Damn Right, First heard this song on "Blue on Blonde" By the lovely Angela Strehli, of Texas Bluse fame. Ya gotta check that one out fellow Bluezers. Angela sang with the late Great Stevie Ray at Carnegie in '84 on Stevies Birthday. Cyndi is brilliant here. Again, Damn Right I got the Blues!
i love cyndi!!!!! :D when this was on the Celebrity Apprentice me and my mom where sitting there just loving it that they had her sing :) like mother like daughter :) we both love cyndi
It's a fucking SHUFFLE!! Play it right!!! It's a shuffle!!! Can the drummer even play a blues shuffle? God I hate it when rock and rollers obliterate blues shuffles by playing them with a straight beat. She and band would sound hella better of they played it as a shuffle.
@Tremolux59 what exactly is the difference between a straight feel and a shuffle on drums? I not questioning your judgement im sure your right, i just cant really tell how this would be played any different if it was a blues drummer back there.
@chalftits The best way to provide an example of a "blues shuffle" beat on the drums is an audio example. Right here on u-toob is the best place for that. This song was originally done by Little Walter. Search for it and hear the original with your own ears.
To describe it, imagine a straight beat with the drum hits coming at regular intervals, like: H...H...H...H...H etc. A shuffle has the drum hits coming in pairs, like: HH...HH...HH...HH...HH and so forth.
@chalftits Another popular song which is not blues but is a shuffle, is Don't Stop by Fleetwood Mac. Probably doesn't hurt that the first incarnation of Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green was very much a blues band.
Blues shuffles are fun to play and fun to dance to. It's a very driving beat. There are a few forms of shuffles, double-shuffles and backwards-shuffles. The back shuffle sounds like a flat tire rolling down the road. Ker plop....ker plop....ker plop....ker plop. Have fun!
I have this CD. it's an awesome CD it's a a great CD for any blues liver. she seems like she loves the blues more than anything else she had done. Johny Lang plays on her CD as well as some other greats. I also think she has aged very well. she is still a very pretty lady. thank you for showing the world her true colors. no pun intended.
ok if you like cyndi..... but realy dont kid yourself this would be better without her singing seriously the whole memphis blues cd i find her singing rather annoying...she should stick to what she does best bubblegum pop and she is best remembered to as an answer to an 80s music/wrestling question.
@rashneesh I totally disagree with you. I bought her CD Memphis Blues and I LOVE the CD. I find her amazing. She is always trying new things.........check out her CD where she is singing the Etta James tune "At Last".......I played that for so many people and none of them thought she could do that song!..Their loss! I love her because she never plays it safe............sticking to "Bubble Gum" would be doing just that!!!
@ikcinbaz just caused you TRY to do something different doesnt mean you are good at it! im glad she is EXpanding but she just doesnt cut it as a blues singer. and although this is just my opinion she tries way too hard to the point that it is just plain embarrassing kinda like yoko ono TRYing to playing with world class musicians. those poor poor musicians i dont blame them for taking the money but if you dont think my opinion holds any weight then just look at the same songs by someone else
I live and follow Charlie Musslewhite, D.J. friend Mr. Bill Bowker, Mr. Big Dave, Katy...KRSH 95.5 F.M. Santa Rosa..None Better, across the U.S.A,. Americana wasn't born here but transmitted daily by Bill Bowker back in THE SEVENTIES.....Dave Alvin last night with The Gene Taylor Band, Kim Wilson last night, Charlie Musslewhite runs this show....Cindy has almost nothing...Thank You...irreplaceable, The Aces, and , Mr. Charlie and Edda Musslewhite,, none better......
Cyndi Lauper é uma grande diva da música mundial, me surpreendi muito com ela cantando bleus. Adorei, sensacional, estou apaixonado, ouço todos os dias este grande trabalho desta sempre, sempre e adorável interprete da galáxia.
I am grateful, to God, that there is somebody, like Charlie. If it were I, I would get bored of playin blues after about 2 years. But his enthusiasm always seems to be like new.
She raided Memphis for her band. That's Skip Pitts on lead(Isaac Hayes bandleader) he played that famous lead on Shaft. The rest of the band are the sessions guys from Ardent.
Leroy Hodges on bass, Howard Grimes on drums (both Hi Rhythm on all Al Green's hits) and Skip Pitts on guitar from Isaac Hayes' band (who played the wah-wah guitar on "Shaft") are not exactly young musos, but we appreciate ya'll who like the sound.
What a performance by Cyndi. Charlie Mussellwhite is classic and I can't wait to see him at The Rock House in St. Louis Missouri Friday June 11, 2010.
She's having the best moment of his life, I'm glad she hasn't dropped into the cracks, like many "singers" of this generation, and that she's following his heart, and that's all that matters! I love knowing that she leaves a good legacy for those who love her, and that his son can feel very proud of the woman who is his mother, she never fell for the pressure, and was able to maintain its integrity, something that few can say in this industry! Thanks, Cyndi Lauper, we love you!
I admire Cyndi so much, such a great performance! I'm surprised that no one has talked about her subtle lyrical jab at Donald when she got on the table and sang, "...calling Rosie 'O D, you're such a fool" while pointing her finger at him. I think Ivanka was quick to get the hint but Donald perhaps was either too caught up with the moment or he graciously took it :-)
@patrng408 Yeah, i thought people were going to talk about next day, maybe no many people got it when She sang on the table to Thrump " With Rosie OD and mess with you" then pointed her finger to his face.
i did realize bret was pretending to snap cyndi's ass hahahaahah omg. well even though im straigh woman i have to admit cyndi is hot... our girl rocksss.. look at trump's face , he was droolin all over the place when cyn stepped on the table hehehee
Such a strong performance from Cyndi - like most real professional singers - this sounds better live! Love it - expected more views - but que sera sera.
