The smile on Robert Cray's face at 00:24 just says it all about Hubert Sumlin & what a privilege it must have been to have played with him.

I'm picturing him jammin' with Wolf, Muddy, Albert King, Robert Johnson & Stevie right now.

Christmas has come early for the Lord.

So sorry to hear that Hubert Sumlin has passed away. He was one of the best. Just listen to his solo on Wolf's 300 Pounds or his playing on Down in The Bottom - just brilliant!

I met him at a concert in London a few years ago and he gave me his plectrum (not that he used one). On the back it says: I ain't done yet!

I religiously listen to metal music and have only just heard of this guy. Seeing an 80 year old rock out like that, I respect the dude so much

epic.

First heard Hubert Sumlin many years ago. The lines he was playing were so frenetic, heavy, and out there that it made the Sun Ra stuff sound like common time pedestrian sunshine. It was one of those moments where you're thinking if this DJ doesn't say who this is... Well God smiled on my ears because the man finally said "that was the great Hubert Sumlin folks" thus my introduction to a lifetime of extraordinary guitar. RIP Mr. Sumlin. My ears (and fingers) thank you for a life well lived.

@assassin0402

Thanks for picking that up mate. Edited. Checked out your channel also & you have some awesome clips on there. You deserve more subs. Look forward to your next upload ;-)

[assassin0402]

why can't the good ones live forever???

too sad

[HEADBANGBALLER]

@assassin0402 Then we would not legends that become mythical figures for our kids to look up to. And Stevie Ray Vaugh wouldn't get new band mates to play with!

[ssnag]

Playing with the Oxygen running. My kind of artist! Thanks, Hubert!

[Irene00007]

The shirt he's wearing in this vid is from Memphis' Peabody hotel's boutiques. I know, I shopped for them but my BF would not have appreciated it so I just got him a regular T-shirt but when I pointed it out to Mr. Sumlin while he was at Tremblant's International Blues Festival in Quebec; his expression was one of amazement. How did I know where he got his shirt! He was one of the most adorable artists to grace any stage at this event. I will never forget him.

RIP Back jammin' with Howlin' in the great gig in the sky

[greenmean1]

Such a great guitarist RIP Mr. Sumlin.

[superfuzzymomma]

I still have the birthday present I bought for Hubert for what was to be his birthday bash at Mexicali Live on November 16th. Showed up at the club early and it was pitch black and locked... Not one sign mentioning that there was to have been a show. About six of us stood out in the rain for a bit, tried calling the box office to no avail, and finally split. Its an Italian purple silk tie, and a card in the shape of a Gibson electric. I'll get it to you one day! Hubert, Its been a pleasure!

[timchaos]

Thanks for posting this!



[davrosbrother]

All time great. RIP Hubert

[TheDonpedrossy]

R.I.P.Hubert.

A sad loss, for all who had ears to listen, rest easy Hubert.

[radomu1]

RIP



[hawkhill2008]

Sad news but his music lives on!

[dannan69]

The greatest Bluesman I ever knew. Got to play Bass for him 4 times and it was the best time I ever had on a stage. Much love to Hubert and his family.,,,,, especially Toni Ann.

[elpanchito421]

Rest in peace Hubert, you have no idea how much you've influenced this 20 year old.

[peonwarrior]

Another Great bluesman gone, but he's music will stay for ever

[mac8128]

I glad that I had the honor to watch and talk with you Hubert. RIP

[scawa1952]

Just heard from Happy Traum.... One of the low key unsung heros of blues... HE WILL BE MISSED....
