[oqcbon]

genius!

[Wiskyeye1]

What they want to eat? >>>>>>>Elwood!>>>>>>>and Jake shit the Blues Brothers! LOL Love this Eyebrow Twitch-in guitar pick-in blue legend not to mention the others Otis slingin Ivory? ......Phew, good clip surprised it hasn't been removed by some jerks who thinks this somehow violates a rule against society?

[Wiskyeye1]

@Wiskyeye1 Opps Didn't even notice UL'r "GRIN" one of those jerks who thinks if someone else had put this clip here it would be a crime? :)

[xijack]

watch 'blues brothers' movie

[opticeye69]

What kind of guitar is that? an es-335??



[opticeye69]

Matt guitar Murphy is one of the best blues guitarists ever in my opinion!! If you like this guy Check out Steve Cropper! He is another one of the blues brothers band members Who has done more than he is given credit for!! Check him out!

[rugbyvagrant7]

the blues brothers did well to get him!

[Avalanche1368]

Didn't know Eddie Murphy plays guitar. Hes good...........Watch Eddies left eyebrow. Needs some Botox injected in it to stop that twitch..

[tonyj1965]

@Avalanche1368 He reminds me of a young Carl Weathers!



[Avalanche1368]

@tonyj1965 Tony you're right! I knew he reminded me of someone. Carl's early days. Plays guitar much better than he acts...

[markstacechris]

A great guitarist whose barber should be shot.

[TheOffcialACCFans]

I saw matt&freddie robertson,,rays,guitarist for years,,they just happen to be inthe same club,in nia.falls ny.I never will forget!!!!

[mikehouston1]

Matt and Memphis slim together awesome.

[tiponin23]

Willie Dixon! Thank You.

[mattybock]

the master of ceremonies is so damn enthusiast.

[borsecrosu]

willie dixon forever

[mustangpatty51]

Matt is just awesome. Have loved him for a long time even before the Blues Brothers

[d820m]

that's what i like about Matt Guitar Murphy, he doesn't mind playing any of those songs from the Blues Brothers movies and albums

[caseyjones67]

is tht the guy from blues brothers

[highroller48]

@caseyjones67

Indeed it is. My only complaint about the Blues Brothers films is that they don't do enough to showcase the huge talent of Matt Murphy, Tom Malone, Steve Cropper, and the rest of the band. Would have loved to have seen more solos in the music scenes.

[VISIONmg86]

@highroller48 Get the 25th anniversary edition of the blues brothers and it has many extended songs included that were edited out.

It's great!

[kronk99]

@caseyjones67 Yep....

[americanzombie2012]

Awesome jam what year was this filmed has to be older than 2008

[Grumberf]

Eyebrown :) ! wish i cloud be that into Rythm

[tomthefunky]

"AW, SHUT UP, WOMAN!!!!!!"

[bpl711]

what song is this?

[MrSheffield8]

he has the elton john eyebrow, or rather elton john has the Matt guitar Murphy eyebrow....ha ha

[JFruscianteGod2]

that tone is unbelievably thin for being a gibson. i didn't know it was possible to make a gibson's tone that bad. great guitarist but damn

[GONZOGONZO927]

@JFruscianteGod2 that's actually pretty normal, Django Reinhardt had that same tone and John Lee Hooker too, they all sound thin, ti's probably the string gauge.

[1954tele]

I love the blues, getting to see musicians of this caliber, feel like it's Christmas. Even his eyebrows are in the groove.

[BluesRockRo]

the great willie dixon on bass! respect.

[ewoe21]

Matt's a Bad Dude !

[grade21]

Awesome. I also liked him as "Kinch" in Hogan's Heroes.

[woodjoewood]

i love slim so much.

[robertm2000]

Interesting ... Gibson putting this out. Matt Guitar Murphy more recently endorsed Cort brand guitars. Cort put out a Matt Guitar Murphy Signature Model.

[WTFROFLMOA555]

where can i find tabs for this song (guitar)

[ElliotRocker]

Anybody knows what happened with Billy Stepney? Any whereabouts?Is he still alive? and after this, what came to him? I'd be grateful for any info about him. Thanks

[2009framat]

@ElliotRocker

I do not know what happened to him either. I have the same problem with E-Bass-player and Brother of Billy Boy Arnold Jerome Arnold. Maybe you have any info which dates after 1969?

I know the Bluesdrummers S.P Leary, Francis Clay, Al Duncan all died when they were in their 70's. Ody Payne died in the late 1980's/early 1990's I think. I know Sam Lay is still alive, Willie Smith,too. Don't know about Frank Kirkland

[cdvicious]

graet band playing there ! you think they still do shows?

[dkstryker]

i dont even wanna know what the heck it took to learn how to play the way he does. i learned to play from vintage rock n rollers and blues players and youtube of course!

[firefry1]

@Drobko if they aren't all drunk then it just isn't the blues

[emwalcc]

Excellent! 

[gde81]

Excelente presentación!!!!

[TrailerNo9]

[yaneasalgueiro]

[FullFreak666]

[Drobko]

I think Dixon is drunk as hell:D

[WingChunHard]

@Drobko hahaha that is right

[MrJohnnycrabcake]

@Drobko chewed up !

[fredriknorand]

Great musicians btw

[pajaroloqo]

Really amazing musicians! :)

[allaboard70]

This is so great, yes excellent music. And remember Willie Dixon is one of the greatest in blues ever. All good musicans here.

[drpickup]

ell thank you Gibson for this treat!

Worth checking out the albums he made with Memphis Slim too - (The original Stepping out for example)

[whodaman5]

I'm pretty sure he was MatT Guitar Murphy BEFORE the Blues Brothers

[tpbdragon1]

yes, yes, and YES..hes one of the guitarists from"the blues brothers" movies...and hes right up there with BB, Albert, Muddy, Buddy, Hooker, and ALL the other great blues guitarists...."thats all I got to say 'bout that"....

[TheBassfresh]

willie dixon on bass !

[wisesatyr72]

was this guy w/the Blues Brothers?

[TonyOnTheRise]

yeah, thats Matt Guitar Murphy from the Blues Brothers movies

[gaba540901]

great !

[acousticelectricdude]

i recomend the album "Lucky Charm" by him

[kidwasnthere]

what year is this from?

[rayjr62]

I think 1963.

[Bistocracy]

One of the best blues guitar ever!

[76russell]

wasnt he one of the guitarists in the blues brothers

[Bistocracy]

Yes, he is!

[JazzBluesFlorida]

Matt is playing tonight for free at Boston's on the Beach in Delray Beach FL as part of their 30th Anniversary party. Come on down!

[rayjr62]

Wow. I wish I was down there. I read somewhere where Matt had some health issues- evidentially he had a stroke but I haven't been able to find out anymore about him. If he is playing then I am assuming he is ok. God bless Matt.

[fdlevine]

yes indeed Willie Dixon on bass!

[FinsterFlummoxing]

I wish they had duplicated that famous photograph of the jazz legends with the legends of blues. That would be cool.

[djur117]

he's eyebrow is the best

[apgwheeler]

Is that Willie Dixon on Bass?

[hudman514]

He would give a girl hell with how fast he played those notes.Simply Awesome!

[theguitarshop]

Matt was the heat......You can TELL he's good. I mean.... Just watch his LEFT EYEBROW !!!

[Bluzer86]

Wow that was some smooookkkinnn hot playin´ :)

[catssniffs]

This remind's me of Luther Tucker. I seen Matt in the mid 80's, he was good although I went to her blue's and all he played was jazz.

[d820m]

Matt brother Floyd Murphy is a guitar legend himself....he plays on some of Junior Parker's early recordings for Sun and Duke Records

[ETBRAIN]

The real root of Rock & Roll (That's Boogie, folks!)

Thanks for posting it. ET.

[montecore18]

I'm a blues fan and I'm ashamed to admit it's the first time I ever head of this guy. But WOW. I could watch this all day.

[tuxguys]

Matt plays like some mutant offspring of B. B. King and Grant Green.

[ruleta74835]

Long-time lover of the Blues Brothers movie. I must say, however, that I couldn't tell from the movie that Matt is this good.

[frribbib]

plz plz does anybody know how to play this i want to learn it so bad. also wat a uality film blues brothers.

[kidokan111]

for all u guys who have never heard matt where u bin watch blues brothers and do ur self a favour

[mrgreentom]

It is always a pleasure to hear Matt "Guitar" Murphy break it down!

[Mounhas]

Recall I had an album with Sonny Boy Williamson, MT Murphy guitar and Otis Spann piano. Just never heard of him again. Hope he had a good career. Drummer looks so cool...

[tuxguys]

I believe the drummer was some relation to Charles Stepney, who was an executive at Chess Records in Chicago.

[MrCaribbean]

Matt Guitar Murphy has to be amounce the top rankin blues men,YOU"D BETTER recognise,and then some ;)

[skatelikekemp]

wow why isnt this guy more famous

[rudeblues]

[jurrassicmonkey]

Shit. They still owe you money, phool

[samguitarmurphy]

the first movie is so much better than the second.

[sharp1972]

the music in the second movie was killer...the story sucked but the legends playin' together was significant

[MidasHert3]

One of my all time favorites very under rated MattGuitar Murphy
