  • BBBBBBBBBBLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLUUUUU­UUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS­!!!!!!!!!

    

  • Amazing.

  • @llewellyn51 thats simply non-factual. the drummer is al duncan, bass Milton Rector, Guitar Matt Murphy, keys either lafayette leake or billy emerson. i dunno where this "white pickup group" story started, not the first time i've heard it. its a chess house band of session players...great session players. check these guys out, have a look at their credits. "white beatnik boys"...what does that even mean if it was true?

  • @pastamatza no dude. Green Onions was released in Sept 1962. So before Sonny Boy Wiliiamson. Their not the same exactly. And as a Led Zep fan I know in blues this is common. I'm not judging that.

  • It's the other way around. Booker T ripped off the chord progression from Sonny Boy Williamson and sped it up for Green Onions in 1964. Help Me was released in 1963. But everyone borrows from everyone else. Great artist aren't petty about these things. It's the suits that try to make many off these things.

  • The slap of the snare (is that brushes on the snare?) is just perfect next to the harp sound - this is pure genius - the understated organ (now that's church).

  • @grovsnus1 They need help. :)
