Those who criticize this video are clueless morons. Crumb is a lover of old music, and this intimate performance is his way of keeping that music alive.
Crumb, my ma, you musical geniousity knows no bounds! bonds? beans? bones? Well it's gone, but you don't worry, cause your're sittin' on top of the world. Yas yas yas.
The comments through me fer a looop but me I's nots so bright a star to begin with.
I saw r. crumb, and I thought of the crumb stuff I jeest scanned from a short "Bring me your love" by Twokowskiing. er Bukowski thats it. Good writer that feller ya know!
lol but i didn't know he played the guitar. As for the references in these comments wow, crazy stuff!
It was a joke. Crumb rightfully mocked the Stones for being the posers they always have been. That's why it is suprising to see him pose as a "bluesman" here.
You're right, he does. The Stones asked him to do a cover for one of their album in the sixties or seventies for a bunch of money and he said "no" because he thought they were macho, vapid, and annoying.
I missed that performance, I think Josh did a solo gig later on in a smaller room, while promoting the paperback version of Tales Of Times Square and Warts and All

Any honest blues lover should read Amari Baraka's classic, "Blues People" which was written under his former name, Leroi Jones.
Then maybe one would better understand the critisms written above.

Wow, maybe Crumb could take Keith Richard's place in the Stones.

Heh well I really don't think Crumb would want to be associated with the Stones,
Let's just say he has incompatable differences
with their music.

if you buy the Robert Crumb Handbook, theres a CD with it, that contains 20 tracks. Plus, it´s a grat book.
