[MessieurVoyeur]

he seems like he's copying the john mayer trio

[smalltownstrings]

Yeah just like a trio except its a 4 piece;/

[moxjetff7]

Stop labeling these videos with the tags "Derek Trucks." He doesn't sound anything like Derek.

[smalltownstrings]

Yeah your right Derek sounds nothing like him. Sorry.

[bluesdrummer715]

I dont understand who's led him into the blues rock arena? Its a rehash of Johnny Lang! KWS! The poor kid is going to get labled as an SRV wannabee. Very one dimensionable. Derek Trucks, Mike Welch, Shuggie Otis, and Hollywood Fats were light years ahead of this youngster at 15!

[smalltownstrings]

Sounds like there's alot you don't understand.

[Mojorising7]

Read all the negative feedback below. First, John Mayer is way OVER RATED. D. Trucks 8 million % more advanced than J. M.

This cat's got SOUL, and he's got a Marc Ford way of playing his guitar...though this song could be a bit tighter...adding some extra percussion and back up singers and we got a true blue winner. Rap sucks. Rock takes genius. Great job - and don't listen to those other cats - bet they don't know a C flat from a B sharp (you'll get the joke if you are a player) - Peace.

originality doesnt come from the chords you play. how original can a guitar get? it only has six strings?

[jammyjoyful]

Why is Jimmy Bowskill not embraced by blues (and blues-rock) fans ? ? He's only about 21 years old and has these vocal/writing/guitar-playing skills ? He should be a household name in the blues community in America. Eric Clapton, INVITE THIS KID TO YOUR 2013 CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL ! ! !

@smalltownstrings

2 entire different artists. Also if you like good artists check out Kraig Kenning, that is if you're ready to drop some tears, cause that man plays your soul.. look him up, you'll enjoy

[lilrolter]

Je découvre ce garçon ! C'est fantastique ! et le voix et le jeu de guitare ! bravo !

[Ramrodian]

@thestrugglewithin So, you are telling that Les Paul himself, that played blues himself, actually should been playing jazz instead?

Because he made a jazz guitar according to you?

You can play all kinds of music on all kinds of guitars, you can even play jazz on a explorer or razorbacks! The Gibson ES guitars are more for jazz, but they are great rock and blues guitars too.

[backwoodsgps]

way too young to be so heavy!

the boy needs a childhood

and so do his parents!

this shock and awe shit is making me sick!!!

get a life!!!!!

[PlayItAgainJim]

If you are making decisions based on a $150.00 camera ( like most of the posts on YT you need to get off your butt and go to a show... this kid is awesome live!!!!!

[Ellyfor4]

I saw him last week. he was great!!!

Good comment about Jimmy Bowskill but the "F" word doesn't add anything to your review.
