Albert King - Blues Power Live 1970 Filmore

[DudleyScardsdale]

Wait, so he's not only playing it upside down without re-stringing it, he's also not even using a pick?!

[calwaite]

@DudleyScardsdale The other Albert (Collins), who I think was the best who ever lived, didn't use a pick either. Have no idea how anyone could do what he (and King) did without a pick, Jesus!

[stratman900]

at the 6:09 mark, albert yells at band for not coming down low enough!!!!!! i love it!!!!!

[KeepOnBluesin]

i wouldn't mind having this song on repeat for the rest of my days, epic playing!!!!

[kernal616]

AWESOME.

[ZVilleneuve]

Son of a bitch played upside down guitar... what a king!

[socalwhtmale999]

cool

[bluesatsunset]

03:33 - Probably the coolest moment in modern blues history.

[lcolby11]

I saw him live a few years before he died, his back up band was so so, he was screaming at the bass player 1/2 the night

[bigbosssauce7]

The 1 dislike has to be a mistake or a joke

[bouleamythe]

Gotta love this man, Thank you for that soulfull guitar playing...WOW

[tbturpentine]

Man oh man, great he is

[sinprelic]

this guy jammed with jimi hendrix and stevie ray vaughan. i think albert might have been the best person to ever be.

[mikegpdx]

@sinprelic for having taught so many others how to do it

[lazarstrimbei]

RIP ALBERT KING !!! GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL EVER !!!

[kjw1993]

1:03 .. i agree albert

[KingRam33]

I know the hippies gave Albert King a lot of props but I just can't help but think that one of thoes hippies were thinking how does this 40 something year old black man play such cut throat blues but at the same time have such a young sound that I can't help but love. Some of these hippies didn't know what hit them, they thought only Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton could have that effect.

[wyclifdotnet]

I love how he rolls off the volume with the knob on the guitar. So old school.

[bosco258]

Albert has some of the best bends of all time! He gets so much emotion out of bending one note!!!

[MrJuanlennon]

The man poured out his soul through a guitar to most others it would be work.

[talkinglens1]

Yeah, we're listenin'!

[daveyben100]

[gmitchellist]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Can not say it enough. Thank You for this.

[KingRam33]

The God Of String Bending, When you hear this man play you don't wonder why Jimi Hendrex & SRV loved him so much. Albert king is a guiter player's GUITER PLAYER, he manhandles Lucy.

[luker4m05]

the "Blues Power" is strong with this one!!

[cavo505]

what a sound on his guitar...

[darc1362]

There's always got to be 1 asshole in the crowd.

[yasshak]

the bluespower got me in Istanbul...!

[trocheelias]

Everybody unerstand the blues, hallelujah! from Paraguay

[KingRam33]

Albert King Is the reason why people pick up a Gibson Flying V, rather they wanna admit it or not. All hail The Three Kings Of Blues, Albert, B.B, & Freddie!

[linybeachgrl]

Bravo, thank you for that

[TheBlackycat]

Great video. Albert is way up on my "if I could go back in time and see...." list. Thanks for posting this.

[ecuador001]

[Newyorkischaos]

Can you dig it? Hell Yeah!!!! This is Raw as shit...The real king right here, Elvis can fuck off, lol....

[Stefan1703]

You're from Singapore... Just realized, again, how much power the music has. One of the few universal languages that can get people together.

[pooiseng]

@Stefan1703 like what albert said, everybody understand the blues! Bluespower!!!!!!!!!!!!

[imageniusfx]

@pooiseng Boy, you said it! I'm from Egypt, and I was turned on to the Blues when I heard Stevie Ray Vaughan playing Texas Flood for the first time on the "100 greatest guitar solos of all time" collection! I went home, Picked up my guitar, and spent the next 12 months trying to do the texas shuffle, and have been hooked ever since!

[follonic100]

demasièe...

[bikerdave1967]

Thanks Pooiseng. A fantastic video of the legend. An incredible talent who is sadly missed,

[cibacityblues]

this is so important and amazing to have this in a good quality document, I have worn out this album twice. and I do not intend to stop now. The finest.

[dboneg]

"Welcome to the Fillmore East"

Featuring: Elvin Bishop, The Flock, Albert King, and Sha Na Na.

I thought Jon "Bowzer" Bauman was spliced in this video at 8:46.

Sha Na Na was one of the bands playing that night. Wow!

[jcbluefunk]

King Albert at his finest, sweatin' the blues! RIP Albert.

[Phryg]

That's priceless! An even higher-quality version than before; thanks so much! The master was feeling it that night!

[drphreddie]

AWEsome...thanks, mate

"The Kings"....Albert King, B.B King, Freddie King, and Earl King. My favorite Albert.
