John W. Windham, blues street musician San Francisco

[thedisposablesmusic]

This is awesome...i love that the guitar is slightly out of tune but he doesn't care...that's the fucking blues right there.

[oscarglennon]

[ibrake4sasquatch]

I wish those douche canoes in the background would shut it! I wanna hear what this guy is singing about!

[DarkSlashITA]

yeah this is the essence of the blues!

ciao from italy!!

[MkochaT]

@DarkSlashITA , His life was real blues, you can type and search John W. Windham to see him play more, all recorded later the same day. I was lucky I had camera that day. The lady you hear in the background on all recordings was his cousin Gina. Two years later she died from grief (heart attack) the next day after she found out that John was robbed, shot and killed in Oakland. She loved him so much.

@DarkSlashITA true talent here,

[motorhead1964]

that man is drunk off his ass....lol

[MkochaT]

@motorhead1964, well he is NOT driving, he is only playing guitar and singing, still better than many sober men, so I would not hold it against him for having some beer. You may not understand what the blues is.

[motorhead1964]

@MkochaT dont be so defensive..i understand blues.. love blues which actually brought me to this video..when did i say he was driving or didnt have talent...dont worry so much about other peoples opinions or statements, i wasnt dis'n this man once so ever..nor do I like having to defend any of my comments..so piss off

[MkochaT]

@motorhead1964 , Check this video "Mississippi Delta blues John Willie Windham in San Francisco" and tell me what you think. He was my friend, he let me play his guitar. He was robbed and killed in West Oakland on June 27 2007. His cousin Gina died the very next day from deep distress when she learned about John's death. Her great bluesy voice you can briefly hear on the videos. Both were great people. Click "show more" to know more about the man. There are 5 videos here to remember John.

@MultiGreenstar Constructive criticism at its best... If you think this sucks you don't know shit about blues. So please save it for yourself.
