[travellingidiot]

This is so so so so so good! Anyone know who this guy is? 

[skaterocker666]

this sounds awesome!!! who needs six strings, a bass player and a lot of money to play awesome music. People are too black and white these days.

[DannyDoomPink]

this is awesome

[RastaMastaKonTiki]

more people should be dancing to this. We are truly blessed to still have musicians this awesome around these days.

[MrDumia]

WOW, very good job!!!

[guitardude522]

as jack white said "who says u need to buy a guitar"

[tehcurbster]

this is all you need to play the blues....

[splitenzfreak1980]

So inspired and inspiring! Minimalist sounds FTW.

[trafficjam10]

you know you're hearing a real blues man when he can get this much music out of just one string.

[JohnnyLowebow]

It's A Lowebow Shorty like the one Luther Dickenson uses.

[bigsamable1]

Mean sound, music stripped back to it's bare minimum and sounds great.

[bemuzic]

whoa!!!!....watched this just before going to bed..don't think I'll be able to sleep now!!

[inesserpon]

This guy is sick. My friend and I made a diddley bow and called it the Diddley Badass Do. They are such great unstruments.

[bgruber12]

im making one like tommarow

[AmpdResonator]

That was awesome

[ministate]

absolutely great playing.

[AllPro777]

I tell you, the Diddley Bow is a soul instrument man. It just hits you deep for some reason.

[faunoram]

like jack white sez in the trailer of the movie - it might get loud

"you dont even need a guitar " if you want to play the blues

the reverend is just a superb artist

thanks for this video

[DrMotorDude]

@xjeepmanx If you have not already found it - look up 'KM Williams and the Amazing Train Wreck.'

[fsherrill]

Mr. Williams,

You and Mr. Jackson are amazing. Thank you for sharing your music. I would like to mak a didley bow like yours. Do you have any suggestions.

[SatchDaddyG]

Man... amazing how you pulled such a great sound out of that. Great slide work! What cracks me up though, is here you are playing a diddley bow and looking a lot like a young Bo Diddley. God bless you and keep you rollin!

This is Me, KM Williams and my partner Washboard Jackson busking on Cherry st during the 2008 Arkansas Blues and Heritage festival on Saturday,October 11th; Bobby Rush's people loaned us their spot on the Street for a few hours,Thank you Very much guys. A quote from the Arkansas Times about this video "A guy playing an electrified diddley bow, a simple instrument comprised of a stick, a cigar box and two strings from which he ripped a blues funk, drew a crowd of dozens."

[Gepanao]

I must listened o this video at least a dozen times now really like it. I don't know much about amps and sound effects but what does the diddley bow player do to change the sound of it. Really awsome sound, I'm 62 and really like the sound and the beat.

[Gepanao]

Man I really like this as I am interested in the diddley bow. Is there any nore of this guy playing the diddley bow. Just fantasic.
