[AlphaXX44]

why is noone throwing money in it?

[BobCheese83]

@AlphaXX44

We all threw money in as soon as he was finished. I have about thirty seconds more of this on my page. This was about 4.5 months after Katrina. He was right in front of Cafe Du Monde. It was pretty emotional. We had just come from the lower Ninth Ward when we came upon him singing this. He got a LOT of money when his song was over. It was quite a moment.

[yenkim2417]

their talent was honned by time thanks for this song it complete my day

[TheChangeisgonnacome]

[lmichelwhite]

This version of this song by Grandpa Elliot gives me goosebumps whenever I listen. What heart & soul he gives us! Keep on keepin' on! Love you Grandpa Elliot!

[monro123456789]

How the hell can 11 ppl press the dislike button. i wish there was more ppl in the world like elliot. he is what we are all about and they dont care about money or cars they just love what they do and want to express and show the world what they can do and what they love.

[mtvguy92]

Most people his age can't still sing that well. Very impressed!

[EdwardK123]

God Bless you Grandpa Elliot,

[DrumCrazemaster]

Lol dude its Grandpa Elliot not just any street performer

[angelyzangelyz]

And why is this guy not famous making the big buck and an album released??

What's wrong with this picture?

Pure Talent and straight from the heart.

He has as much if not more talent that any man out there today.

I hope someone can help him make an album someday.I would most certainly buy it and be honored to met him to thank him for his singing soul out there on the streets of New Orleans.

God Bless you Grandpa Elliot,

[CapoeiraPiper]

Because he doesnt need to...

he's already a nawleans legend, doing what he loves not for the money.

[LeeMckCelt]

Nt everyone wants fame & have albums selling... Hes a true musician

[BlackKittyNiceDog]

This kind of talent is what makes New Orleans a musical landmark!

This man makes you want to cuddle him and then sit at his feet for days and just listen.

[kc768]

This guy's got raw talent! Extremely raw, which is cool.

[Brano1316]

yup you are exactly rite the raw talent makes him who he is

[earthfish75]

[EnDiHjobi]

[nittzzu]

[boodaddy]

Im with you DucatiMo. This is what music is all about. Doing it for the love of playing and making music.

[lPlinl]

[troby1979]

[DucatiMo22]

I'd rather see people like this, than famous, over paid singers anyday.

[m1nghags]

i agree with you!!!

[AutumnTheMagic]

It's a choc to me, I discover this old man in a great clip (Stand by me, with many people around the world you know ?) I love his voice and his jazz !

he looks great ! and generous..

[chrisamari94]

Playing For Change is the video. Grandpa Elliot is fantastic!

[tadsie1]

That man is pure Jazz, born and bred.  Any one asks me what is Jazz I will send them that clip.

[Whitrolf]

Tadsie. Yeah, this guy was great. I thought you were going to send me some of your music on my home email. Get on it dude!

[tadsie1]

I am on it but also getting to grips with Cuebase and this computer. Not my thing but I will persevere........Just for you.

[3XODUS1190]

actually this is more blues than it is jazz.... although by the sound of your message it seems you are not referring to the style of music, if you were, well im pretty positive its blues... jazz is much different

[JMdesHautsDeFrance]

Bravo Grandpa ! Tu es le meilleur !! You're the greatest!!

[LuvIzAhl]

Will look him up when in New Orleans. He's worth the trip, just to be in his presence.

[noobhunter3000]

Grandpa Elliot forever!!

Keep the blues!

[Solipsist9]

I haved lived fairly close to NO and have been numerous times. When I saw his face on here I remember it instantly. So many things to see on the streets of the Big Easy. You can disappear there.

[neir0611]

Esse artista é extremamente maravilhoso. N conhecia...Alguém pode me dizer q ele é um artista profissional ou é mesmo um artista de rua?

[davechill24]

No es profesional, canta en las calles y ya

[bananapiesed]

[hijamia]

[barcino1934]
