Mississippi Delta Blues

[dimdimich]

That's cool, man. Especially wah-wah in a blues :)

I'd like to pay a pound every time if such guys play in our ukrainian subway.

[vsvsvs111]

the asian guy is feelin' it

[u3all81]

Nice!! love it...

[xxmerserxx1011]

does this guy play near the number 6 train at grand central?? if so could you tell me where i can buy their CD? thank you :)

[DrTijn]

you've got some serieus drum player down there...

very awesome!

[Platano0587]

A blues song about crack?... I've heard it all lol They laid that shit down dirty though

[davidoffon]

It is the best thing I ever heard by a man telling me just as his word would flow

An' everybody then just got to know how happy you can be without going anywhere

an' all for free!!

[davidoffon]

@davidoffon Except maybe a dollar an' a bit of your time!!

[OnAvalonBass]

And regarding that music in the background.... that's the music store next door. Those are the people without enought respect to turn down their blaring, non-stop marketing trash while the performers are trying to put on a real show.

That's all I got to say about that.

[OnAvalonBass]

I have the pleasure of stopping to watch this man's performance on my way home some days. And I do drop some of my dinero in the hat. How can I not?

This is one of the marvels of NYC. Where else can you find a performance like this in a subway tunnel? And to those who don't think it's right? Well, where else you gonna need to hear some good blues? I go home with the weight of the world and this man takes it right off my shoulders. Nothing wrong with that.

[goobinhymer]

God that fucking spanish bull shit music in the beginning would piss me off

[Korg8000]

Damn, i saw that guy when i was on a trip to New York. Searched him up later, turnes out he has quite a history!

[kudlow39]

Love floyd,,,,sing it man...

[SuperPais]

The kids are very lucky, metting one of the real guys, in a concert.

[nihongo94]

The drummer is good.

[udongo106]

[bookersguitar]

[wordscontrolminds]

this guy would brighten up the BLUEST of days.......... on ANY tube station!

[faunoram]

he rocks !

[TheGibbySG]

I adore this man.

[luvthatzeppelin]

This is more like NY Blues...

[interstategar]

The NY Port Authority should give some of the bridge toll money I'm paying to this band . Atleast i'd be getting my moneys worth.

[harmonkeyfokker]

That was fun to watch, thanks.

[MrMattmccall]

ahahah "I am five years older than dirt!"

[cheaxel]

i would watch those guys from start till they have to go home

[maximvint]

Damn! I want their CD now !)

[bigwillhenk]

i love floyd

[bennyb2992]

thumbs up if you dig the Asian rhythm section

[theodofustwinsword]

Ah ha ha I love that old guy! Anyone else find it funny how blues can make you happy?

[csummersproductions]

@theodofustwinsword "Blues aint about feelin bad, blues about how it makes a man feel and the expressive sounds coming from the depths of the soul" That's what I was told.

[DiattonBlues]

The Video has to do with Floyd Lee, John Lee Hooker's cousin! He is born in Mississippi on 1933 !!! He has been playing the Blues all his life in many places of the world, such as Russia, Japan and Korea, even in the streets and subways (as it is now in New York)...

[gilgoful]

[KingOfWhiteTrash1]

[bluesartist01]

[dirtyboy601]

@bluesartist01 build yourself a 3 string cigar box guitar. thats what i dids and now im chasing the blues away. there are many vids on youtebe showing just how easy it is

[JaredMorales1992]

Why is someone with this much talent just playing in a subway?

[samuelmichaud]

@JaredMorales1992 maybe he actually don't mind it.

Eccentricity.

From what I hear this guy's been all over, the world.

Related to John Lee Hooker. Says a guy, up there in the comments.

[semisisoli]

[jimmythechimp1]

[headstock48]
