Man thanks for posting this. I was onstage at ann Arbor when this was recorded & the People seemed to dig what The fellows wereplaying. Bluesman Doctor Ross was even dancin' around at one point.
The great Hound Dog Taylor story I heard was when he was sitting in with The Bob Reidy Blues Band. They were a local white band that backed up a lot of the blues players around Chicago.. Hound dog plugged into the guitar player's Twin Reverb and hit a few licks whils one warming up. He then told his "valet" to go get his amp from the car 'cause "this one don't bite". The valet returned with a Twin that had shredded speaker cones. He was then able to get "his" sound...
so strong, remove glasses, wipe misty eyes, yup Chicago. So our kids want to find their souls, seems like a great place to start. Hit replay a few times, well give your soul wings, give them a chance, they will grow.
Just thought I'd point out that when we went in to the studios to record Hound Dog (you sure didn't produce him) that he didn't have any names for any of his instrumentals. Bruce Iglauer & myself just came up with the names like "Taylor's Rock" Hound Dog sure slipped one in on us cause his "55th Street Boogie" was actually the old jazz standard "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid"
Nobody can do "Hound Dog".. Only Hound Dog could do Hound Dog.
This is his music done his way. And he knew that too..made him so happy he laid his 'happy" on to us. When i die n go to heaven? I'm gonna look him up.
i was turned on to this 30 years ago , im nearly fifty now , and i still crank my ibanez and slide and play this ... Fuck the neaighbours !!! long live the hound !
Check out "Well Alright". It's a compilation of live recordings of Phillips, with some Hound Dog and the HouseRockers thrown in. It's one of my desert island albums. Just straight brutal boogie.
Absolute PUNK-BLUES, man!! Long live the Hound! Wish I'd been born sooner to have been able to see him live.... if that doesn't get ya in a houserockin' mood, NUTHIN' WILL!! YOUNG PEOPLE!! Take note!! Thee best, man...!
I'm surprised he didn't rise up into the air towards the end of that little number. Raw, screeching, beautiful. Watch out those electric guitars might bite ya. Wow
...Thank YA Hound DOG...eva time I play this vid I am sooo Happy...IF I am in a funk... I just listen to DA HOUND... and Im good to GO...He is just soo Happykool it will pull you UP on out of the dumps, Yeaa yeaa, BOYEE
my mom turned me on too hound dog when i got into a george thorogood groove...about 20 years ago...never saw the hound dog on video ...this better then i ever imagined,fricking awesome!!!!
Old Dog alias Howlin n Hound Dog Taylor oh yes bring it ON love it Brewer Phillips Ted Harvey Mean ASS Old Skool Boogie YOOOOO RIP Hound Dog you are till with us My Man
