Jimmy Thackery and the Drivers - Who Knows - Live

[Kaos033]

Guess there are only 8k plus out of 300 million that get it! That is REALLY sad! How can blues loving folks not know how good Thackery is?!

I grew up with Jimmy Thackery as part of the Nighthawks in DC in the mid 70's of which he spent 14 years playing with. I remember them in 76 when I was very youing. An amazing player.

@janedoe1024 Me too... I lived in Rockville - did New years with them one year at the Bayou in Gtown. Is Mark Wenner still alive and well?

@prayfortruejustice

OH Yeah he's still in there, still jammin'...!! Just for old memories sake, I remember seeing the Nighthawks at the old Cellar Door in GTown back about the late 70's like '78 '79 and '80. Pretty young then, I was.(Does anyone remember the old Cellar Door?)Try their website. Also don't miss Santa Jam at State Theatre--Mark Wenner - Falls Church, VA 12/23/2010 (My home town). Peace out my friend. Rock on.

Saw Derek Trucks and Joe Bonamassa do this--then 2 weeks later saw Jimmy do the same song...Both were equally brilliant!!!

saw this guy in Wisconsin this last summer-AMAZING! one of the the best I've ever seen.I asked him about this song and HE said it was written by Buddy Miles.

This is the Hendrix song called "Who Knows" from the Band of Gypsys days.
