I've got a tape of Canned Heat performing live with John Lee Hooker, the vocalist for CH sounds nothing like this, he has a very Bluesy voice, this is terrible :\
Utter class, can you imagine Blind Owl Wilson on The X Factor, yes your thinking what i am thinking. Simon Cowell would not have put him through because he is not a pretty boy, they aint got a fuckin clue. Talent like that should be celebrated for ever and because of YouTube it probably will be. Rant over. thank you.
saw 'em in 74 with j geils ..this WAY - OUT...search YouTube for ...."Whores & Heroin"....& "IBEW drummer" ..&.. "drummer boy falls for YOU Live" < LOL & my dirty blues with lyrics "IBEW drummer CALL IT"
this is the studio version and i am almost 100% sure that is Alan Wilson playing the harp. Bob the Bear is just mucking around...... Alan was one of the top harp players ever all you need to do is listen to "Hooker n Heat" Hooker aid Alan was the best harp player
@drumsticknow Im not an obama lover by any means possible but it was the adverstisement that played before the video started... that's why I said that. I guess you might have had a different Ad i dont know.
Me, I'm going up the country where the water tastes like wine. To all brothers and sisters out there may you all have a Merry Christmas and keep the faith.
Alan Wilson was my mom's cousin. I visited his mother, (I call her Aunt Shirley) up in Virginia in 2003 where I learned about my relation to him. It sucks how could have actually met him had he not died. =\
rip alan wilson who enjoy the 27 club along with jimi hendrix jim morrison brian jones janis joplin kirt cobain amy winehouse robert johnson etc......................
@AuronFtw amy winehouses music its something different than the whole music shit in nowdays!!!dont be critical to good musicians and amy has a great voice believe that!hw is not better than the other musicians as i said but she is somehting really nice for music in nowdays..just hatand about getting high please dont talk about that..she likes to do it ok nothing more..like jimi did..like morrison and like the others..they was star and getting high was a must for them..so show some respect!
@Dbalx WHAT IS MY FUCKING PROBLEM??? WHAT IS MY MOTHERFUCKING PROBLEM? I WILL TELL YOU WHAT MY FUCKING PROBLEM IS!!!! I got your response confused up with a different poster.... you dick.
Evolution is reversing.The pond scum reaction to Canned Heat is staggering.Peace.Love,War.
Maybe dated concepts for you mayfly pixies to take on board,but you are less than what went before.Lets all raise a teary thanks to Max Yasger, and the free concert of Woodstock.Life sure seemed simpler, and the pond scum had'nt worked out how to post a message, of any sort.
i like this music nice and chill to cruise to, i heard it on nfs the run (shit game btw) so i thought i look it up and daaaaamn 1968, didnt think this song was that old haha
I think that Fito del parra is the only surviving member. Henry Vestine died in Paris in the 90's , Bob Hite Died in the 80s. Saw canned heat twice in the 70s. I wish I had a video camera back then. One concert it was Canned heat, Spirit, UFO and can't remeber the rest
@gfnyc1 I'm sorry I don't want to listen to your favorites playlist. So I won't be listening to any Britney Spears or NSYNC. PS I wasn't talking to you dipshit.
oh yeah the reason i came here was because the HEAT are epic and nor did i know that Alan Wilson sang like this tributing the great Skip James so thanks for the education. love it
