Robert Cray and Shemekia Copeland - I Pity The Fool - Bobby "Blue" Bland

[750ball]

everyboddy go check out "Lightning in a Bottle" for this and some other amazing performers

[ThePodarek]

I Love it! Thanks for sharing!

[unpolitical]

I apologized..Your absolutely right...You don't get the Fiiiine cuisine that is Shemekia on fast food radio.

[Niller1955]

This simply blows me away. So much power in those two. Great!!!

[unpolitical]

It's damn shame that an American institution like the Blues doesn't get the same media recognition and deep appreciation it truly deserves.. This is one of the best duets that most people don't have the pleasure of knowing about..

[MrBluesrules]

@unpolitical

Well, asking for good music on the corporate airwave is like asking for fine cuisine at a fast food restaurant.

[unpolitical]

@MrBluesrules

Don't completely knock fast food. Sometimes you get some good some stuff. But I understand what you are saying. The dumbing down of Americans extends itself to art and cultural too.. Especially art and cultural it seems. Look at what passes as music now days. We have more entertainers a fewer artists now. What's the difference? Artists are about the craft while entertainers are about mass appeal.

[MrBluesrules]

@unpolitical

But you don't get any Shemekia on fast food radio. And I like fine cuisine.

[rkcado]

Gives me chills up and down my spine. Luv her!!!

Due eccezionali Artisti

[gondengem]

Robert Cray has been one of my favorite blues singer for a long time. I now have a new favorite. R.C. and Shemekia. Keep on singin!

[Gleijater]

They both sing veryyy!

I loved them!

Show the best, beautiful voices ...

[sajater]

I love this duet so damn much, that is my most important part of the DVD, together with B. B. King apresentation. Shemekia sings A LOT and Robert Cray is my idol!!! Perfect!!! Love the blues!!!

[AllBobsAllTheTime]

Great cover but would have rather heard Robert sing this solo.

[Jamatucci1000]

Sorry wrong date, it's the 19th.

[Jamatucci1000]

These two r playing at the Clay Center In Charleston,WV on Sat. Feb,18 8:00 PM. Google Mountain Stage. Last my wife and I saw Trombone Shorty, Ani DeFranco,Chuck Prophet, Eric McEwan and Andy something(forget last name), but he plays one hell of a classical acoustic guitar. All for the ridiculous price of 17.50, I know it's crazy!!!!

@Jamatucci1000

*cries*

I am soooo jealous. I'd love to see them all. Y'all have a good time for me!

*cries some more*

[tommy2chips]

[trunner1953]

Love this selection, great performance by both artists. Dynamics are very good, could listen to complete concert with these two. Band does a great job also.

@rosesredvioletsblue I loved it, Roses! Thank you, sweetheart for sharing this outstanding song with me, darling! xoxoxo

[rosesredvioletsblue]

fantastic performance.

[leffers2d]

My first blues album was "Showdown!" with Cray, Albert Collins & Johnny Copeland. Johnys gone now, but what a legacy he left us! This lady is the real deal, so much better than today's manufactured pop stars. So good to hear these two together!

[alicebryson]

This was an awesome performance. It gave me chill bumps. The Blues will never die.

[3FMC3]

Holy hell this man is gifted.

un grand avec une grande chanteuse ( son papa était une fine gachètte de la six cordes )

[senator9870]

This is some hot shtt right here.

Two great blues belters. Shemekia's Dad was one of the best, too.

As for Cray, Jimmie Vaughan said it best about him having both voice and guitar:

"It ain't even fair"

[bluelibra65]

i first saw robert cray i milwaukee,

the year ?

um, 1983, i think,

i met hem and richard cousins,

i told them both they would be stars.

[AllBobsAllTheTime]

Decent cover but can't hold a candle to Bobby Blue or BB.

[msstevie1951]

Great song and yes Robert's still got it!Saw him in concert late 2008 at Horseshoe Casino and he's gotten even Better with age! Sounds better in person than his CD's,not many you can say that about,still The Smokin Gun! Love you Bobby Baby! msstevie xoxoxo

[JOJOGOJOJOGO]
