Very bad solo ouch!

@SometimeAngel I love these guys- what other black bands are anything like these guys?
-
@nukenfry Long before Muddy Waters buddy.

@secretcheef I love Living Colour, but I don't know if these guys solely can defeat the vast array of talent that comes out of not just Sweden, but Scandanavia in general.
Although, I'd like to point out that white people got their rock from blacks. Blacks killing it on guitar goes back to the Muddy Water's days.

Wow the African Ronald MC Donald sings very well

skin color shouldn't be a factor in music, in love, in human rights, in anything. If you've got soul or something to say, let's hear it!

@SometimeAngel I agree, I think Living Color influenced many of the black bands we have now, but it's sad to say that very few of them get the recognition that they deserve. My favorite band Sevendust has a black lead singer & sound a lot like Living Color, just a bit heavier, but I've never been able to see any of their videos on MTV without going to OnDemand in digital cable. A worst case is Rayzing Sons half of the band is black but I've found very little info about them dating back to 2003.

Thank you for suggesting changing the settings. It synched up the soundtrack to the video, which really enhanced the viewing & listening exprience. I thought the Band of Gypsys played the definitive version of this song until today. Living Colour may not have played it flawlessly, but neither did Hendrix. It's wild & wooly & full of raw intense power. Serious rock, amigos.
