I'm an Apostle of the Funk genre of Music. I've always followed my favorites' favorite artists or who influenced them. It started from loving Parliament/Funkadelic to Prince. As I read about thier influences I was drawn to Sly Stone & James Brown. Mr. Brown said 1 of his favorite artists growing up was Mr Louis Jordan, whom I never heard of. I can definitely see the influence as he was very entertaining to watch and great musician.
@Helmsley Mipps Thanks for posting this doc! My grandfather was Jesse Simpkins, who was the bassist in Louis Jordan's band for many years (you can see him at 34:32). I've been trying to track down more information about him, and it was suggested that I reach out to anyone who has posted videos featuring him, as they might potentially have a personal connection or know someone who did. Any suggestions of folks who might have known him or known what happened to him would be greatly appreciated.
That's quite a lineage! Your grandfather looks and sounds awesome! I wish I had more info for you - I'm just a fan of the music and found this video on an old VHS tape and figured others would love it too!
@@helmsleymipps Hey thanks for getting back to me! It's all good- even knowing that you didn't know him makes me feel one step closer to finding someone who did.
Listen, we'd love to claim him here in the midwest, but Louis Jordan was born in Arkansas. So, the south.
Louis Jordan was a great performer
Looking for Dave Centrone. Please have him contact me if you know him!
Louis Jordan is also the founding father of R&B, his song “Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby” used elements that would come to be R&B music
Thank you Louis Jordan
The late Great Reggae Toaster Daddy U Roy credits this man as his influence...U Roy is the foundation to a lot of what happened in Reggae/Dancehall music...
This is a great doc. Thanks for sharing
2024 ! ❤
In the 90s west coast swing was catching on and I sang in a band (Jump Up!) performing a lot of his stuff. His lyrics were dynamite, fun and clever. So underrated...
Burroughs was high and old here. Methadonian.
Hundreds of views for a genius like Burroughs giving advise. Millions for ignorant fools like Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro giving advise. This is our world and culture. It suks.
Brings me back to my video store days! This one was part of my rotation, the moment it came in. I still love Burger King iced tea! I don't think it's the same these days, however.
Awesome. So glad they carry the great tradition of the impressions and Curtis Mayfield forward in good ways.
End-credits say copyright 1984 (Channel Four Television Co., In association with RM Arts and Third Eye Producrtions).
When you can “see” the bass…. Amazing song
Thanks for posting. My dad sang with the Pattersonaires. He is the loudest😂
The Pattersonaires are Memphis greats!
That's my aunt in the thumbnail! (12:23)
Thank you thank you thank you!
Absolute legend no doubt about it, audiophiles know, common folk don't
When I was 17 the BBC aired a 3 plus hours music show about the story of the blues. B.B. King was co-hosting the show. Louis Jordan 'Caldonia' clip moved me so much, that I became a instant fan. Apparently at the Apollo Louis Jordan would interact with the audience and stir up some trouble and pull someone on stage, to join him but allegedly it was part of the act. James Brown held on for years about his musical idols but when he did eventually open up, Louis Jordan was a big influence. James even covered one or two of Jordan's songs. Louis's 'Let the good times roll' was used in the Blues brothers film when they sit in an apartment with the trains rolling by. And I personally believe Louis's 'I Want You to Be My Baby' to be one of the first forms of rap, when he kicks off and sings 'Listen to your daddy'... it's so fast.
Mitch Snyder, Presente!
Thanks so much for sharing - I am a huge John Greyson fan (esp. Lilies and Zero Patience) and have never been able to find this movie. It is a travesty that these movies are all so hard to find. Greyson and his team(s) are so creative.
When he played Baker's Key Board Lounge in Detroit I was in the military and broke. Was so disappointed that I was never able to see him in person. Always in trouble with wives, ex-wives and his girl friends; then, there was the Internal Revenue! You had to love this guy. Do any of his fans know if he ever made it big in LasVegas. He was the father of jump blues.
This is an exciting watch for me. Got stuck till the end
This is a treasure
This man influenced James Brown and Chuck Berry.
Boo you
The Lord has no usage for the word fuck you hethen
You sound drunk and old
With all due respect the musical shorts that became the frontrunner for 80's MTV pre-date Louis Jordan by at least a decade. Cab Calloway and other were doing them in the 30's.
Happy to hear so much of the music featured in this film!
Ndeysan, that’s founeh and mawdo, use to live in duppakunda, this clips must be around early 90s. My heart is so happy watching this video.
I always think Angelo Moore (Fishbone), himself a sadly unsung hero of a certain generation of LA music that made millions for other (white) people, is a modern-day Louis Jordan. Talent, style, shit to say. We're still ignoring talent like this. 🤷♂️
Qqq
Thank you
What a Genuis
Thank you so much for this... I first saw this documentary on a programme called ‘ THE TUBE’ on Channel 4 in the U.K.... We recorded on Betamax and watched it as a family over and over...but the Betamax broke down... I’ve been searching for ages... this is a joy . Thank you .
Louis Jordan was absolutely 💯 my grandfather twin(rip walter sonny)parker
How am I just seeing this! Lord! I’m so blessed!
Excellent!
The biggest selling R&B artist of the 1940's...Louis Jordan the man who infuenced a generation of future R&B/ rock & roll acts that came after
Who played a role in the creation of ROCK-N-ROLL
Jordan's "Saturday Night Fish Fry" has always been my choice for first Rock n Roll song. 1949 with Ham Jackson playing early guitar licks later used by Chuck Berry.
Every chance I have to write online about the Mount Rushmore of Rock & Roll progenitors, I put LJ right up there with Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Fats Domino, and Bo Diddley.
Don’t forget Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Hank Williams, Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters and RAY CHARLES!!
Thank you so much for sharing this documentary on Louis Jordan. I believe that Mr. Jordan was the starting off point for bringing joyful Black Talented people to the forefront.
We all have got to do whatever it takes to keep artists like Louis Jordan and so many others upfront.
He deserves a movie 🎥
Not really as much of a documentary as a collage of film about him, but what a performer!
These men paved the way for all the bands that exist today in Rock Music.
This man needs his life story told!!!
