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.
Always loved this guys swamp-funk style. His songwriting is so involving..the lyrics draw you in and his delivery is so cool. Great guitarist to maintain a simple trio yet sound as full as it needs to be. I get off on it :)
Of all his wonderful songs, this is my favorite cause it makes me laugh during this tough time, in my life, and across our nation. 🙂 Thankyou Tony !!! RIP TJW
Love you so much. Miss you, l u kind, sweet man. I think the Lord needed you. You are by far the sweetest man I've ever known. When I sing "summertime" I always think of you asking me to "come on up, Nita, and sing. " you and your family are wonderful people.
Polk salad Annie was the only song i had heard until about 3 years ago. I've been listening to him a lot since then. Great job on all your songs. R I p.
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.
TJW was a true blue swamp-boogie Hoodooman. He used music to summon all sorts of creatures that live in the far back reaches of the shadow and the soul.
I think we can't wish someone to die, but so many "musicians" around here who do stupid things, and a great one like TJW, dies, great ones like that should be eternal!
Wow i love youtube i have been discovering new musicians and i found this guy man is he great he could play that guitar sing and entertaian it sad to only get exposed to music from what they allow on mainstream dont get me wrong there good too but when i discoverd youtube it opend a wide door to music too hear a great musician like this gentlemen.Thank you youtube please dont restricted so much that we cant journy threw your services. Thank you...Roland from NM usa
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.
Awesome I've never heard it once Pedro but I am rocking in the Free World where an awesome song you people out in Winnipeg Rock God bless Jamie US Air Force awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome love it Yahoo
I will NEVER understand why this genius of guitarist, singer and songwriter was not a MONSTER star during his time with us....
He was... maybe it´s your understanding of what a star has to be like
Better than all the rest! 👍👍👍
@@Breakit689 Ah, now I get it... thanks to you. You seem very intelligent. I can´t keep up with that.
IKR life is BITCH very unrated 😩😩🙌
Heard he was lazy. Could have made MILLIONS.
I fell in love with this guy 5 seconds ago!!!!! Where was I all 67 years? Love, love, ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍
Bahaha!
Whocares???
Better late than never.
one of the tightest full band tunes you will ever hear. the bass line is so freakin great 👍
I agree with you 100% 👏🏻🥰‼️
Miss the guy like crazy. Genius in several genres. His guitar work is awesome. 😜
Great song and video. RIP Tony Joe White.
After 40 years its still swinging, Rest in Peace Tony!.
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.
And I couldn't help but say, this a Masterpiece of funk, and I certainly get off on it.

He was so great, yet under-appreciated. The real deal...

Love you so much. Miss you, l u kind, sweet man. I think the Lord needed you. You are by far the sweetest man I've ever known. When I sing "summertime" I always think of you asking me to "come on up, Nita, and sing. " you and your family are wonderful people.
Bye bye.

opened for TJW several times....one of the nicest ,coolest greatest human i ever met...great player/songwriter
Best music ever, never heard any better . especially Polk salad anny. Love this music.
Polk salad Annie was the only song i had heard until about 3 years ago. I've been listening to him a lot since then. Great job on all your songs. R I p.
I never heard of this person till today. He looks like one of the Bridges brothers. The actors.
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.
TONY JOE WAS, IS ,AND ALWAYS WILL BE, THE BOMB !!!
I remember seeing this on PBS in the 1980 on Austin city limits. Just was starting to watch ACL. He was one of the ones that hooked me
Glad I found this song..great rythm on guitar ...great beat ....he is smooth on his playing
Tony and the band were great. Such a great entertainer musician and artist. I liked all of his music. Great job by Tony and the band.
Now that is some funky groove guitar playing.
ABSOLUTELY fabulous and fantastic sound music, thank you good time for you
Great audio quality for 1980....tnx to whoever pulled it together!
Brilliant, love the style and lyrics a real swamp rocker, God bless this fantastic entertainer.
I Agree Tony Joe White is and was one of a kind Man I love his music and Song Writing 🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️😎🤟
How did I not know about this guy? Great funk right there.
Same here.
Love how you can hear how much the crowd starts to get into the song. Can’t resist the Funk !
Such a great musician and singer, I love his groove and funky playing
WOW; this is forty four years old
RIP Tony. Hope you are in God's arms💐
The band in heaven is amazing i bet.......God loves all musicians. Artist with sound. Very missed today....
TJWs song writing skills are out of this world
Yes, as a Song Writer, He doesn't get the credit He deserved. MANY Famous Artists covered His song's and didn't give Tony Due Credit . RIP Tony
What a fantastic voice, great rhythm. it's a joy
how did so many not hear him? just heard him first time right now.. because on The Grammys they listed him as one we lost.
LEGEND
Did your panties drop?😉 Women say they loose control over his voice.
Greatest music I ever heard.❤❤❤
Wow! Very tight, on spot in every respect...very, very, unique piece, well done!
Oh baby! You got the groove! Yum! I think death so sucks, 😪 💔 thanks for the wonderful memories darling X
Laughing every time I listen to this song !! Crazy lyrics..... :D
Listen to those guitar licks he plays. That's truly genius.

TJW was a true blue swamp-boogie Hoodooman. He used music to summon all sorts of creatures that live in the far back reaches of the shadow and the soul.
Very good comment
He's what John Fogerty and CCR were trying to be. Trying too hard, in retrospect. TJW's understated smoothness sounds like the real deal.
Damn, I love me some TJW !!! Gets me rockin every time !!! I get off on it !!!!!!!!
This is the single funkiest song I've ever heard
TJFW
Makes me gyyrate
TJW's rhythm is incredible!

Great sound and swing!
I think we can't wish someone to die, but so many "musicians" around here who do stupid things, and a great one like TJW, dies, great ones like that should be eternal!
He is the master of swamp sound.Top guitar player
This is so tight and groovy man , soooo good.
NICE VOCAL AND GUITAR PLAYING TONY...
