Tribute to Buddy Miles by Junior Brown

[kvolkan]

His tone may be in his hands but that is some damn glorious Fender tone! Sounds like its straight into a cranked up Twin!! must be M*F**NG loud!!

[MrDogrose]

Everybody learns from Jr. Lesson # 1: Tone ain't in the guitar or the amp. It's in the hands.

[stikhi]

Magnificent.... I only heard about this guy this morning and he's already one of my favourite players! That vid cinched the deal. Thank you.

[docgima]

I was playing a private party at a biker gang clubhouse in the Stockyards,Ft.Worth,Tx,back in the late 80's I believe it was. At some point all these bikers just went nuts 'cause of somebody who came in. They hustled him to a chair,and were getting him a drink,treating him like royalty. You don't see bikers busting their butts to be nice to many black folk,but this was Buddy Miles.... Before long he was playing my drums. I will never forget the way he turned the place upside down...AWESOME!!

[HomelandConspiracy]

Why is there always a drunk asshole in every crowd that won't shut the fuck up.

[TrafalgarTheMeerkat]

@HomelandConspiracy

That's a really, really good question. IMO, it's like visiting a museum and drawing on the pictures !

[surfaceplaner]

@HomelandConspiracy amen and amen

[hihats]

Buddy Miles playin with Junior...I wish I coulda seen that...what a sight that musta been

[cas111498]

sounds like srv doing elmore

[kcguero]

Junior Brown was SRV and Jimmy Vaughns guitar teacher back in the day!!!

[Vintage1976]

@kcguero How do you figure that, Jimmie Vaughan is one year older than Junior Brown, and more than likely was playing before Junior.

[kcguero]

@Vintage1976 I spoke with Junior, and confirmed that he did teach Jimmy, but not Stevie Ray. Age has nothing to do with it, I learn daily from people youger than me!!!

[Vintage1976]

@kcguero Junior taught him some lap steel, but not guitar, I can assure you that.

[stuporsession]

Albert King lives

[Antarblue]

Junior Brown with the blues and soul!!! Thank you very much Mac!

[bigmikeinca]

The song IS a tribute to Buddy Miles, back when he played and sang with Electric Flag Buddy sang this song...

Play on Junior

[bluegoose555]

I just love Junior Brown..always have.. always will..but what does Albert King have to do with Buddy Miles? I assume they must have played together...maybe a lot? I think more of Hendrix.. Band of Gypsies etc.....and I dont think the Tele really does any justice to Albert King...just sounds too thin (to my ears). Anyway... sorry to hear Buddy has passed away...may he rest in peace.

[billville111]

Albert King's Blues Power inspired.

Gotta love JB.

Too bad some jerks in the crowd can't shut their traps.

[kcguero]

Yeah, there was this drunk couple there that thought they were alone! He was the one you hear trying to sing along!

[jschmidty]

Fuckin' drunks man... Soo annoying. Junior played this tribute at the Iron Horse in Northampton, MA around this time last year, but it seemed more soulful. Live music doesn't come across as well on youtube, but I also think he was able to get into the performance more at the Iron Horse (with the quieter crowd.)

[jschmidty]

Also, I'm seeing him again tonight at the Iron Horse!

[mybadtexas]

@mikeinbako This IS YouTube. People would bash a video of a puppy playing with a squeakie toy.

[sclogse1]

@mikeinbako

THe operating word..."Crowd" Always the untruth.

[blakeybaby63]
