John Campbell, Crossroads Blues

Johnny Slim Campbell performs the Crossroads Blues in the late 80's on a 1934 National Steel guitar. Great slide work by one of the best bluesmen I ever met.

I knew John when he started out at the Crossroads in NYC...I just 'Knew' he would be famous...when I told him that..he just humbly 'aw shucked' me off in that sweet way he had. :) He was amazing then and became more awesome over time.I saw him backstage at a concert in NYC b4 he was to go on tour in Europe..not knowing I wld never see him again. He was scheduled to open for BB King upon his return...and all I remember was walking home thru the park crying.I will never forget u, JC..:)

Well I liked the place itself as well I'd go there or the Kettle of Fish a lot and hang with Paul Butterfield who I knew a long time, that's when I met John there even played some harp with him on guitar just goofin around as I always had a harp with me or even 2...But also I was after that cut little blond bartender from New Zealand that worked there to be honest..LOL..!
