The Life and Times of H-Bomb Ferguson

h bomb used to babysit me when i was little. ha my mom used to babysit his son. went to his layout.

I lived in Cincinnati from '98-'00, playing with my dad's group Jerry & the Hipswingers. We knew H-Bomb and the Medicine Men pretty well. Played the same places, got double booked at Red Fish downtown once, and some of the horn players played with him and us. H-Bomb was a weird old dude but I dug him. He never spoke to me directly but after I sat in once passed a message via his bassist that I was welcome anytime. To be acknowledged by 'the old guard' is an honor. H-Bomb was one of a kind!

Heard Ricky and Peter Frampton have been hob-nobbing. That's great if true. Get those two together with Ms. Winehouse on vocals and the blues would burn the house down in Cincy

God bless him and keep him! One hell of a blues man

I worked at Burbanks Bar-B-Q in the Forest Fair Mall in Cincinnati, Ohio and I had the pleasure of working many nights when H-Bomb played. LOVED all the different colored wigs he'd wear. Never knew how popular the guy was outside of Cincinnati until after his death. He was amazing.

This man was a god. I count myself incredibly lucky to have lived in Cincinnati for several years, where I saw him play many times. Sorry I missed the premiere, but I absolutely must own the DVD!

"who the fuck is this guy?!" Among other things, he's the guy who recorded the rock and roll song "Rock, H-Bomb, Rock" -- heard starting at about 2:10 here -- a couple years before Elvis Presley or Chuck Berry recorded anything.

Good luck with this film. I tuned H-Bomb's piano once while he sat on the couch watching "Matlock". It was one of the best times I ever had.
By the time I left, he had given me a cd and we had talked about everything from pianos to Big Joe Duskin to fixing his coffee table. You had to be there.

It is always sad when somebody is narrow-minded such as the idiot that made the comment above. To say that H-Bomb's backing Band is not the real deal is retarded. Not to mention the statment about having White Guys that fake it. White or Black, it makes no difference you idiot. I bet those white guys have more soul, not to mention Class than you will ever have!

Sorry to hear it. The Old Cincinnati Blues crew is fading away. Many good memories. How do I find a copy of the DVD?
