[jlemko]

This is the real deal stuff!

[macinfloydvolk]

Homesick was Elmore's brother .. learn you Blues Family Tree people ...

[hondanut13]

@macinfloydvolk Homesick was not Elmore's brother...Homesick was born John William Henderson but later used the name James A. Williamson (April 30, 1910 - December 13, 2006)

what made elmores sound so special is homesicks bass playing

it added that extra that made their music have emotional content and sense of urgency most of the time homesick played bass lines as a rhythem guitar player as lot of blues bands did .brewer phillips played the same role for the hound. both brewer and homesick was great at both roles

[Glendoras]

This is great! It's silly comparing blues artists with each other, they all had influences and influenced others. BTW, I am the greatest Elmore fan sayin' that.

Ce n'est pas deux minutes 48 mais des heures que ce morceau devrait durer...pour le plaisir Pierre NOËL

[atomicguitar123]

As i write this tears are falling .I played with Sick for a few years and was lucky enough to make it on recording.This was truly a fine man .He was like a father to me .I miss him so much

[msaintpc]

Hey my bretheren, Are you down with " Lightnin Slim" ? Look him up. He was a bad mutha......

[billyshitcheese]

stunning!

[msaintpc]

Billy, I agree with you. It's good to see someone not attempting to imitate Clapton or Robert Johnson.

[savvakissss]

I wish I could know more about those blues legends... You can find almost nothing in this small country.. What a performance

[jt123egypte]

Elmore James... you were a true legend.Forgive us all those insulting amateurs that wanted to copy you. You were the best!!!!

[jt123egypte]

But it is great to hear this sound again...Elmo lives o ne by this music!

[mi55coo]

He was a great bluesman. I got a few records. Also made som great recordings with Snooky Pryor. He has his own style. Should not be compared to Elmore I think.

[doctormoondog]

I used to drink with him in Nashville at the Gold Rush, then help him across the street and watch him "tear it up" at the Grapevine Cafe. he was quite a character.

[jt123egypte]

he is a copy of his famous relativ Elmore! Elmo is ten times better.

[Bluesboy89]

You don't know what you're talking about

[TheBrowndawg]

i love elmore (definately in my top five) but i wouldnt be so harsh. this shit is groovy

[CrossBonesAlex]

Blues From The South Side - Maybe the best blues album I have ever heard - It is so unique, so blue and so groovy - every track is great - Homesick James is pure blues

[ThomasDeLello]

Yes... That's a great album and it's not easy to find. I have three albums of his from the late 60's and 70's and they are the ones I value most in my collection of over 425 vinyl disks.
