@lovechild89507 Is it? Somewhere I heard it was Little Johnny Jones on piano, not Ike Turner. (?) Whoever it is, he does a fine job. Steals the show IMO.
It's a pity, but the vast majority prefers to listen to modern talentless pop-music instead of such a great talents like Elmore James. When I compare number of views of this song and similar ones with the number of views of say satanic clips by Lady GaGa I start to feel despair
@TACarhart ,,thats a good description TACarhart,nobody can do it as good as elmore !!,he owns this song and just about every song hes sang,i just love that twangy guitar when he says'''''when thangs go wrong'''',,,hey!!!! now thats some blues for ur ass!!!!
Come on Now....Elmore was a god. But Hendrix was the pinnacle of Dealta, Chicago, Piedmont, Dallas, jump, you name ir - BLUES. Hendrix his the champion of a 50 year era. He was great because of greats like Elmore. But no-one has touched him since.
How did a great song turn into a big dick contest ? Stop thinking in "Black and White" and you might get somewhere in life or at least enjoy it more !

He led the team that developed the ISA bus, and he led the design team responsible for creating the first[citation needed] one-gigahertz computer processor chip.He holds three of IBM's original nine PC patents. In August 2011, writing in his blog, Dean stated that he now uses a tablet computer instead of a PC. [2][3]

Dr. Philip Emeagwali, who has been called the "Bill Gates of Africa," was born in Nigeria in 1954. In 1989, emulating the bees' honeycomb construction, Emeagwali used 65,000 processors to invent the world's fastest computer, which performs computations at 3.1 billion calculations per second.
Philip Emeagwali stirs up diverse emotions in Nigerians, Africans, and black people around the world. His claim of being a father of the Internet, of having invented the Connection Machine, of possessing 41patented inventions, of winning “the Nobel Prize of Computing” and of being a “doctor” and/or “professor” have been conclusively debunked with widely documented evidence.
@BlacknesUnforgivable The fastest performance of a computer application in 1989 was 6 billion floating point operations per second (6 Gflops), achieved by a team from Mobil and Thinking Machines Corp. on a 64,000-processor "Connection Machine" invented by Danny Hillis. That was almost double the 3.1 Gflops of Emeagwali's computation. Computing's Nobel Prize equivalent is the Turing Award, which Emeagwali has never won.
@BlacknesUnforgivable Debunking the many myths of Mr. Emeagwali’s “achievements” is one the easiest things to do on earth if you have a computer with Internet access. Let us start with his claim of possessing 41 (32 by some accounts on some hero-worshipping black websites) patents for various inventions. A simple search at the website of the US Patent and Trade Mark Office reveals that Mr. Emeagwali has only one registered patent, for Emeagwali . com, his website.
@BlacknesUnforgivable He has no other patent listed against his name. It is the same patent that most owners of independent websites apply for to legally protect their proprietary rights over the website and its contents. We can state conclusively then that Mr. Emeagwali has no patented invention of any kind, contrary to his and his supporters’ claim.
@BlacknesUnforgivable No, I mean the piano, saxophone, double bass, bass guitar, electric guitar.... LMFAO
It must cut you so deeply, knowing that without the white devil inventing all these instruments, Jazz (and virtually all the music you listen to) wouldn't exist. Hahahahahahaha
In the end , who cares where the instruments supposedly originated? It was the blacks who took them,mastered them,and created just about every genre of american music.
Same things witht he blacks throughout latin america , rofl
I love blues and have listened to blues all my live, including uncountable live blues performances, but my fall back guy is always Elmore James. He is the classic.
To Benedict05: Black "dudes" have been creating all the music in the U.S. People like you attacked blues when it came out, jazz when it came out, doo-wop when it came out, rock n roll when it came out, soul music when it came out, funk when it came out, and now rap.
@willetlineroad god finally someone else who thinks like me. i'm not a huge rap fan but i just hate it when people hate on it just cause its not what they like. it causes a shit cycle of hate.
@benedicto605 your a piece of shit because if it wasn't for alot of black music man of the white artist would not have a career...rock, rap, hip hop, jazz and blues ..all come from the blacks...grow up
@skyiscrying53 we'd best thank the white man for inventing the guitar, electric guitar, double bass, bass guitar, piano, violin, saxophone, trumpet etc etc
@BlacknesUnforgivable Why'd you think they call it the 'Spanish' guitar? You're talking about some other stringed instrument. The GUITAR is European. Every instrument I listed has its origins in Europe. Your attempt at trying to re-write history was typical of anti-white racists. I do enjoy laughing at you people. :-)
@BlacknesUnforgivable As I said, you're not talking about the guitar. You're talking about another string instrument. Why do you think the classical guitar is also called the SPANISH guitar? Musicians are not using this old middle-eastern instrument you keep mentioning. They're using the SPANISH guitar which comes from SPAIN (a EUROPEAN country).
@noticityrealicity I think you are the anti-black racists. Your kind come on old blues/jazz videos like this and interject the MYTH of these instruments being European in origin , when presented with the fact that these genre's of music are part of the Afro American tradition
You haven't come with any facts. You're just churning out the same old afro-centric nonsense. Why do you think the SAXophone is called the SAXophone? Because it was invented by Adolphe SAX (a Belgian). Would you like to deny who invented the Piano, too? Go ahead. I DARE you. Jaja... :-D
Would you also like to deal with the fact that Jazz wouldn't be what it is without its Classical music influence? No, of course you don't. Jaja... :-D
@noticityrealicity lmao @ "Afrocentric nonsense". Please tell me what ive said thus far that would be considered "Afrocentric"? You are grasping for straws right now
I didnt say anything about the Sax dummy , i was talking about the guitar and some of the other instruments you named.And are you inferring that classical music has no non european influences as well? ;)
@BlacknesUnforgivable You said what I'm saying is "euro centric" and "white washed", when I'm simply just stating facts. If I'm "euro centric", then you're Afro-centric. You're saying the exact same things Afro-centrics say.
The guitar comes from Spain. Fact.
Individual composers may have non-European influences, but as a genre of music, a non-European influence is virtually non-existent.
I didn't say whites invented Jazz, although they have had a HUGE influence on it. It's still shit though.
@noticityrealicity The guitar comes from the middle east - FACT."The term is used to refer to a number of related instruments that were developed and used across Europe beginning in the 12th century and, later, in the Americas.[2] These instruments are descended from ones that existed in ancient central Asia and India."
@BlacknesUnforgivable That proves me right you MORON. lol... I said EXACTLY what you've quoted. You were referring to another stringed instrument. Modern-day musicians aren't using these stringed-instruments that existed in India & central Asia, are they? They're using the GUITAR, which comes from SPAIN. LOL
I have to laugh though... you think India & central Asia are the Middle-East. LMAO
@noticityrealicity I said the guitar's earliest orgins lie elsewhere than Europe and it turns out i was right. Nobody in particular can take full credit for the guitar,period. Also , west african ethnic groups wernt novice's to string instruments.The banjo is west african which comes from the akonting.
Lets not forget the muslim influence that persisted over centuries on spanish culture LMAO
@BlacknesUnforgivable No, you said the guitar comes from the middle-east, dopey. You're talking about another stringed instrument. The guitar comes from Spain. Now you're trying to say Muslims invented it... Hahahaha... I'm still laughing at how you think India & central Asia are in the middle-east. LMFAO
Take the piano, saxophone, double bass, electric guitar, bass guitar away from Jazz... what is there? This isn't rhetorical... I actually want you to answer. lol
@BlacknesUnforgivable (cont)... "He also influenced many important figures in Jazz, most notably George Gershwin, Bill Evans, George Shearing, Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Antônio Carlos Jobim, Herbie Hancock and Jimmy Giuffre."
LMAO... you are destroyed, once again...
I'll be waiting for you to list all these pieces from the composers you mentioned which you claim were influenced by Jazz. :-)

@qushrad65 "While northern Europe was still emerging from barbaric hoards dressed in animal skins, the Islamic world surrounding the Mediterranean was developing different fabrics of cotton, wool and silk; cultivating new crops such as eggplant, peppers and asparagus; and composing music with a delicacy made possible by the evolution of the lute into the guitar that we know today."
@BlacknesUnforgivable It's funny, you mentioned Claude Debussy in regards to what you claim was his "Jazz inspired music", then when asked to name some pieces which were Jazz inspired, you couldn't answer me. lol
Here's some actual facts for you - "During this period Debussy wrote much for the piano. The set of pieces entitled Pour le piano (1901) utilises rich harmonies and textures which would later prove important in Jazz music." (cont)...
@qushrad65 "Debussy probably heard ragtime when the famous band led by John Philip Sousa appeared at the 1900 Paris Exposition as part of a European tour. The crisp clarity of the idiom must have appealed to Debussy’s growing sense of anti-romanticism, and he went on to emulate the ragtime style in three piano pieces"
@BlacknesUnforgivable (cont)... "He also influenced many important figures in Jazz, most notably George Gershwin, Bill Evans, George Shearing, Thelonious Monk, Duke Ellington, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Herbie Hancock and Jimmy Giuffre."
LMAO... you are destroyed, once again...
I'll be waiting for you to list all these pieces from the composers you mentioned which you claim were influenced by Jazz. :-)
@qushrad65 Ziryab is recognized as the person who modified the lute by adding a fifth string, thus creating what developed into the Spanish guitar. Through his music he became an Arab superstar in Cordoba and created a music school that continued 500 years after his death
@qushrad65 The best known of these is "Golliwog’s Cakewalk" (part of his Children’s Corner suite, completed in 1908), which includes an incongruous quotation from Wagner’s opera Tristan und Isolde. Debussy returned to the ragtime style in two later piano preludes: "Minstrels" (1910) and "General Lavine--excentric [sic]"
@qushrad65 Yeah there were a slew of jazz musicians who were partly influenced by impressionist artist,so what? I just posted proof that JAzz (ragtime music is an early form of jazz) influenced some of their work
@BlacknesUnforgivable What I posted (Debussy's influence on Jazz) is just a drop in the ocean in regards to Classical influence in Jazz. Without Classical, Jazz wouldn't exist.
I just posted proof that Debussy influenced Jazz. I also asked you to tell me what would Jazz be without all the instruments which were created by white devils. Could you answer that? Come on... :-D
@qushrad65 on Dvorak - "He found the inspiration he needed for American music in the melodies of Native and African Americans. In his opinion, these were the melodies that would contribute most heavily to the foundation of an American musical style. Dvorak was introduced to African American spirituals through his friendship with Harry Burleigh, one of his students who later became his personal assistant"

@noticityrealicity Whites have not had a huge influence on Jazz, sorry. The overwhelming majority of Jazz musicians spanning the 20th century have been black. Buddy Bolden , a black man, is credited for the invention of jazz. Duke Ellington is considered in many circles to be the greatest American composer.Sorry
@BlacknesUnforgivable Whites have had a huge influence on Jazz, and many other genres of music. No need to be sorry. :-)
For example, Jazz wouldn't exist without Classical. Whites had a huge influence with early Swing & Dixieland bands. Then we have the actual musical instruments which Jazz relies on. Take the piano, double bass, electric guitar, bass guitar & saxophone away from Jazz... what do you have? Exactly.
You actually searched me out to reply to me on that other video. Wow... lol...
@noticityrealicity Yes obviously jazz has classical influences.It also has the influences of various African ethnic groups....your point? It was blacks who picked up those instruments and merged the two , not whites.
mein gott kann der gut singen!! wo ich herkomme ( Bosnien ) gelten eben solche Sänger wie Elmore , die dieses Zittern am Schluss ^^ beim Singen können, als die besten Sänger !! siehe Miroslav Ilic oder Safet Isovic , die beherrschen auch dieses verdammte Zittern !! hhehe
@assedup88 On the LP Record named Story of the Blues noM 63573 CBS stand a track named Sunnyland Train and it was prevously never been on record before and Homesick James the nephew of Elmore told us years ago in Amsterdan that he was playin'on the record,wish to know more pleas inform me
@bobobekker Yes it was Robinson, but there is an earlier better version of this, this version here being from a session close to his death issued on Blue Horizon LP762230 late 60,s remakes with live chat by elmore, Bushy Head on piano.
@gitfiddlejim You're right but there an earlier and is from 1-17-1953 on the Chess Label with John Brim,Jimmy Reed and Little Walter Jacobs no:CH 1537 Called Whose Muddy Shoes.And on Kent Records with alternate takes. If You wish to know more please sent me a mail adress:bobobekker@hotmail.com or hbekkerbobo@gmail.com. Herman and Fred Bekker from the Netherlands
True enough, Dylan was an influence on Jimi as a LYRICIST. But way before Dylan was on the scene Jimi was listening to & being influenced by Albert King, Muddy Waters, B.B., and ELMORE JAMES. BLUES GUITARISTS. Look it up. Read a bio on Hendrix.
I'm experiencing my first taste of unrequited love, unfortunately this song now makes sense to me in ways it never did before. Thank god for the Blues.
Happy BD Elmore (27 Jan), thx fr the music
this one's my favorite

@BlacknesUnforgivable Why'd you think they call it the 'Spanish' guitar? You're talking about some other stringed instrument. The GUITAR is European. Every instrument I listed has its origins in Europe. Your attempt at trying to re-write history was typical of anti-white racists. I do enjoy laughing at you people. :-)

@BlacknesUnforgivable As I said, you're not talking about the guitar. You're talking about another string instrument. Why do you think the classical guitar is also called the SPANISH guitar? Musicians are not using this old middle-eastern instrument you keep mentioning. They're using the SPANISH guitar which comes from SPAIN (a EUROPEAN country).

@noticityrealicity I think you are the anti-black racists. Your kind come on old blues/jazz videos like this and interject the MYTH of these instruments being European in origin , when presented with the fact that these genre's of music are part of the Afro American tradition
Not my fault you all are insecure.

@BlacknesUnforgivable "RacistS"? That's plural, dopey.
You haven't come with any facts. You're just churning out the same old afro-centric nonsense. Why do you think the SAXophone is called the SAXophone? Because it was invented by Adolphe SAX (a Belgian). Would you like to deny who invented the Piano, too? Go ahead. I DARE you. Jaja... :-D
Would you also like to deal with the fact that Jazz wouldn't be what it is without its Classical music influence? No, of course you don't. Jaja... :-D

I didnt say anything about the Sax dummy , i was talking about the guitar and some of the other instruments you named.And are you inferring that classical music has no non european influences as well? ;)
BlacknesUnforgivable 5 months ago
@BlacknesUnforgivable You said what I'm saying is "euro centric" and "white washed", when I'm simply just stating facts. If I'm "euro centric", then you're Afro-centric. You're saying the exact same things Afro-centrics say.
The guitar comes from Spain. Fact.
Individual composers may have non-European influences, but as a genre of music, a non-European influence is virtually non-existent.
I didn't say whites invented Jazz, although they have had a HUGE influence on it. It's still shit though.

@noticityrealicity The guitar comes from the middle east - FACT."The term is used to refer to a number of related instruments that were developed and used across Europe beginning in the 12th century and, later, in the Americas.[2] These instruments are descended from ones that existed in ancient central Asia and India."

@BlacknesUnforgivable That proves me right you MORON. lol... I said EXACTLY what you've quoted. You were referring to another stringed instrument.

@qushrad65 "Debussy probably heard ragtime when the famous band led by John Philip Sousa appeared at the 1900 Paris Exposition as part of a European tour. The crisp clarity of the idiom must have appealed to Debussy’s growing sense of anti-romanticism, and he went on to emulate the ragtime style in three piano pieces"

@qushrad65 The best known of these is "Golliwog’s Cakewalk" (part of his Children’s Corner suite, completed in 1908), which includes an incongruous quotation from Wagner’s opera Tristan und Isolde. Debussy returned to the ragtime style in two later piano preludes: "Minstrels" (1910) and "General Lavine--excentric [sic]"

@noticityrealicity Whites have not had a huge influence on Jazz, sorry. The overwhelming majority of Jazz musicians spanning the 20th century have been black. Buddy Bolden , a black man, is credited for the invention of jazz. Duke Ellington is considered in many circles to be the greatest American composer.Sorry
BlacknesUnforgivable 5 months ago
@BlacknesUnforgivable Whites have had a huge influence on Jazz, and many other genres of music. No need to be sorry. :-)
For example, Jazz wouldn't exist without Classical. Whites had a huge influence with early Swing & Dixieland bands. Then we have the actual musical instruments which Jazz relies on. Take the piano, double bass, electric guitar, bass guitar & saxophone away from Jazz... what do you have? Exactly.
You actually searched me out to reply to me on that other video. Wow... lol...
