Sonny Landreth with Arlen Roth

[TheAxeman64]

I got to see Sonny in Bayshore, LI, this year. Awesome player. Great show.

[JeffKnight]

Just awesome.

[1955jackie]

Arlen took Sonny to school ...

[organichik]

@1955jackie Did you see Sonny @ 3:52 to 4:08? I think they are both awesome.

[enginerelay]

Absolutely magic. Thanks for posting this, I'd love to see either of these fellas play.

[rudysan24]

omg that dumble sounds amazing! I believe that's a Steel String Singer. Could be wrong.

Can I have one?

[GeneVRocks]

The house is rockin!!

[buskerbuoy]

I've still got Arlen's 1975 book on slide - an absolute classic.

[thehubmn]

i dont get it, why haven't i heard of these guys before?!

[birdiejoehoaks]

because they're awesome

[Generalterz]

for everything there is a first time :)

[popoaggie]

Arlen can make his Tele sound like an old Chicago Harmonica. That's what early bottleneck blues players were trying to emulate years ago.

[bulbheadmyass]

Aweome vid! Thanks for posting.

[MadameRosco1]

nice place. good food. sonny plays there about once a year. you can sit in the bar and see the band through some windows and not have your hearing blown out.

If Clapton is God (?) what then is Arlen Roth?

Clapton is a pentatonic noodler all day long, Roth is much more.

[ekpil]

Opinions are like ... everyone's got one. Clapton was called god in '67.A title that appauled him.He's a blues player . His first 30 years were his best. When you get to be as good as any of these guys ,it's not who's better it's just a matter of style. R

[doviejames]

yes! i'm not crazy or deaf after all!!!

[TheHomingByrd]

since when is the amount of music theory a guitarist knows a measure of his skill?

[Lafforte]

Look out now! Two tone meisters who can get around but play the righteous stuff! Lord, that's good. So good! Listen to how sparse they keep it so that when they decide to make a statement it counts. Masters. Wee bit of a challenge from Arlen, answered ever so sweetly by the righteous Sonny.

[plunka5]

JUST DAMN..........
