This is amazing!!!!! One man, one guitar, one amazing song. So much passion and soul in two instruments his guitar and his voice. New music doesn't even come close to touching this.

How can anyone not love this?

I wish my strings could withstand this kind of abuse.

BB King's older cousin, he lent BB 10$ to buy his first guitar. Booker told me this in 1971 and a few years later BB verified to me that it was true.

Back in 1971, Bukka, Jimmie Stagger, and myself sat up all night long singing 20 verse versions of this song, drinking Old Charter whiskey until dawn. Miss ya, Booker. Doctor Hamfat

what amamzes me is crap like people giving half assed opinions of useless info can have more views than these old footages and songs of great past performers making REAL music.

I am so happy to see the amount of views this has. Though it is still relatively small compared to others on youtube, it is still astonishing and heart warming! This is probably the most constructive use of a knife as well

The 12 dislikes are most definately people dressed up as gay transvestite muppets that listen to each others opera and country music while taking it right up the sewer pipe as they moan and groan about how pitiful their existance is! How about you dislikers "F" off and stand on the next street corner thank you very much!
