artists have you ? Freddie lived up to this.

[1958utuber]

Freddie is King!!

[wd45]

Wherein Freddie shows us that it's not about playing all of the notes, but playing the right ones at the right time. HELL YEAH FREDDIE KING.

[Peso4niy]

bullshit

[w9j15g]

I'm so bummed he died before I was old enough to see him live, but so grateful to you and other You Tube angels for uploading some clips of him.

[wooki321]

the bass players looks incredibly stupid, but he´s got skills

[paygi110709]

Are you kidding??...thats how all bass players should look like

[twerpuser]

@wooki321

All Bass players look stoopid it's their thing

[pegavi011]

PocepO!!

[fevbusch]

Freddie, wherever you are there is ALWAYS sunshine. Swing on, baby, forever!!! Love, love, love....... fevbusch

[scooby272]

youtube -> yves paquet - ain't no sunshine

[drinkmo]

117 peoples have no sunshine

[jonjonjonmw3]

4:38

Looks like Jesus is really digging this.

[TheJimmyT1000]

@jonjonjonmw3 I was just about to say something about that, but I scrolled down and you already did. lol

[TravisHY]

@jonjonjonmw3 I'm not sure but that TOTALLY looks like Christy and John McVie (SP?) from Fleetwood Mac.

It's them. I'm positive now...

[nickthelick]

@TravisHY Yup, sure does look like them indeed...

[bluescanfly1981]

@jonjonjonmw3 As well he should.. it's heavenly.

[TheUnderNetwork]

@jonjonjonmw3 Because Jesus turned water...INTO FUNK! *afro*

[05alexandrou]

@jonjonjonmw3 true story bro'!

[Mustblyn23]

WOW...let met me here you say yeah....this guy is amazing (and I was a child of the 60's)

[ddonog115]

[unikbeing777]

Who is the guitarist in the boot cut pants? I really like his sense of style

[eouteoub]

I agree :) I like this version.

[LCQMusic]

[cougar1182]

[yoyoty88]

Damn he's good

[ghost500e]

Truly some of the greatest music ever made. Love you Freddie.

[adaddyjuice]

Freddie King kicks ass. Nuff said!

[666devilfabricater]

this song deserves so much more views than all the lady gaga and rihana songs put together

[imthecaraleo]

@666devilfabricater I agree with you, but don't worry, it probably had but live

[Erreman2000]

@666devilfabricater deserves? the music ppl like most will get the most views, just cus we like this one better doesnt mean its better smartypants

[666devilfabricater]

@Erreman2000 oh but it is my friend,it is so much more than our everyday rihanna song or kanye west album,this is real music,not about slapping someone in the ass or some sort of twisted love ballad,its just good music,simple and played from the heart :)

[condliz]

@666devilfabricater My generation just really never had good Music Influences that they think Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are 'mUSIC"

[666devilfabricater]

@condliz its a bit sad that its come to this,but im quite glad that at least some of your generation,like yourself apparently,still listen to the same good songs so many others have :)

[5O4evr]

117 ppl dont have a she to be gone, so they dont ever have sunshine, ever

[DunDamage]

take me back 50 years and birth me..... i wish so

[jets2229]

I'm a white boy from south Bama ~~and I love this music~~ enough said...

[theincognito66]

so the people who dislike this song are, what, racist? tone deaf? just not all that right in the head?

[Chamomileable]

@theincognito66 a combination of all of those things, even if the first and last ones are the same.

[yes2bertl]

Thank you Freddie King, this song has made me strong (and weep) when my woman had "been gone" due to her illness for so many times over the past decades - ain't been no sunshine then. Thank you - there is more hope now than ever.

Love and Peace.

[yes2bertl]

Thank you for this song Freddie King. My woman, due to her illness has been "going away" many a times for nearly thirty years now. This song has helped me through this days/ weeks, even when crying 'bout her. Now there seems to be a resolution to her illness - until then I'll keep listening Freddie.

Love & Peace

[franz909]

Big Freddy , My favorite Bluesman ...

[ke1mc2]

darloooooooooo not smart. Sorry for you not being smart darloooooooooo. Get well darloooooooooo!!!

[chooseyourblues]

Freddie used a Quad Reverb. Which was larger than a Super. A Super was like 45 watts and 4X10. Quad reverb was 80 Watts or perhaps 100 and fitted with 4X12 speakers, turned up to distort like that would be VERY loud. Freddie was a killer man... They don't make em like they used to.

[chooseyourblues]

I love how he take his time at the start, changing guitars. A man like Freddie rushes for no man.

[majtymicke]

The Black Elvis! :D

[MrKareemRuiz]

@majtymicke black people made rock sorry

[wick2107]

@MrKareemRuiz who cares?

[darloooooooooo]

i love you polymath7...  like a diesease

[darloooooooooo]

good god did i just stumble upon this god awful version of a classic hahaaaaaaaaaaaa

[ZEUS9A]

I F#$%IN LUV THIS SH*T!!!! GOOD LOOKIN OUT KING!!!

[ChampCarforlife]

Wow! I kinda like his version to Bill Withers.

[darloooooooooo]

absolutely murdered this song, what a terrible terrible noise

[polymath7]

@darloooooooooo Buffoon.

[darloooooooooo]

@polymath7 hahahaha get over your self you clown, i listened again in case i missed somethng & NO still shite !!!

[polymath7]

@darloooooooooo I just glanced at your "favorites" Phil Collins, Oasis....

You're a musical moron.

Your opinion is illegitimate.

Feel free to peruse my "favorites" to see what *correct* taste in music looks like.

[ricchardo]

@polymath7 How VERY, VERY dare YOU!! Mentioning Phil Collins and Oasis in the same breathe should be dealt with by hanging. How VERY dare you. You are nothing more than a common criminal in my eyes.

[polymath7]

@ricchardo I'm going to have to plead "not guilty". You appear to have misread my comment.

[puffinonindo]

@ricchardo HEY THATS AN OFFENSE TO US CRIMINALS

[paygi110709]

Nice joke dude

[indianajoe56]

@darloooooooooo

you are absolutely wrong...

[SoundPlanner]

bling bling

[ihaveaverybadcold]

is that a fender super reverb....yes...yes i believe it is!!

[LONELION17]

TOP BAND !!!! Ain't no sunshine ain't no nothing when she's gone.....

[LONELION17]

TOP BAND !!!!

[887B1Ej99t5bL3]

Online Asian women for daing  oneman4u.info

[9H0A0L0]

why all blacks call them "king"?

[botticelli51]

@9H0A0L0 I'm sure more white people have referred to themselves as King (King George, King James, etc) in our world's history than compared to blacks.

[tommy2chips]

I like this version of the song. Bill Withers version was already bluesy anyway. it just another twist to it.

[barrelhousebonni]

Freddie was one helluva singer as well as guitar player. I wish I'd seen him live.

The rhythm section, piano and organ player are not bad either.. IDs anyone??

[rollingstopp]

good die young--but are never forgotten

[cahrule1337]

Liking the facial expression @ 1:40

[LPdeluxejcm800]

Cool as !

[sk8rbuoi]

@joelbeblue OK and? This video has nothing to do with him so why bring him up here?

[polymath7]

Jesus Fuck, this performance is just impossibly badass....

[davec3487]

4:42, even Jesus is enjoying this tune.

[telecasterbear]

a real powerhouse.

[KoOstAs50]

Awfull....



[Sofiz095]

@KoOstAs50 WTF! IS WRONG WITH YOU ¬¬*

[KoOstAs50]

@Sofiz095

cause i dont like it? i like the Bill Withers version only -.-'

[munnytome]

the definition of cool...

[paulsmulebarn]

It's in a minor. And that looks like Lionel richie on the keys.

[sumrandomer]

@davec3487 - i believe this is in the key of C minor, the scale is a standard blues minor scale, hope this helps! :)

[BlueJohn321]

This King is the King of the Kings and too few know it!

[DirtyDeck]

@BlueJohn321 I'm coming to learn this!

[paygi110709]

The dislike bar is like Lady Gaga's penis, it's little and it shouldn't be there

[davec3487]

Does anyone know the key and scale?

[davidoffon]

How good you wanna be son, how 'bout this good!!

[brunonaninho]

the guy tunes his guitar while playing, so fucking awesome.

[buzzysonofbutch]

whoever thumbs downed this needs to shoot themself in the face

[loserfur]

i'm going to start wearing my shoulder strap like that.

[megajames3000]

now what bill withers.? haha

[Breazeale93]

@megajames3000 Bill who? lol(:

[NeverforgetElvis]

Don't know where to begin. Freddie owns the song. In beginning guitar won't work, new guitar is out of tune while band idles in the background. No problem, people will wait cuz they know what is coming. How about the Hammond B-3 wailing? Need to turn the bass up. But classic moment. Thanx and RIP Freddie

[IndependentGeorge76]

freddie king must've got so much pussy in his time...

[aperisimo]

@IndependentGeorge76

lol

[qthegreat3]

why is the bassist wearing a onsie black jump suit?

[mrSammy169]

@qthegreat3 because he can!!

[yousuckidiot13]

@qthegreat3 if you could wear one at your job wouldn't you?

[mythtree]

wow tune on the fly, while you play & sing and rock like that, so tight that @ 2:50 UH HUH! that;s a yeah!

King rules!

[oliviacnb]

did he originally write this song? or was it bill withers? either way great song

[QuanticoSniper]

Sounds like B.B King and his Lucille

[agiinka]

how u can dislike this song? Its amazing!

[cdeterma]

you don't like FK then you can go ahead and kis my...

[bradeddy]

Yeah!

[RoyalWulffDry]

When did Freddy get so popular on YT? Did a movie or video game come out with some of his jams on it recently?

Seems like last year none of his videos had over a few thousand views. Now they are all rockin out at 6 figures to a mil.

Good to see all the old skool love, seeing as today we are in the "musical black ages" .

Wich proves that there is hope for the future of mankind and music.

[0520bitch]

@RoyalWulffDry are u a redneck or what?

[RoyalWulffDry]

@0520bitch bahahahaha Oakland native here, the necks dont do so well around these parts. Hells Angels aside.

So does my disgust of the majority of todays low talent elevator muzak make me a neck?

[thyblizz]

"My name is Freddie King,...and I own your face."

[Awall804]

Cee Lo? lol

[pistachioguy]

You tell 'em Freddie! Teach those kids how to play guitar.

[bachfor]

All tune - alities are grouped under the umbrella of music. If the note is slightly or somewhat out of 'tune' then that is the way it was played. This is the blues. This is not classical music. Guitar tuning has wasted a vast number of concert goers' time and enjoyment since the advent of electronic devices and the between song tuning up. Speaking of such - why don't the biggies - Greeen Day, - ... tune between songs? ...and why are they always in tune?!

[hgood58]

where do these ignoramuses come from ??? Freddie King was one of the greatest bluesmen of his day..........BB Albert and he were the Kings of the blues. Of course, you do not know the blues or bluesmen or musicology or Magic Sam or Earl Hooker or John Lee who asks how how how how do you say such rubbish????

[blueshero79]

sucks his guitar was so out of tune but hes a legend through and through

[blueshero79]

sucks his guitar was so out of tune

[S1NN3R2106]

Ok people have a right to give this a thumbs down, but it really begs the question...WHY?? Ok you don't like this song, well then move on, but there isn't a dagone thing wrong with this song or this version of this song. Freddie King is REMARKABLE

[RIPdBOON]

does freddie normally wear his strap like that or does he not know how to wear one?

[pedroso494]

@RIPdBOON "se vc não tem nada de bom p falar não diga besteiras"=if you don't have nothing to say...don´t say stupid things

[pedroso494]

@RIPdBOON "se vc não tem nada de bom p falar não diga besteiras"=if you don't have nothing good to say...don´t say stupid things!!! I love all the Blueskings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!
