- Fred McDowell (January 12, 1904 -- July 3, 1972) known by his stage name; Mississippi Fred McDowell, was a blues singer and guitar player in the North Mississippi style
"The Blues had a baby and they called it rock and roll".
I am a very white middle class British man...but this fantastic music stirs something deep inside me...awesome!
A lotta white middle class Brits liked the blues back in the day and still today! Your not unique!
Hey! Don't forget that one of you Brits jad a project much like Alan Lomax! They traveled the south and hunted down and recorded blues men also!
But I've still got a couple on ya!
I've walked the streets of Como barefooted!
And I had an illegal immigrant friend by the name of South.
Yup! He was South Hampton! 😂 Better yet, he worked at the Union Jax Pub in Memphis Tennessee! I miss him and I miss the pub!
The Mississippi delta definitely has its own sound.
I was blessed to be able to meet and play with Fred in 1971 in Seattle. I prefer his acoustic recordings. Fred was a very upbeat, kind, good-natured person and a real gentleman. As a concert promoter for the Seattle Folklore Society I was blessed to meet so many of the original bluesmen. The Stones recorded his version of "you Got to Move".
Did you meet and got to hear and see Son House play too?
@@dennisdistant No, but he played in Seattle before I was involved, Skip James also played in Seattle via the Folklore Society, also Lightnin' Hopkins, Doc Watson, Bukka White, Rev. Gary Davis, and many more. Like I say, I feel truly blessed to meet and learn from the greats, thanks.
Them Mississippi men are gentlemen.. my hubby still opens doors, walks an umbrella around to my side if the car , holds door sort of thing ... I love being treated like a lady ... he's so sweet to me .
How is he?
Awesomeness
I’ve been into The Blues for 50+ years. Mississippi Fred McDowell is outtasight. 😆😀
Mothers milk to me. We have the only degree in southern blues music in America here @the University of Mississippi/Ole Miss. My sweet home.
As long as people get the blues, there will be blues, after all music is an expression of the musicians thoughts and feelings
I am Thankful that Mr. Lomax Recognized this Man's Talent!
Now it is Preserved as Music History!
Mr Lomax taught us so much of our heritage that defined rural America. These men and women described the emotions of their era.
Don't let this music die !
pick it up and help
Please don't!
The BEST Will never die ,It could be forget for some time but It Will reborn,cause It IS really goog became from the deepest of eeuu people's soul(sorry x my bad english)
First time l met the blues..l was walking down the street..Good mornin' good mornin' Mr blues..how do you do?..lol
First time hearing this my mind is blown.
MISSISSIPPI--Home of the Blues--49/61 Crossroads....
Blues is like American Express, I don't leave home without it.
Ten Years After turned that song into a popular rock song
Always thought they had wrote it First time hearing this version. Cool
Real music, raw and authentic. no bullshit, for real people by real people.
Amen…. 🫡
I first heard this song on a Ten years after album in the 1970's Alvin Lee did it justice and this is effing great.
It's incredible that he did with an acoustic guitar ! This man was a genius, and his music modern at his time !
dont insult him and call himn a genius
Love this song. I have lots of family from Mississippi and we all love Fred McDowell.
Mr. Fred is one of our our Delta kings.
Da Bach of da blues. Just Fred's face alone.......
Thanks to those that posted this!
Great sounds, just one more thing that sets America apart and special... In Slidell, Louisiana we once had black blues artist by the name of Gatemouth Brown, he played guitar and other instrument, his singing was something to behold... A treasured now gone but never forgotten.... I once saw him and a fellow musician taking dinner at Denny's there in Slidell... only wish I had ask for an autograph. Also love hearing the truly great... black blues harmonic players... A sound one never forgets.
Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown was a great blues and zeideco player......he made the rounds pretty well and was an influence on several........I think I have a CD of his around here......
Good gosh! Summers at my Great Aunt's out on a slough near Slidell. Hot has another meaning. My Granddad helped clear some of those drainage ditches down there. To hear about that hugh ancient equipment work is just humbling.
I saw him in Bellbuckle Tennessee, with my Dad, who was a musicologist from England. He spotted the gig advertised in a local Tennessee paper and made us drive to Bellbuckle. He played lots of stuff, including a number called Blue gummed, Catahoula, alligator eating dog…we loved it.
All you need in life :
Good friends,good food and good music.
And a bottle of Kane-tucky's finest. ...Jus Saein
THAT WAS FREAKIN' AWESOME ❤ NEVER HEARD NO ONE PLAY LIKE HE DOES THERE 💯😎
Class act!!! Chuck Berry would bow..👑
GREAT music!! it's a shame kids today will never hear beautiful music like this.
That's the thing, though. We live in the digital age, and can enjoy oldies like this if we choose to. I've been listening to Fred since I was a teenager. I'm now 31.
You know this is on UA-cam right? I mean.. it's NEVER been easier to hear music like this. No hoping someone in your class liked the blues and had a record. No wishing your dead end record store had it on the shelf. It's a search away. Man I wish the internet had been around when I was a boy wearing out the same old four or five LPs.
im 17 and i love this music. robert johnson, Mississippi Fred, and t-bone walker are my favorites. this music means so much more than vapid modern music
@@HatlessAtlasHA. Lucky you !😍
They will hear it but they won't listen to it
Love this. I'm from Ontario Canada and tend to listen to blues from southern american stations online. Now this is what real blues is. Although I love all kinds of music even guitar rock and jazz alot of blues is now just guitar rock. This to me is true unadulterated blues.
If you enjoy this music, you might also enjoy Sleepy John Estes. It is also the real authentic blues.
Millón de gracias por este maravilloso regalo .
Old Mississippi Fread. Well I have to say he's something. Spot on sound, excellence to say the least!!!
You listen to this long enough, you will hear hundreds of your favorite guitarists and blues singers. This is like the common ancestor of a million tunes.
Just found out that I share my birthday with Mississippi Fred! Made my day!
Lucky you!....😊
@@michaelgrosser1657 - Not the same year, just the same date.
@@carltaylor4942 Yeah, just trying to be phunny..all the best to you sir.....
Only one word sums it up
BRILLIANT.
Mr. Fred is the BEST!
This groove and instrumentation is so authentic it takes me to another place in time.
ME too!
This still sounds fresh.
Lord have mercy!!! This gave me chills up & down my spine. Absolutely amazing!! This here, folks, is The Blues. Period. End of subject.
I heard ya! I think the early stuff (pre-1940) is the best. Happy hunting!
@@tdsims1963 is this pre 1940?????
My dad , he was from 1920...born* in "de Jordaan' in Amsterdam,,,always say:"The Stones are good , but they 'stole a lot , from the old bluessingers" after hear this,,,I thougt: yes dad you where right...that time in the sixties😉
@@jaapklein1600 actually I don't think the Stones stole it. I think they did blues songs to honor the Blues men. 😊
@@cyndygough4107 Fred McDowell loved the Stones...He Said their covering "you gotta move" was the best payday he had ever got up till then.
This is where all the rock you listen today came from Mississippi Fred Rip thank you for all you people that like the delta blues checkout Surgar came Harris
I love the raw, gravely voiced authenticity of Country Blues...
This is Mississippi Blues not Country Blues.
I saw him live three times, and not long before he died. He did not appear sickly at all. These were concerts I didn't want to end. He was also a true gentleman, quite humble.
Pure as driven snow. Superb.
Thank you for sharing this........I am 76 years old born and raised in Jackson Ms. I love this sound, a treasure. Sound is fantastic.
Right there with you...Murrah High 1972
D'lo
Glad you like it Ms./Miss Wilson.
What a treasure❤
Hope you are still with us and enjoying the music by the way I'm 72.
I know that this was a different time, but I can't help but wonder how young this school girl was.
16
Been a fan since 1970...
Man if these guyes were not around what would Steve RayVahan would have done RIP Fred and Stevie. Peace Out and Love MMLZZZ
I’m 78 and I like this
Geweldige muziek.
Damn good stuff!!!! The heart of rock is the soul of sweet music called the blues!!!
Always been a fan of this most incredible performer, wowza such a magnificent guitarist, and a powerful voice ...so very genuine and soul inspiring.
This rocks just as good as anything today
This Is Beautiful
I remember the Yardbirds recorded their version of this about 1965.... but Mississippi Fred is the motherlode.... brilliant fingerwork.
Absolutely awesome 👌😍😍😍🇦🇺
This man’s music was one of my main go to’s when I briefly stayed in Louisiana.
The good old times
Back when cassette tape was the usual medium for people sharing music, a friend sent me a mix tape of old blues with a lot of Fred McDowell. Shake 'em On Down, You Got To Move...so many incredible songs recorded by Fred.
Makes you wonder on all the great songs that were never recorded, are lost forever.
Don’t fret, Taylor Swift, Katie Perry and the likes will record shit that will be unearthed thousands of years after our civilisation has ended and that’s what will define us. Might go shoot myself now.
Fantastic Johnny Winter does a fair job of this
Hola capo abrazo espectacular por favor mándame más de estos temas terrible Me encantó Gracias...
THIS IS THE REAL DEAL BLUES ! ALTHOUGH I LOVE TEN YEARS AFTERS VERSION TOO.
A great singer.from the most important time.
And under appreciated singers!!
"Mississippi Fred McDowell". What can I or anyone else say ? "This man kills it !!!"
Pure blues .... need no more...
One of the best blues recordings.
I could listen to guys like him all day. Both the guitar playing, and his voice are wonderful.
Can see the blues..on face, fingers, tune....soul.
Wow another gem😍🥰😀😘
Listening again, loving every note, how the hell has this music been lost to generations? And replaced by bubblegum shite.
I haven't heard this in forty years. It's just as I remembered - thrilling and brilliant. Thanks for uploading.
This is the creation of Rock and Roll.....like it or not..... it is a fact.
GOD BLESS YOU , TY 😅😅❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
A debt of gratitude is owed for this quintessential american musical treasure.Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad I found this. Beautiful guitar work. I'm in awe of anyone that can play the guitar like this.
great sound
Brilliant is real my favorite.
Hij is goed he?
talk about feelings and emotions this is it! It's what music is all about not about how many records you sell not about how many Grammys you won for me it s about soothing the spirit for me it's emotional without that there's no connection.This is a great song!!!
Great songs by great performers. I love Johnny Winter’s version of this song on the Johnny Winter And Live album.
Me too. That was the first album I ever bought about 45 years ago. Still one of my favorites.
I also love Johnny 's cover of this! Don't get me wrong, Fred's version is killer too! All guitarists are a bit different. They are both among my favorites. Only got to see Johnny once:, an experience I'll never forget. Unfortunately I didn't get to see Fred. May the blues live on!
this is one of my mother favorite
Eu gosto muito dessas músicas
Legend!!! Super!!!
For all the BS click-bait on UA-cam, you can always find gems like this.
bill Hilliard I have to say the recommendations I get for "Blues" have been consistently good, but for most other topic there’s some real dross.
The blues don’t clickbait!
Danny Walker o ya!
@Danny Walker Wahahaha. Pretty good. Can you pick??
Muy bueno! Mucha calidez, aquí les comparto algunas melodías Patagonicas ua-cam.com/video/mMQsAoD-buk/v-deo.html espero que les guste, Saludos desde el Sur :D
I am a 75 year old white man !!! And I love this musik
Jesus that guitar tears through my guts...
The real good stuff! So many times covered and yet the original is the best of them! Authentic Mississippi Blues.
absolute toetapper... cheers Mr JJ
back in the day.... thanks
I grew up listening to this still luv it back in the day the wolfman came on nightly great memories
I give thanks daily for people like Mississippi Fred and the blues.
Muito show
"Groovy man, very groovy!" J.S.Bach to Fred Macdowell.
Amazing músic with metal Guitar strings produced a singular sound!
This music will Out live us all timeless
I love old school blues make me think about the sharecroppers
Estos genios son lo que inventaron el rock sin ellos nada hubiera sido igual son los que inventaron los ritmos y armonías las vocalizaciones de lo que luego se llamo rock saludos desde México DF
It's so funny how (my) white rock and roll came from these maestros!
blues like it was meant to be FANTASTIC!!!
Pure music, pure love
Who are the 289 deaf people who don't like it?
I don't know how old this version is but a thousand years from now it will still be stomping everyone's ass into the ground.
Ernesto De La Serna this is original artist who wrote this I believe. This is blues back when blues meant somethin. Mostly poor people grew up on farms with nothin some tried to make it big. But there wasn’t much money in serculation back then. Some of these artist were recorded on the farm were they stayed and lived
1964
A good friend turned me on to Mississippi Fred McDowell in the early 1970s. This song is on his Capital album called, "I Do Not Play No Rock & Roll," that I bought back then. It was one of two of his albums that I think were released posthumously. The other is called, "Somebody Keeps Calling Me," which was released on the Antilles label in 1976. I bought these vinyl LPs and one other one that was released on the Arhoolie label in 1964, and I'm still enjoying them.
Yep 🤗
Sonny Boy Williamson is the original recording. Who the fuck knows who actually wrote it
I WISH I WAS BORN BACK IN HIS TIME REGARDLESS OF THE SOCIAL SITUATION,I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE PLAYED BASS(UPRIGHT) FOR HIM....
One of the masters of the Delta Blues,needs no introduction.A master on the slide guitar.Anyone who downs this classic needs a brain transplant.The likes of Hendrix,Clapton,Beck & Foggerty cut their teeth on Mississippi Fred & Robert Johnson !R.I.P. to you both !!!
Oh, that was good. As much as I tried to keep my feet quiet, they just insisted on tapping along. :)
Damn this is some good stuff.
My uncle used a old Alka-Seltzer bottle to get a sound like this. He was a truck driver in the early 50s and carried his Gibson L1 with him. Wish I had that guitar.
Fuking awesome Music
