Classic Watson style for sure. He's coppin the intro from Earl Hookers version...yet it's originally a 1940's instrumental from Paul Williams. The thing I admire about Junior is that he never plays the solo the same way twice.
@BluesGeek Truer words have never been spoken. I have eight versions; one was on a cassette that the man himself sent me from Ca to Pa. He thought it was his best to date (2005). I'll have to steal a few images and digitize it.
jesus dude, easy with that better than everyone shit. first he is a student of old music. I'm sure if you asked him about any of his phrases and licks, he would tell you where he stole them from. its been done. I'm a big fan too. but he didn't invent this shit. he just has a great way seaming it all together. I'm sure i speak for junior when i say do a little research. if you look you can find where he stole it all from. 2nd. i didn't know that guitar playing was a sport.?.?.?.?

If you notice too, he times this song out with only a couple of seconds difference from version to version.

Nobody is better than this guy! Nobody!
He plays more shit than anyone else and he plays it with style. Watson is the best!
No other blues guitarist black or white compares to this guy.

Almost looks like the same tour when TeeBee got his H'buck. Completely different take on that night's solo as we've come to expect from Jr.
