      Agree. Timelessness is the mark of classic music. No junk, no tricks, no machines, no autotune, nothing but pure talent and I could not leave this post without mention of major sex appeal that transcends time.

    Tony Joe's son said his daddy never sought fame. He just wanted to be Tony Joe White from Goodwill, Louisiana. He definitely had the talent and those that followed him loved him. He just kept playing his "swamp" music as he called it. He left this world with hundreds of unrecorded songs.

  • @katyjoanmary
    @katyjoanmary 4 роки тому +6

    He was a wonderful voice to listen to, love the swamp guitar and blow. He chose not to be over famous because he didn't like big concerts and stadiums, he liked to keep it small and personal. Look through the videos, wherever you see him playing it's always to a downhome crowd. I think playing with Tina Turner's Foreign Affair tour, doing Steamy Windows etc was the biggest. Sadly missed.
