Sad to think of all the fakes and posers who achieve fame and these guys go virtually unnoticed. No weak links in Pokey's band. World class talent, man. This group is hot.
Miss this version of the band tremendously. This might be their pinnacle for me. The arrangement is perfect, and the musicianship is off the charts, without ever being blustery.
I drove through a snowstorm to see Pokey and his band, and only 4 or 5 of his band made it. It was a great show anyway. Got his autograph on that latest CD.😊
I've been fortunate to have seen Pokey twice in sunny Muncie Indiana. Outside concert. I love, love, love them and their music!! Oh, please contract Chloe again and come back to see us. We love you!!!!
@@jamesprince9041 Thank for putting a name to the instrument. Videos like this always drive me nutz when they don't credit all the musicians by name. It literally takes 10 minutes to type in some credits.
@@RobertPilla I must confess, I didn't know who she was either but came across her in a couple of other videos, my curiosity was piqued, I did a little digging and came up with a name. She's certainly a gem, and thanks for your kind words, be well.
Wonderful ‘feel good’ music. Lots ‘o jump and great musicians. I play clarinet so Chloe is always a special treat for me. Kudos to all. Oh.........and my heart goes out to the tone deaf cementheads who provided a thumbs down. For your own safety.......come down off the ledge. On second thought...........maybe not.
Number one band and singer. Better than anyband and singer in Nashville. Pokey and his band can out do them all. I just love em, play his music all the time. I am amazed at the talent they have.
Me: "Yeah, I used to play clarinet back in school." (Listened to her play) Me: "Nope, I used to squeak and break reeds." (walks away with my pride in my back pocket)
There are so many young, talented and innovative musicians comming up today in England, Spain and Europe it is sooo good to hear something really great here in the U.S. The lazer light shows and big productions have gotten soooo stale. Your fan base has to explode Pokey. You have what the music world is comming to.
I keep listening to this one for years now. Always wanted to play along. So I took some time and wrote down the chords and lyrics. See below if you wanna play along as well and have fun! Pokey plays the rhythm section in D tuning (2 half steps down) with Capo on 2 You can play it without capo in standard tuning as well He plays the chords very different here and there throughout the song so take everything below as a suggestion The C#7 is just a C7 one fret higher, D7 two frets, the F is played as a cowboy chord (x3321x) The G is played as a barree best as it allows you to play those muted hits better, some goes for the A7 Key to get the right vibe in this song is the left hand muting right after the hit C#7 x4342x D7 x5453x All the solo parts and the verse have the same pattern which goes like this F C#7 C7 F F C#7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F C7 F C#7 C7 F F A7 D7 G7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F [Verse lyrics] Sadie Green was the vamp of New Orleans And she had more sweeties than the Navy done had Marines Oh when she starts to shake her hips She'd say "Captain captain, go on and sink your ships now" If she starts to vamp oh gosh Mama burn my mackintosh Oh since my gal came to town Yeah she turned every little thing right upside down And she cried, oh boy, full of steam What she ain't got, she just don't need What a queen Sadie Green She was the vamp of New Orleans The vamp of New Orleans
Holy Fuck. Brilliant. I should be asleep but here I am....awake and loving every fucking second!!! Tomorrow is gonna blow...but I'm thrilled to have new music to explore while I bitch and groan about grown up life. Awesome.
Pokey Lafarge I LOVE your music! Bring back the oldies please. It is refreshing to listen to actual music. Sending you my best! Cant wait to watch you in concert.
Brilliant stuff....and hats off to the sound engineer for placing the mic about half way up the clarinet, not near the bell. Fantastic fun, really lifted my spirits! xx
Sad to think of all the fakes and posers who achieve fame and these guys go virtually unnoticed. No weak links in Pokey's band. World class talent, man. This group is hot.
The amazing jonathathan
They’re happy and that’s best
So true
The best right here and we get it to keep. Imagine how much better live.
🤔
Miss this version of the band tremendously. This might be their pinnacle for me. The arrangement is perfect, and the musicianship is off the charts, without ever being blustery.
Absolutely! This is brilliant!
Super tight band with fab musicians! Really miss this fantastic phase of Pokey and his crew!🤩
Chloe's smile while TJ plays his horn is priceless,,,,Pokey really fuckrd up letting this band to leave him,,,,I miss the old Pokey,,,rest in peace
I noticed that smile too, i think she just has great love for anyone with musical talent equal to her own which is absolutely outstanding!
@@markmanning2921 they behaved like brother and sister
I drove through a snowstorm to see Pokey and his band, and only 4 or 5 of his band made it. It was a great show anyway. Got his autograph on that latest CD.😊
This truly was the best iteration of Pokey's band. Outstanding.
I agree
Agreed. I don't connect with his newer stuff nearly as much as this.
I love the way she puts her clarinet on her shoulder like a batter in the on-deck circle.
Yeh she knocked it out all right
I've listened to this over a hundred times. What an amazing group. Bass player, harmonica, EVERYBODY in this band is passionate and perfect. Ear candy
Me too
There is something very special about musical groups where everyone in the group is really-really good at playing their instrument.
Amen!!!
A top shelf band and band leader. Chloe sounds great on that licorice stick. She's the cherry on top in this piece.
Licorice stick: I haven't heard that in a long time!
I miss Chole
Man she's .....amazing. Really all of them are topnotch musician's Great 🎶 .❤it
This young lady playing clarinet was just incredible in these songs.
Listening to this song made me a better person.
This is the most talented group of musicians in the history of music !!
I could watch this all day, so talented!
Every time I feel blue this really hits the spot. Always finish with a smile on my face. Excellent musicians loving what they do.
Have I mentioned how much I adore Chloe?
They're all fantastic, love this song 😊
Just gorgeous. Thanks Josh and Allison. So much talent. ❤️🇦🇺
The Lady on the clarinet is FANTASTIC !
That intro, I could listen to that all day.
I wish I could play a guitar like that...
This kind of music needs to make a comeback!
Pete Fountain and Benny Goodman are a smilin' down.
Indeed they are! Maybe even playing along! :}
Don't forget Fats Waller. I can just hear his little asides behind the swing.
Last night I discovered this amazing little clarinet player, turns out she used to play with Pokey Lafarge. That makes sense.
She also plays a pretty good sax.
She’s adorable
The clarinet is fantastic in this song!!
I love this music these folks are awesome keeping the 30s & 40s style swing rhythm together very Django 👌🏴
That Gibson ain't wasted on that boy and Chloe's high clarinet just the touch to grease this bad up. Top flight.
Awesome tune! Nice to hear them play. Feel like I have traveled back in time to a long-gone era.
What an awesome group. Just fine individuals. Happy to be alive at the same time. I wish them all a happy and comfortable life.
I've been fortunate to have seen Pokey twice in sunny Muncie Indiana. Outside concert. I love, love, love them and their music!! Oh, please contract Chloe again and come back to see us. We love you!!!!
Pokey, this is where I became a fan. I was in Bristol and saw you guys there.
Haven't stopped listening. You are surrounded by great musicians
Damn it Pokey! I am suppose to be putting together my playlist for working out and here I am chasing you down a youtube rabbit hole gaah
Woooooweeeeee! That is some mighty fine pickin and a'grinnin! Chloe on the C is on a whole nother plane...
I was watching a movie the other evening and was surprised to see Pokey LaFarge in it! He was very good too.
I've been looking, now I've found the band to follow. And yes beautiful clarinet, seasoned guitarist, bass, harmonica. EXCELLENT.
If there's any better feel-good music than this, I've yet to hear it! Chloe looking and sounding absolutely hot, as usual.
I could listen to this over and over, for hours on end! You All are so talented and a very tight band! Awesome, on top of incredible. Love Ya'll.
His voice just melts with the music 👍👏
This is soooo good! Pokey's facial expressions themselves are old timey
I'm on a youtube trip, letting them recommend me a whole playlist. I never do this but I'm really enjoying it. I loved this band, so cool.
Awesome ! Well done guys !
so much talent in one room
oh my God how I love this
I hope they never change their lineup. They are sort of like Bill Monroe with Lester and Earl in the band. Every musician at their peak.
They are all great, and I especially love the girl in clarinet, she wails
@TheRobertsmiles VERY hot.
Chloe Fearanzo, a legend in her own right.

I'd wail too if I were stuck in a clarinet.
I have just been BLOWN AWAY!!!
The talent here is phenomenal such great music
TJ's riffs always fit perfectly, bad boy, horn or banjo.
what a tight band! and Chloe is simply adorable....
The sassy lassie with a classy chassis!!!
I adore her.
@@etuffmen See? I told you she is adorable.

Regret is not having seen this band live. Fantastic doesn't even describe the talent/chemistry here.
This band is great and should have millions of views on this here UA-cam thingy!!!
Fabulous! Chloe... I'm in love. :)
Im first in que sonny jim.!
Back off, boy. She's an Italian princess and she's mine.
My sister sent this to me...
My sister is freak’n awesome!!!
Absolutely love it! My goodness that was fantastic!👍👍👍🦘🙏
Swingin' little band! and Chloe is just great!
Sooooooo coooool guys. You've done your homework and kept this style alive. Wonderful stuff.
Me: "Yeah, I used to play clarinet back in school."
(Listened to her play)
Me: "Nope, I used to squeak and break reeds." (walks away with my pride in my back pocket)
Absolutely, yours is the best comment on this video. Made me laugh out loud. Thanks!
Yeh. This lady cooks.
@@Tonetwisters Anyone know her name?
@@loveorama Chloe Feoranzo. Rocks, don't she?
We many been down that lonesome road. Playing in an orchestra and not readin' a note.
Oh shoot! That is fabulous! What musicianship!! Puts a smile ... T H I S ...... BIG on my old face!!
I lived in Bristol, VA a whole week, and I never knew they had live entertainment!
Pokey is better everytime i see him..
this is wrong. you can't have such talented musicians together. what about the rest of us?
This just gets better every time I listen to it!
I could listen to this forever.
Great music!!!!!! Eclectic looking, love it!
These guys put on the most fun show! So very talented...
Like a “time capsule” brilliant! My dad was a jazz musician in the 40s and I’m sure he would have approved:)
Just WOW!!! They are great!
cette musique est sidéralement agréable ! BRAVO !! un milliard de BRAVOS !
Am I the only one smitten with the clarinet player. Phew 😍
The band was great with just the four of them, but adding Cloe and TJ just adds that little bit extra.
That's how to do a slide intro, followed by how to play everything else, awesome 👍
Great stuff hey hey bring back those good old days
This music is a sure cure for a case of the blues. You just can't feel
down listening to tunes like this.

Pokey plays the rhythm section in D tuning (2 half steps down) with Capo on 2
You can play it without capo in standard tuning as well
He plays the chords very different here and there throughout the song so take everything below as a suggestion
The C#7 is just a C7 one fret higher, D7 two frets, the F is played as a cowboy chord (x3321x)
The G is played as a barree best as it allows you to play those muted hits better, some goes for the A7
Key to get the right vibe in this song is the left hand muting right after the hit
C#7 x4342x
D7 x5453x
All the solo parts and the verse have the same pattern which goes like this
F C#7 C7 F
F C#7 C7 F
D7 G7
C7 F C7
F C#7 C7 F
F A7
D7 G7 C7
F D7
G7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F
[Verse lyrics]
Sadie Green was the vamp of New Orleans
And she had more sweeties than the Navy done had Marines
Oh when she starts to shake her hips
She'd say "Captain captain, go on and sink your ships now"
If she starts to vamp oh gosh
Mama burn my mackintosh
Oh since my gal came to town
Yeah she turned every little thing right upside down
And she cried, oh boy, full of steam
What she ain't got, she just don't need
What a queen Sadie Green
She was the vamp of New Orleans
The vamp of New Orleans
I just have to type _po_ in the search bar, and UA-cam knows what I'm looking for :)
Man... I listen to Pokey all the way from Illinois to Tennessee and man was it fitting. love it!
These guys have brought me more joy than all those billionaires singing for the labels
Holy Fuck. Brilliant. I should be asleep but here I am....awake and loving every fucking second!!! Tomorrow is gonna blow...but I'm thrilled to have new music to explore while I bitch and groan about grown up life. Awesome.
A reminder, just in case your day is sucking.
Pokey Lafarge I LOVE your music! Bring back the oldies please. It is refreshing to listen to actual music. Sending you my best! Cant wait to watch you in concert.
Great group and great sound....cant stop my feet from moving..
Amazing musicians! Look what you’ve done Pokey!
So Great! Thank for the post!❤️👍🤗😎
Hairs on the back of my neck have just risen!! This is just unspeakably great...
Man an explosion at Morley's wouldn't blow a harp that hard. Glorious.
"....i prob should have kept up with my clarinet lessons..........this is GREAT!!!!!" ♫
New discovery for me, happy days
This is just Devine! Love it!
Brilliant stuff....and hats off to the sound engineer for placing the mic about half way up the clarinet, not near the bell. Fantastic fun, really lifted my spirits! xx
I love this band. Thank you Sharon Shannon for posting them on Facebook as that is first I've seen them.
Said it before, and I'mma say it again....... Good God, that is awesome.
Some hot licks. The band is truly cookin'.
BRILLIANT MUSICIANSHIP ✌
Wow what a great band .. great swing to the music .. I've got some catching up to do on these folks music ..
Awesome! Joyful, melodic, harmonious, and fun.
Hard to get much better than this. Good job.
LOVE THIS! Pokey and Chloe Feoranzo WOWZA!
Adding Chloe F. and the horn player has really spiffed up their music. I just love it. They are all soooo gooood.
Boy, that is SO good.
