Born Under A Bad Sign - ALBERT KING w John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (1982 NJ)

[tuxguys]

Very cool.

AK, doing his signature tune, backed up by the band that (at least in name) did more, directly or indirectly, to (re-)introduce his music to America than anyone.

John Mayall: The Miles Davis of Rock.

Mick Taylor: The third member of one of Rock's Two Great Guitar Triumvirates.

(Major Clue, if necessary: Eric Clapton is the only member of BOTH of those.)

He gives me the same thrill everytime !! One of my best concert memory is to have had the chance to see Albert King ALIVE… THE king of blues.

[Hugegoodgame]

good find.

[RemoteAbductionArm]

I'm not a huge blues guy anymore, but holy crap, this is awesome.

[BLUESMANRONCHICAGO]

@RemoteAbductionArm you don't have to be a blues man to love this stuff, but if like me, this is heaven on earth listening to some of the best music ever put on this planet

[budman6565]

Luke Skywalker on drums! Lmao! Someone asked what the bass player is doing. Best I can figure is "it". What ever "it" is. Which is more than I can say for the rest o' the guys!

[CacheSeaker]

Presenting Albert King on Lead Guitar, John Mayall on Blues Harp, Mick Taylor on Rhythm, Lead and Slide Guitar, and Luke Skywalker on Drums!

[CacheSeaker]

John Mayall and Mick Taylor are stoned out of there minds. I am willing to bet on it.

[nintendonut100]

mick looks sick and so pissed off he's about to stab someone but he still manages to keep up with Albert king THAT is the definition of a master.

[brianpage100]

WTF is the bassist doing?

[nintendonut100]

@brianpage100 grooving like mad.

[wookieproductions]

haha the Bassist is really into it

[0koenes]

awsome shit wooowh beutyfull

[greensnake65]

I love this stuff...great video...great music!

[lilrolter]

Merci pour cette excellente version !! Que des musiciens exceptionnels !

[DAVO1984FI]

Really great live set!!!

[MrDragoljub]

MIck Taylor, one of the greatest guitarists of all times!!!! His guitar playing in The Rolling Stones is their best musical period ever!!!!

[MrDragoljub]

[MrSixstringjohnny]

this is great! the bass player needs to lay the fuck back, though...

[sankstone]

@MrSixstringjohnny What are you talking about ? He guy is playing one line ! If got any more laid back he would be in a recliner.

[Rcuthbert24]

@MrSixstringjohnny ....Don't understand how you can possibly think that :/ if he laid back anymore than how he was, you wouldn't be able to hear it. The bass sounds perfect.

[MrSixstringjohnny]

@Rcuthbert24 Haha, yes. I'm taking about stage presense,

[Rcuthbert24]

@MrSixstringjohnny or did you mean the way he was boppin' around on stage like he was on six hits of snuff? :P

[Odin029]

@MrSixstringjohnny Please he's the only guy driving the groove so the soloists can play out front. The drummer's not doing a damn thing and Mick isn't playing rhythm at all. If it wasn't for the bass player this would have turned into soup

[MrSixstringjohnny]

@Odin029Haha, yes. I'm taking about stage presense, again. you can groove without looking like a jackass

[mindingosafado]

love how most everybody has a '59 SLP haha its it wasnt like 3k id have one too :(

[missionrd100]

Albert rules!

[DiamondHarbourRoad]

Far too good.

[screwmaster404]

I was lucky enough to see this concert. thanks for posting this vid. Abert rules and Mick Tavlor is vastly underrated.

[MironDelSotano]

El Señor Escuela, John Mayall, a mi parecer uno de los músicos más completos que han existido, y la prueba está en los músicos que han sido parte de sus Bluesbreakers. Y bueno, de quienes le acompañaron esa noche qué decir: son el Blues por antonomasia. Simple y sencillamente fantástico: Gracias por compartirlo.

[badmuddy]

the only "king" afaic! you can tell he really loves mick here because he keeps trying to prod him into playing. & mick doesn't disappoint. he's SO high, though; poor guy. he let the stones rob him of so much. the only GOOD guitar player they ever had...

[taildragger53]

badmuddy:

 I agree with you. Mick Taylor's playing suited Albert more than anyone else. Taylor has that special feel & tone that is so rare among hundreds.

[nintendonut100]

@badmuddy indeed Jagger had style mick had feel and feek is so much more important.

[carlfia]

Thanks! I've been looking for this version for a while

[browndupa]

great video! thx.

[klasek]

Albert King and the Blues Breakers....You can't ask for a better combo than that!
