Gene Vincent - Jump Back,Honey,Jump Back.

[jeanmariebasset]

dickie harrel attaque comme une marche militaire et accompagne magnifiquement,les blue caps,éblouissants comme d'habitude

[eldorado62]

No piss-balling about back then. It was called "rock & roll".

[azizip171]

The lyrics to this song were written by African American poet Paul Laurence Dunbar. He deserves attribution for the words to this song. Google Paul Laurence Dunbar poems or Paul Laurence Dunbar A Negro Love Song.

Also, check out Rufus Thomas song Jump Back on YouTube. This is probably were he got the refrain "jump back baby jump back".

[covgra]

Esto es ritmo y lo demas "moña"

Viva el R¨N¨R

[hmoon99]

No Gene Vincent no party!

[muttgang62]

DIG THIS CAT MAN!! TIGHT ARRANGEMENTS.

[ACurlThing]

Great poem PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR!!!!! THE ORIGINAL OWNER

[mitchapalooza7]

@ACurlThing I wouldn't use "owner" and Dunbar's name in the same sentence its kinda.. bad taste? (half kidding of course) I'm planning on getting some of "we wear the mask" tatt'd on me

[ACurlThing]

@mitchapalooza7 Just so you know, I don't write comments on here just to wait for someone to comment, I actually have a life (not kidding) and Dunbar was THE ORIGINAL WRITER and OWNER OF THE POEM.

[rollindanny57]

Gene came to England in 1969 [I think} They made a documentry about it. So sad to see the great man having to chase money he was owed for performing. He was so broke he only had a few coppers in his pocket.He had gained a lot of wieght and his limp was more obvious.He died 39 years ago almost to the day from a bleeding ulcer. R. I. P Gene we will never forget you.

[xanglat]

Excellent !

Great quality of sound ¨

make for dancing !

SMILE

BRAVO

[ralphcraddock]

brilliant version by gene and the blue caps.

lets see you guitar players tab this one!!!!

[playgirlc]

sdfsdfsd

[dkfelix]

Anybody knows where to find the text?

[rmorris3612]

Jeff Beck is the cat's meow!

Anyway my sister's old enough to have seen Gene about 1958-9 at the Evergreen Ballroom (Washington State)

I met Gene's guitar player from that era Jerry Merritt.

A great gentleman. He walked into the Tower Records I

worked at in 1994 in Portland,Oregon.

[ed1cat]

I've dug this song for years but just discovered a version on youtube by Dorothy Collins recorded a couple of years earlier. Interesting to listen to her version immediately followed by Gene's. Rock and roll came on like a thunderbolt!

[DJShieldz]

the dogs bollocks!!!!!!!!!

[hornetobiker]

I once ate my own face listening to this.

[biglinguist]

@hornetobiker accidentally, I hope...

[eric1love]

Spring reverb+Tape echo=what a combo

[djflyingv]

Did any of you guys hear Jeff Beck's tribute album to Gene? He doesn't sing on it but, he's got Gallup's guitar riffs down pat.

He says in the liner notes it's more of a tribute to Gallup. In any case it's a must hear for any G V afficianado

[mitchly]

@djflyingv I sure did! To be honest, when I first heard it, I thought it was Cliff's work, remastered. Mr Beck sure is a great player, and a nice guy by all accounts! Billy Gibbons. UK

[djflyingv]

I realize I made a big mistake Mr. Thunder

Sorry to every one. Eddie Cochran died in that auto accident.

[stjoeisle]

I believe Gene Vincents leg injury was while he was with US army in Korea-

RMANL

[djflyingv]

One reason Gene wasn't filmed very often is he only had the use of one leg, the other was mangled in a London cab ride he took with Eddie Cochran. Eddie wasn't injured.

[ElvisThunders]

Eddie Cochran died in that car crash.

[old65rocker]

I think you will find he had a bad motor cycle accident while serving in the U.S navy in about 1955. from then on the leg was aways a problem.

It was further aggrevated in the car crash that killed Eddie here in the UK and the accident happened near Chippenham Wiltshire. If im wrong sorry folks.

[oldschool619619]

Yeah you write they crashed in an MK2 FORD ZEPHYR. I go past the stone now and again

[redmk6]

@oldschool619619 it was mk2 consul buddy,look at the crash pics and ya can see the grill is a consul one....

[problem49]

@old65rocker Gene's ambition was to earn enough from his music career to get his leg amputated. He always performed wearing a brace and such was his passion and intensity that sometimes blood ran down his crippled leg.

[old65rocker]

@problem49 Yes. I saw him live several times in the 60s, he always gave a performance that left you wanting more. In the book Race with the Devil the story goes that at the outset the hospital wanted to amputate the leg but Gene refused. From then on he was never without pain,a true artist that always served his fans the best he could, I feel blessed to have seem him.

[problem49]

@old65rocker Brit Haggerty's exhaustive biography of Gene, "The Day The World Turned Blue" relates Gene's morbid ambition. Evidently the leg was more trouble than it was worth. Incidently, I recently learned that the bobby who scooped Eddie's Gretsch from the accident scene was Dave Dee of Dave Dee Dozie Beaky Mich and Tich. Yet another tragic waste.

[old65rocker]

@problem49 Yes indeed.

[djflyingv]

The best

[TheSunRecords]

Gene Vincent means real Rock n' Roll.

[fatwagon91]

Cliff is one of the greatest guitarist. ask Jeff Beck

[rollindanny57]

It seems strange to think that Cliff Gallup wasn't a rock n roller just a straight country man.He was asked many times to do a reunion with the bluecaps but always seemed reluctant to talk about that period in his life.He couldn't understand why people got so excited about his playing.He was only with the Bluecaps for 1956 then he was replaced by Johnny Meeks who was good but he wasn't Cliff.

[jimicoop]

I just learned and memorised very single Cliff Gallup lick on this song. Cliff was such a natural.... full of fire and excitement... Learning it was a good kick in the ass.... especially knowing that he just played it loose and off the cuff. Wow!!

[toonage56]

Great song filled with excitment, what a great talent gene vincent had.

[problem49]

I second the comment about the youtube monicker;You must be a Blood Freak fan.

[NoRosesForMe]

why does thsi only have 4 1/2 stars?? Its Gene fkn Vincent! 5***** and you quite possible have the coolest YT name. xD(haroldturkeypants)

[sucisimo33]

como suena esa guitarra de gallud ,uno de los mejores guitarristas de la historia del rock,n,roll.y el resto , gene vincent y los demas que peazos de musicos ,de los que quedan poquitos hoy en dia .con ese swing felino , stray cats son erederos de este talento.

[pismo10]

Because it is a sucky video, a still pic for 2 minutes. Great song tho.

[NoRosesForMe]

well i know most people prefer good visuals but Im a listener. I dont need visuals myself. But yea awesome song.

[gamster68]

The ultimate rock 'n' roll song Cliff Gallop's guitar picking is up there with the best Gene's pulsating vocals give this song the edge out of the 56 sessions this one is up there love it.

[motorvating]

My old chap and mum rerally rocked in the 50's, me dad was a Ted and my mum a rocking Judy, and then they got into the Rocker image in the 60's, so I was brought up on this stuff since my birth in 63. Right from my earliest memory I loved Gene, and he is still mt favourit artist today.

[electros54]

Great great!!Los Electros.

[Oldskoolmusiclvr62]

I wish that I could play this Riff on Guitar,Damn That Whole song is very fast & tricky to try to mastered on guitar,Cliff Gallup was Fucking Amazing back in the day w/Gene Vincent.

[EyeMPabo]

Easy to hear why Jeff Beck liked Cliff.

[Erkele]

finefinefine souu faine.

[feverrecords]

What a group guys, what a playing!!! Listed the second solo.....something like an UFO at that time!!!The Gene's Rockabilly is the real Rockabilly music. With the first Blue Caps he created, in my opinion, something like the most sofisticated jazz music!

[djsundancekid]

the real king

[dkfelix]

Vad iz da zong kald??

[smudgey6120]

shame their is not many pics of cliff or any film footage that we know of amazing guitarist for the day

[urbanmonkey997]
