I am trying to locate anyone that played with LJH in Juarez or El Paso around 1964 or 1965?

I used to see Long Jon at the Lobby when I was in High School (Andress) in the early 60's. Wasted youth? I don't think so!!

yes we are surprised that he did not made it with the biggies. We also saw Boddy Guy in El Paso and this was back in the early 90's. Wondeful music

Great to see and hear this; I had the pleasure of working with "LJ" for 2 years in the early '80's in El Paso, Texas. Talk about an education; LJ IS the teacher!

My name is Bobby Parris. You might not be able
to see me, but I am the drummer in this video. I was on tour with Long John Hunter.

I "grew up" going to the Lobby Bar in Juarez, Mexico to hear Long John. He'd go there after doing his early night gig at the King's X in El Paso where we were too young to go in (21 age limit in Texas). But in Juarez they'd serve anybody. Long John is the blues.

Hey Texas - wow - that was back then, wasn't it. What a fun hole in the wall that place was:) LOVED IT.
I think Long John is so underrated - gosh why he didn't make it huge I don't get.
GREAT musician and singer, great guy :)

@TexasPlayboy49 Went to the Lobby Bar many times... Started going there when I was 12! Times were different then. It was a crazy beautiful time. Long John played and the recent boot camp grads from Ft Bliss would fight. It was great!
