[usfenderfsdlx]

hey man, don't know if you respond to comments, but what is the make of the dobro? also, know of any makes that are especially good for plugging into the front of a blackface super reverb or deluxe?

[MrGeorgio123]

Man, this is great! I was wondering what one of those dobro guitars sounded like and I found this video. I did not expect anything this mind-blowing!

[joylightclub]

This is my top favourite...brings a mile every time I watch. just fab.

Oliver, (Jesse) Thanks for this video. I have watched it about 50 times... maybe more? Your singing and slid playing is incredible. I have watched all of your video uploads, and this is my FAVORITE.

Please have a listen to some of mine if you will. Comments and "THUMBS UP" are always appreciated.

Cheers,

Paul

[CJLinSD]

Fun vid to listen to. You got it all, including an authentic voice that stays on tune throughout.

[djbladez1313]

can anybody tell me what kind of resonator hes using? or is it an actual dobro?

[NevilleDevil1]

@djbladez1313

It's a Harley Benton I believe. It's mentioned in one of the other vids.

[Elsoddo]

It's open A everyone! It took me a while to find out but he's in OPEN A TUNING!

[letterli]

you have a tab of the chords (beginning) - or another closer video?

Like the playing!!

[BryanWarhall47]

Good jam bro! You can check out my approach to Crossroads with a Bryan Warhall search.

[popa62]

I like so much this man !!!!! peace

[lothre]

62 people took a wrong turn at Albuquerque on the way to the crossroad

[lumberjak91]

Hello, thanks from France. I'm a new "old timer" in the resonator world and... you are the first player than i can see to use a pick and not those fingers (right hand). That's really interesting for me.

[RAGARAVER]

man im tellin you i tear up, everytime i hear this, you dont even know...amazing

[mastersoundsproject]

Isn't that Chris Cornell?

[movietriviaman]

I heard a man named Eric Clapton tried to sing and play like this guy

[srlbwest]

Holey shit I love it GRAT JOB MAN!!!!

[c7i6abc]

Very good in deed! : -)

[karnicericimo]

That is an amaizing tone!!!!

Beautiful guitar!

[healthyhogs]

covered this song beautifully... not to knock Clappton... robert johnsons original recording is still the bees knees... nothin beats the swag of the delta blues

[AJTbayBE]

Awesome!!!

and LOL!!

was gonna a comment about playin the blues and pussy, but scrolled down and saw busman6183 beat me 2 it.

[MGdirector]

awesome! 

[1JordanRose]

Hey could you put the lyrics on here i want to learn it thank you

[tadde94]

the best version of Crossroad ever palyed!

[RAGARAVER]

nothing, nothing like jammin slide guitar...you sold your soul didn't you?

[lycanking1231]

I just added this to my favorites

[johndempsy]

Dobro is God's instrument. Yep. Why do you think the Devil is so interested in it? It moves souls. That's why....

[robailey77]

That is TALENT!!!!! Play some more!

[MrFahqalot]

Is that a copper pipe slide? Good stuff bro, love to jam on the back porch with a bottle of maker's with ya.

[mandkg334]

Damn good, thought it was great!!! My daughter likes the cat, I would like to know what tunning your in!!

[BigfootPreston]

Love it! This dude plays that dobro so good! Congratulations! What kindda guitar is that? What brand? A good old National or some recent replica like a Johnson 998? i am planning on buying the Johnson one as ain't got the money for the rela thing. Any hints guys? Are these Johsnon dobros any good? I played one a long time ago in a shop and sounded pretty decent for a chinese guitar. All suggestions welcome!

[FriedEggsWithChips]

Cool sound. :) Nice dobro too.

[slonopochron3000]

this is so good.

[MrZeus169]

my absolute favorite....damn.......

[lightlyone]

Well done, blues man! Seen a lotta blues music, and this is it!

[cowboymike0307]

what tuning are you in?

[uf1853]

Awesome!

[guitarguyger]

Well played sir!

[flyinsossers]

No, I think your the real blues cat brother. awesome

[luapsel77]

Dude- you remind me of a cross between Clapton/Ry Cooder and a little Stevie ray thrown in for good measure...I second the guy who said, "Why isn't this guy in a studio? You have shown what many Americans forget. That THIS music is our OWN. It's American, genuine, from the heart. It has the spirit of the pioneers, the strife, and , of those early Black. THEY didn't need crack to finance their music. It came from their SOUL...And you made your OWN, ORIGINAL VERSION...Righteous, brother. Amen.

[trentger1]

@luapsel77 American music, played by Jesse, a genuinely German man. Haha.

[zjowdown]

I love it! This guy is great!

[giganught]

great job, guitar brand/make? plz???

[dagar42]

@giganught: Looks like a National Steel, tri-cone resonator

[dagar42]

@giganught : looks like a National Steel tri-cone resonator

[GibsonFlow12387]

[NiMareQ]

What kind of Dobro do you have? The one I own has rather lifted strings, so I am unable to play like this :/

[mcbass999]

Awesome rendition of Crossroads! You also should post this on Share My Guitar!

[Wierdoinc]

[panoramichearts]

[Flatlandpower]

One of my favorite cover... Amazing man !!!

[r4aul]

[bjkaboom]

I CAN'T FOR THE LIFE OF ME UNDERSTAND HOW That GUY taylor swift..S

Semper Fi!

Bernie

Godspeed!!

[Bombuhr]

completely blow away! Pure awesomeness!

[sawtine]

60 dislikes as of 8/6/2011.. who the F are these people? can someone please explain to me what is not to like about this flawless player? Great skill, great voice, edgy....it's all there. There's not a thing to be improved upon.

[chooch46]

Robert Johnson would be proud. Nice.

[beeroosterm]

@chooch46 I'm quite certain you cannot vouch for Robert Johnson, especially if you listen to his version of the song. He sounds like a space alien compared to this well-syncopated version. I'm always amazed at Cream's rendition of CB; how they got there from Johnson's original is beyond me - but I'm glad they did it.

[Daazbee]

This is so awesome

[dago00]

awesome!

[TheBenjamin879]

sounds like like clapton plays like curtis lowe

[guitarjayplays]

WOW! That was great man. I just made a video playing the same song, but its not as accurate as your version. Good job!

Ps. you sound a lot like clapton ( I like it )

[busman6183]

as you can see the blues always attracts the pussy

[snidelywhiplash]

@busman6183 Well played, sir.

[94GuitarLord]

@busman6183 Damn straight

[TheBasenjiman]

What is the tuning on this?

[gotmilk606]

@TheBasenjiman When he strums open at the start you can hear he is in Open A tuning.

[pxm1778]

Yes, yes, yes!

[CMFrontera1]

You're amazing....listened to it a dozen times. Wow.

[JesusMakeUpMyDyinBed]

You make that look so fun man. I need to go buy a guitar

[furiousdesigns]

I swear this shit gives me a hard on...

[Perce64]

Pretty Good !

[guiter001]

awwwwsome man what key are you playing in .great if you can do a guitar lesson on this.sounds great mate.

[LaSmorfiaLiga]

wooo ^^

[mollers92]

I'd like to know why this guy's playing at home and not in a studio.

[Dime067]

Jesus man, your voice is fuckin incredible and your playing compliments it perfectly. You're a real bluesman

[llFeathersll]

Tab ? Please ?

[trentger1]

@llFeathersll I'm afraid you won't be able to find a tab for this one, my friend. He learned to play it by improvising by ear, and you'll have to do the same. It's tough, it takes a long time, but learning something by ear it the way to go.

[slideboy6]

OK when he picks up the guitar the first open stum is "A" so there's the tuning

[slideboy6]

can you tell me is that standard tuning or something else?

[Deltablues1001]

Nothing to say execpt this is perhaps my favourite ever versin of this song!

[marcosbrunoquiroga1]

yeahhh! man, good job! with your permission I'll play your version here in Argentina, you're a great guitarist, greetings and thanks for sharing

[jojojosmart]

sweeeeeeeeeeeet

[cafm1973]

[iPhillly]

Great picking and everything but this guy is trying so fucking hard to be a bluesman it hurts.

lose the hat and that cat is NOT a real blues cat. there isnt even such a thing as a blues cat.

[ButtsexV2]

probably the most amazing male speaking voice I've ever heard, and one of the best singing voices I've heard in a long time. Amazing guitar playing skills to go with it

[Vorobey93]

The best crossroad blues I've ever heard!

[miraclarke1]
