  • good group ah yes

  • Great & Wonderfull !!!

  • Best cover found on Spotify. Peter Mafay and Sonny Landreth 8:50 long.

  • Great performance, wonderful sound, hot! Love it!! I once camped my Trillium trailor, illegally, in the Square for 5 days during Mardi Gras. This music is the REAL THING. Takes you back and back and back . God bless the Neville Brothers.

  • from announcement of Aaron Neville they must've just done Tell It Like It Is

  • @bayouhazard Sorry, I haven't explained myself properly. I agree that whether or not you like any song, irrespective on who performs it, is personal. I think it's common knowledge that Bob D likes Hendrix's version of All Along The Watchtower better than his own. The point is, without the original there can be no other version. When somebody does their take on somebody else's song it is DIFFERENT. Because Sonny wrote this great song we can all take pleasure in other people's versions - amen

  • @rightshag That's one of the sillier things I've ever heard here.  Plenty of versions can be "better" than the original. The thing you can't take away from an "original" is that it's the original. Much of the world of jazz and blues is based upon taking the original tunes and playing them WAY better to my ear than the original. Would I rather hear Dylan butcher Like a Rolling Stone or Jimi Hendrix play the hell out of it. Better is in the ear of the beholder. I love both versions here.

  • This is absolutely the best version of this song. They took a great song and made it so much better. I've seen The Neville Brothers numerous times and it is impossible for them to put on a bad performance, they are a must see to apreciate the incredible talent in this group.

  • New Orleans heart and soul!
