Eric Bibb - I heard the angels singing

[TheNoniest]

Amazing!



[jefffinley11]

This is a very "helpful" video. =p

[Armachillo]

This is the song that makes me crazy with joy and happiness and all things postive... Such a drive!!!

[PeluMaad]

Cabaret blues in the Josh White tradition...nice

[cryptoh]

what's left to say but: bless you mr. bibb!

[ambyyy1]

Eric sings this on LIAM CLANCY'S "LIVE AT THE BITTER END" Well worth seeing this DVD it includes TOM PAXTON and a few more great musicians!

[orchidbirds]

Thank you Mr. Bibb. Powerful!

[therealesteyeopener]

i was painting my sister's house and i had this mans album on... and then i put it on repeat. painting signs is the name and it is a great album..

[therealesteyeopener]

watch john butler - ocean, different style and stuff but.. watch it and you'll know what i mean

[alfalfalf101]

Forget humourous remarks, I just don't understand how people can have the lack of soul to dislike this.

[TheLightcatcher]

A gift is meant to be given away, thanks for blessing us with your gift 8-)

[Tomas026]

That guy sounds like a complete band.. except it's just him and his guitar!:O Impressed!!

[ShatterTheSkiesAbove]

@Tomas026 An absolute showman this guy is. This is one of those performances that gets under your skin :)

[wileycoyote86]

Can't believe I missed this one! There is a time for everything, what a blessing this has been to me,I have to shout, if you got the Holy Ghost You GOTTA shout and dance to this! Incredible!! Thank You Eric!

[RedtreeJoe]

Wow. Great to see there are still some real blues players out there. Rather than those that just play in the blues style such as keb mo and eric clapton.

[GeorgeArthas]

he's 60 something! he looks so young :O

[sagachi2]

future legendary bluesman

[buddybudstar]

I have seen this guy live 3 times! Each time I just had the most amazing goosebumps! Beautiful voice and lovely message!

[RayKnightification]

Picked up my strings after 5 years to learn this one. Been a long time but this guy Eric Bibb, just picked me up. I could feel the angels.

[youtublox9]

oh my good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[86victorious]

this is NOT and eric bibb song. this is a REVEREND GARY DAVIS SONG EVERYONE. i dont know if bibbs himself claims to have written this song but he definitely DID NOT. spread the good word. plus gary davis' version is better with amazing guitar in the end like in death dont have no mercy. PEACE

[GreatBanzo]

@86victorious he's always said it was a Rev Gary Davis Song. I have both versions and I love them both differently. When Eric plays it with his full band its epic

[01Glenboy]

Oh Man..... I sat within 15 feet of this musical magician @ The J in Noosa (Qld Australia) back in May, after seeing him perform multiple times @ the 2010 Byron BluesFest in April and I was practically beside myself - just incredible - Eric Bibb Is THE MAN!!!! ☮ ♥ ॐ ♥ ☮ His 'connectivity' is natural & blessed - Thanks Eric :o)

[FrogsFromtheSky]

Eric is the perfect blend of Robert Johnson and Eric Clapton..... Oh... If only he could write like Bob Dylan and play like Jimi Hendrix... Then you would have the perfect amalgamation of melodic progression and lyrical mysticism.

[jKRAMER001]

Woo!

[mydianne]

Eric is in touch with an other dimension....

[Samedition987]

gives you hope when you didnt even know you needed it.

[RayKnightification]

@Samedition987

[TheStevemcfall]

Just saw Eric tonight...he is so awesome

[theocratickingdom30]

@TheStevemcfall: I'm jealous!!!

[68mercurycougarfan]

sounds great

[MsSuzyQ2U]

Eric's videos were recommended to me by Greg Martin of the Ky Headhunters. Love your music Eric! Wonderful songs.. keep em coming!

[kingdaniel69]

Seen Eric a few times now here in Australia. True gent and a true genius and all with a voice like an angel.

[Russell172]

this man is a true genius......love his music, style...

[thumbcow]

One Word: EPIC!

[WUNDERFRAU2020]

recently had an MRI scan, was so scared - but I took Erics "Painting Signs", which they played for me, just kept my eyes shut and listened!

[Gil666theBeast]

I like this song.. his voice is not that perfect and clean as in his other songs! much more authentic! :)

[aerycksmusic]

Eric, let's the two Eric's get together and have a jam!

[theGuitarFR34K]

He's truly feeling the blues.

[surrealIdeal]

Eric Bibb is the only guy who can wear pink and still be blue.

[chopsddy3]

Reverend Gary Davis would approve.A top notch blues man with a style of his own.......Wow this guy is good

[philledwards77]

Oops typo on last comment. Eric Bibb. Small keys on phones are a bugger

[philledwards77]

Soulful, extraordinary, magnificent. Eric Bobby is a musical genius

[HaloBetty2U]

Eric Bibb is an angel singing!

[DeTimmermannetje]

Never heard a man with such a beautifull voice. And if you can hear that way if you have tune your guitar that little, there's absolutely nothing wrong with your ears. I guess he's also a fantastic person. Men I'd like to meet him...

[kingbiscuitstime]

Great performance!!!

[gordonourside]

I heard Lonesome Valley on WUMB this morning and thought it was Taj Mahal. Then the announcer said it was Eric Bibb so I googled him. Wow! I'm gonna go out today and buy a CD or two.

[kaliapi]

I am in love :-).....this man is my all time life long favorite, AND I never heard of him before today. Oh My...wish he would come to MN to play a concert!!!

[TheToocold]

[bigwillhenk]

[qqwweerrttiill]

That was wonderful. Its hard to say what i like the most, but if i had to pick one thing it would be how pure and honest his preformance was. Completely stripped from everything except the music and the soul. That man does indeed sing with all his heart.

[elpavoni]

what a soul!!!!!!

[xchump]

where has this guy been all my life!? that's pure genius!

[51Christin]

Eric Bibb "ramlade"jag över av en händelse! And what a surprice! Pleasent indeed!

[SteveyJennings]

I've fallen in love, and damn it but he's so amazing I can't help but be inspired!

[lyttnup]

I totally love this guy! What an incredible voice and vibe. Completely captivating.

[Kolbiarz]

The best of Bibb's songs!

[MkUltra1980]

@Kolbiarz nay man ... very good one, but still not one of his.

The best song Bibb wrote is "one of my heroes"

...

If anyone cares

But still it's a perfect cover version

[iseultodonnell]

[Zombiewulf1]

[HunterMann]

A blues fan in Perth?

[Jarrahnut]

@HunterMann ... blues fans in Perth, Western Australia? Sure ... we're red hot here in the West ... it's a purple patch here right now ... and I say that ...even though I am a Greenie ... and ... of course ... a real true blue ...

[HunterMann]

Pure poetry!

[heyjudeU2]

I loved it lots of energy and feeling I will buy your music. Thanks Eric

[deadairsam]

Amen Brother!  ... and thank you.

[frankdidit]

my dream would be john martyn RIP to cover this song and then Eric to cover 'may you never'.. just a thought

[oldcountrytunes]

Wonderful blues!!! *****. Thanks for sharing.

[Mariekesone]

His Soulful voice travels right down to my Soul...:-)

Magical...

[alliccio7]

Eric Bibb is a genius. The phrase is used too often but this man truly is. His father Leon must have been very proud iof his son. Eric Bibb inspires, uplifts and is just a brilliant musician and singer. Long may we enjoy his music.

[OneLightOutMusic]

awesome!

[derevolution]

top tune anybody any idea what kind of guitar he is playing there

[mikskyn]

@derevolution he was playing larrivee guitars last time i saw him. mik

[Elleygem]

I saw Eric at the Winespear in Edmonton , his voice was crisp and clear. Loved it, he was real down to earth to and chatted as he signed my friends cd. Oh yeah and we got photos with him.

I never heard of him until a few days before his concert. I loved his foot stompin.

[ritualfunk]

fantastic, I saw him live in my little hometown of sweden once, it was amazing as well ... cheers

[lurkbarn]

amazing talent ! :D

[jhuntwelder]

what a talent and inspiration!! cant wait to see him live.. "when you have the blues, somtimes you need to listen to the blues"

[WEIR4EVER]

Awesome..; this sounds like the wondrous music of Mali! Wish i'd see him mix and play with the whole Ali Farka Touré Malian lineages! He'd fit right in. This guy is so refreshing. Simple and genuine. *****

[mj99a]

excellent way to start my day!!!!!!

[tommdepomm]

this is real music

the opposite of commerce

[tommdepomm]

meaning that he would never care if he would make more money if he changed his music.

i'm sorry i can't really express myself in english

[rustler540]

wow.....I wish he would play that at my church sometime.

[fusionlotus]

lol me too!

[LiveVegan]

Saw Eric Bibb live in Santa Rosa in a small hall in '99. Really impressed. Very powerful

[RIGGlovesnigg]

This is absolutely amazing.

[mrymckinley]

Love him.

[mrymckinley]

Eric Bibb is one of my absolutely favorites. One of the best concerts I've ever gone to.

[06cHa06]

I appreciate he is very good at what he does, not sure this is my thing though :)

[multisockmonkey]

If you get a chance - see him live. He's a great performer

[Fringberger]

semplicemente stupenda: si ascoltano veramente gli angeli cantare...Eric Bibb: un mostro !

[HoBoFrench]

une chanson puissante, eric bibb sa fait un bout de temps que je l'écoute et chaque album c'est toujours aussi bon

[pppoooppp]

Shit, I saw him at school...Have to write papers about school performances and I had to go to his show at my school. I wasn't ENTIRELY impressed, but this song grabbed me, I enjoyed it.

[willybrown2309]

does anyone know where i can get the guitar tabs for this song??

[bigtigers4life]

good luck man, i've been searching for ages. Eric is apparently working on a tab book but who knows when that will be done. If you've got the time, you might be able to work it out from this video.

[bigtigers4life]

maybe a C, C/G, walking ito a B7 with some pretty bitchin' picking and additional notes. I've never tried to learn anything without tabs before. Someone out there will know better.

[Yeractualpatience]

Hi Willy. Don't think the TAb's around. He just picks a C/G, Em and B7 really. It's a pretty easy tune. Just let your fingers go with the flow. It's an old Rev Gary Davis tune.

[henryrulz1234]

He is the best ever i went to see him at the blues and roots festival in byron bay this year he was incredible!!

[ReducingTheFootprint]

i went and saw him at the blues and roots festuval in byron bay this year

my god he was incredible

[elitemeow]

I saw them play tonight at bellingen.... it was soooooooooo sooooo good aye.... he did the best intro 2 this song... It was such a good night.... cant wait 4 them 2 come back again.... hahaha at the end of this song i shouted "PREACH IT!!!!"

[jerrybabe1]

Where is he touring at the moment?

[picax89]

He's a man who has met happiness and Love.

Shine on, Eric

[pixielf]

Eric's a breath of fresh air! Love him and especially this song! Beautiful!!!

[rastamillion]
