- Este show é bastante especial: duas lendas do blues, tocando juntos em uma apresentação única, na Europa, na década de 1960. Imperdível : 56 minutos de puro êxtase.
The drummer is my Dad Billie Stepney Sr. Passed September 10th 1967 age 37yrs.. This was recorded Nov. 1963.
Apparently after the 22nd, as Williamson makes reference to Mrs. Kennedy.
❤
Among the best blues drummers ever.

WOW! You wrote that comment back in the 20s? AMAZING! Nobody here, now, in 2098 will believe me! Yeah, I enjoy listening music produced with this gadgets. I think they used to call them "Musical Instruments," or something like that. 😂 OF COURSE LISTENING to this Heavenly sounds in 2024!!!!!❤
+Elcy Oliveira -- I'm Slim's 1st cousin--my grandfather was his uncle, I want to thank you for posting this concert of his, I had the honor of touring with him at 6-years old performing as the front person with friends of his called The Regulators who were a Du-Whop and Gospel acapella group for about 6-months on the old "Chitlin' Trail." Sonny Boy gave me my first harmonica when I was 6-years old, I never got that good with it I was better at singing and taking pictures!
Later, after I joined the Air Force and stationed in Germany, I got to visit him in Paris and toured with him again on the last five concerts ending in France from his Middle East and European in 1973 -- this time I was there to perform just along to take pictures -- I'm a professional photographer!
I was going to visit him again when I got stationed in Sicily in late 1987, and we had it all set for when he came back from doing a gig with his old guitarist Matt Murphy; however, I was sent on a classified deployment and didn't get back till the 1st of March 1988; that's when I found out that he had caught the flu while he was in the states and he died of kidney failure on the 24th of February.
The Sicilian blues and jazz radio stations had played his music in tribute for 3-days.
About 14-years ago, I started doing a radio segment with the help of a DJ friend of mine, David Lescht, on the UNM college radio station, KUNM, called "Memphis Slim Remembered" either on or about his birthday of the 3rd of Sep. However, that ended 6-years ago when David died.
Slim was a great individual, performer, friend, and humanitarian and I truly miss him! Again, thank you so much for posting his video here!
Rev. Robert : How much honor ! His uncle was a genius of Blues and modern music. The music world owes a lot to him and his incredible group. I am flattered by your visit here on my channel and by the fantastic report you made. This is living history! Thank you very much Reverend.
This is an absolutely fantastic and rather touching story. Love it. Thanks for sharing. He was a true great of the blues and, it would seem, quite the personality, too! Thanks again for sharing this story. After all, to some of us, THESE people - and not the people you see in magazines or on MTV - are our heroes, so it's really cool to periodically hear these insider stories. Best wishes to you!!
Man u got rooots .. embrase and flourish ✨ brother , his music can carry through you .
@@lewismorgan4270 Great story.
Your relative got me really understanding the blues, I mean fully getting it. His legacy lives on, much love.
Memphis Slim is absolutely outstanding I love him ❤
It doesn't get any better than this.
Willie Dixon slappin that bass, one hell of a songwriter he was too.
seriously, he's responsible for so much of the modern electric blues songbook...
wait a min, he's not on this, is he? i'm only in as far as 3rd song
Matt Guitar Murphy was so Brilliant on his Gibson. He left us June 15, 2018 (aged 88) from a portal in Florida. Bless him.

Breath blues soul as a free soul breath blues.❤❤❤❤
Dude had chops to spare. RIP Matt "Guitar" Murphy.
He looks a little different here than that hulking badass m*therf~cking giant we saw in the "Blues Brothers" movie haha.
Thank you. I was wondering who it was.
55 minutes of the best blues music!
❤❤😅
Simple but effective. They chase each along. Nothing done wrong. Clean riffs. Nice.
A Master of his instrument and the blues was Sonny boy!
Sonny Boy... the best harmonica player of all times. Period.
sorry , my vote goes to Corky Seigal ...
@@stevengarcia877 potato, potmato? did they ever play togerther?

Matt sure could play that guitar. Living in Florida back in the day saw him many times, often in some very small venues. Matt was a really good dude who would chat with you between sets, had showed of patience for young and often inebriated fans.
What other genre of music express live's experiences better than the
Blues & Country music? Love, Hope, Heartache, Disappointments, Failures, Joy and Happiness. Two of the best artists ever. Thanks for posting.
Don't foget about folk music.
A true, true gem of da Blues, and superior musicianship....Thank you God for the musicians, allowing me to live in this short frame of time.lemme play my harmonica now n blow my lungs inside out.
Good, very good.
And still listening in 2024,pittsburg ca,
Brilliant, incredible musicianship with heaps of soul and story telling. Real music
Real music compared to the garbage they play on the radio with trashy lyrics and cookie cutter sound.
The great Memphis Slim combined the rough primitive blues and the traditional boogie-woogie piano, together with an elegant and light and sophisticated Jazzy feel. Matt Gitar Murphy was also a true giant of the blues. Combine these two with the unique blues harp of Sonny Boy Williamson (the second), which is as deeply expressive and as emotional as any singer's voice, and you get a set which is elegant and subdued, but with a deep blue feeling.
I llove
Nobody can play Sonny Boy Williams ..... Nobody. RIP
NOBODY
@sonjadietz5297 -- Sonny and Papa John Creech gave me my first harmonicas on my 7th birthday!
Crowd should be giving Sonny, a standing ovation
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
@@jamesdavis1201 yes :))

It's the old saying... you dont know what got till its gone...
@markkennard861 yes indeed 🗽
So cool man Mat Guitar Murphy (as in the Blues Brothers)
This is a blissful gift, if there's a God, he/she sent it.... thankyou very much.
Jesus is a man.
His blood has been double-blind tested in an Israeli lab.
Human blood. Instead of 46 chromosomes, it has all female DNA strand of 23 and ONE X masculine chromosome.
God made Man in His image. From the man, he took a rib and made Woman.
Jesus is God. While earth-bound, he was subject to ALL temptations common to human MEN, including female attraction. He could not sin, but He was tempted in every way, including by women.
Just so we're clear, God is a man in spirit, in resurrected flesh and in transcendence of the weaker vessel.
Eve was decieved. Adam chose.
Brilliant, still sounds so fresh and alive.
This music is coming from the soul!! Blues the Best!!
A soul this has! Today's music does not sadly.
I saw Memphis Slim!!! Such an impressive artist , I remember his long fingers and I'm glad to see them again in this video!!
This is music played by musicians...plain and simple. Great stuff
Our world would be a better place if we could get back to all music sounding more like this!
Thank you , this is great
Too cool. I'd have loved to be there.
The very best of the best .

The most beautiful & important music. “Los Blues”. A great experience- for better or worse. When Memphis Slim/Sonny Boy 2 sing & play? A most cool joyride fo sho.Love Matt Murphy. ❤️
I wanted to leave my wife and sit in a bar drinking whiskey to this song...!)))) Bravo
Take your wife with you and have more than one! Drink that is.
Hands down Best harpist ever, no amplification necessary.
I love Sonny Boy Williamson, but Little Walter is the harmonica GOAT.
@@heroiskenderbe5666 Walter was a son of the harp, Sonny was the dad
@@Alkholikhash yes, totally agree with you, but....the son became the GOAT!
Stupid comment...there are no GOATS in music...just geniuses.
Matt Murphy à écouter encore et encore !

Very interesting and productive merging of related musical forms. Boogie-woogie, straight blues with jazz flavor.
These guys are awesome. So we'll considered, professional, and downright funky.

Blues is Black music with heart and soul that White lack. Peace. ✌
2 lendas, Sony Boy é único.
:very nice
My favourite song from my favourite harp player. This was absolutely the one that was my target as a player myself. I thought if I could nail that solo, I could call myself a blues player. I was truly thrilled listening to your version. Note perfect with a wonderful sound but it was the feel that you were channelling that sent shivers up my spine. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
❤
Great to see as well as hear these great artists. A real treat.

Sonny Boy's overblows on this version of Keep it to Yourself are insane. i know he played a 12 hole but i'm amazed those sounds are possible.

Matt "guitar" Murphy playing. Great stuff!
Thanks I was wondering who he was. Now that you mention it, this is a great one of his and Sonny Boy's: ua-cam.com/video/4bY0vcg2F-I/v-deo.html
In the credits I didn't know who Matt Murphy was.
I do know who Guitar Murphy is though.
Thanks for the help!
Cara, isso é música MESMO! A raiz do blues. Obrigado por compartilhar essa riqueza!
Um prazer compartilhar essa pérola com vcs Mário !!!
Thank you very very much for sharing this. This is one of my favorite video of music on UA-cam! Grazie mille dall' Italia!!
its like another dimension, compare to modern music
Jazz that l like!
🤝
Espectacular .
DAMN FINE TUNES!
Willie's hands must have been strong enough to crush coconuts. And how is it European TV was so much more appreciative of Black American music? You wouldn't find this among the 3 networks' swill offerings in the 60s.
The British were, at that time Class Bigots, not racists, as in America.
Matt Guitar Murphy!!!!!
Yeahhhhhh !!!!
top Blues man❤
Greatest harmonica player I ever heard.
No wordzs needd,just pure wardzs
bbbye bye bird. pure virtuosity
3:05 looks like Mat Murphy from the Blues Brothers
some blues greats here,never better
In memory of Verycoolguy >.
just doesn't sound the same without the sound effects/Stone Cold Steve Austin audio :
Just plain awesome.
Esse Sonny Boy é um absurdo, simplesmente fantástico.
Sem dúvida ! Um gênio !!!
sensacional
I have photo of my Mum with Slims arms around her.They where on tour of England with Champion Jack Dupree.
