    Absolute legend. Going to be telling my grandkids "Way back I saw Gary Clark Jr. live." And they'll say, "Wow, my grandma is so cool."

      I'm very sorry to say that will never happen. Famous music is becoming every year worse, music styles like this will slowly become lesser famous, until only people with real good music taste will know them. I'll just tell you that my classmates don't even know who Guns n Roses are ( just to make an example ). Music quality is falling down, this is soooooo bad.

    • @1missmizzy
      @1missmizzy 10 років тому +5

      I have to disagree. If you look hard enough there is an massive amount of incredible music today. They just aren't the ones that are the most famous. There are so many artists that are taking lessons and ideas from the greats of the past and learning from them and expanding on them. People today seem to always believe that music is dying now days but I totally disagree, you just have to look a bit harder and I'm ok with that. Also, not all famous music is horrible, Bruce Springsteen's album is topping the charts right now!

    I vote for a new reality show: get Gary Clark, Jr.,...Ben Harper,....Robert Randolph,...Derek Trucks, Doyle Bramhall, II, Keith Richards, John Paul Jones, Dave Grohl, Jack White, and The Black Keys up in a far away, wilderness northwest woods house for a month,...film/record everything,...and let the spirit of the Blues and real roots music pour fourth!

      They did a documentary with Jack White, Jimmy Page, and The Edge where they lived in a country house for a few weeks and jammed. At the end they had to play a gig together, it was awesome. If you put Dave Grohl in there he'd just disrupt the whole flow of things. He's said it himself that he's a control freak, he doesn't let anyone else write.

    I was lucky enough to see Richie Havens at Blissfest, near Bliss, Michigan a little less than five years ago. I have never been so blown away, laying staring at the stars while his frantic yet collected rhythms danced through the air.
    I had heard Clark's name thrown around, and had listened to him this past summer, and thoroughly enjoyed it, but had forgotten to give him a longer listen.
    Tonight shall be dedicated to these two amazing artists.

    Something about Gary goes past the song itself, like the soul of his song will always fill any room. he just always captures the mood and grabs my attention. Definitely one of the spotlight artists of this day and age

    There are very few artists who hit me like a lightning bolt when I first hear them. The first time I heard Jeff Buckley was one of those moments. When I heard Gary Clark Jr play Nextdoor Neighbour Blues on Letterman was another one of those rare moments. Can't wait to catch him live.

    • @brett6786
      @brett6786 10 років тому +2

      that might be your opinion. But i am a blues player myself, and I think he is mediocre, knows how to build a solo w stick licks w wall use. But doesn't shine,. its his look and the falsetto and lack of other commercially viable looking artists along w his relation to Texas blues artists that put him where he is,. He is not propelling blue forward, just mimicking it slightly better than the Black Keys,.Examples of better players, Robbie Krieger, Derek, Trey, Dweezil, Marc Fiord, Peter Frampton, Herring. Even jackie Green. But if you don't play guitar and not really cognizant of those licks first hand, i can understand how the evolution is not the same as mine . All of my solo sand my friends share the same aspects as his playing....same unison beds, playing the major w the minor....its all been done.....and gars who can play at that tolerance are many many,. Check out Frampton,on Midnight Special Feel Like I do..the playing is light years better,. Th either thing is great blues players have great control on vibrato, ands i don't hear that here. What i here are template songs, like in the vein of. Try Ben Harper Fight for your mind, or Will to Live Albums, or better yet his album w Innocent Criminals. the song is Woman in me, and Jah work

    • @theWGL
      @theWGL 10 років тому +4

      BEN LEVIN I think Gary Clark Jr. exemplifies well the idea that blues isn't all about complicated, mind blowing new riffs, but about the passion and power of the music. He may not be playing insanely technical pieces all the time (though i can assure you he does at times), but he's playing with a certain emotion and flavor that is pretty unique. Yeah most of us blues players can adequately play most of the classic licks GC plays, but few can play it with his level of passion and excitement and dynamics and really get the audience excited and on their feet like he can. In terms of vibrato, whether that specific technique is what makes or breaks a blues artist really comes down to personal preference. Maybe it doesn't really come through in recordings, but having just seen him play live last night (and having seen many, many other blues shows), I can tell you that this guy is one of the most passionate, electrifying players that I've ever had the pleasure of seeing on stage.

      @@brett6786 Well you must be quiet a mediocre musician yourself to judge an artist by its look and the people he knows. Gary Clark Jr is where he is right now because of himself. He started playing on a garage with its neighbour, and learned everything by himself. He is my model since I'm a kid, and the only two people who can bring me joy and tears by playing the guitar are him and Jimi. Don't say a guitarist is mediocre when he can touch so many people's feeling so deeply.
      I know your comment is 6 years old, but it pissed me off so much. Really.

    This amazing artist, is so talented.....i made music in my early 20s, gave up what was about to be a successful career for a life in the street...That didnt go to well, lol.....Jail aint fun, neither is drinking and eventually worse......Straightened my life out in my mid 30s........Thought about getting back into singing/writing, but I was under the notion it was too late, and more so, i love the blues and old music, and felt there was no way i was gonna break through in a time where music seem to lose its soul.....Not even knowing who Gary clark was, bc i stopped listening to current music....Completely oblivious that he broke through or even exsisted....then i got addicted to girls, that did go well, Until, i got married, lol, that didnt last....About 2 yrs ago im on youtube looking for old blues songs, and there he was, i was elated and facinated...I think i bought my 1st electric guitar and amp that day, then 7 more in that year, built a studio in my house and been working 12 hour days writing, and getting viscous on guitar...Now, at FORTYYYYYY almost 41, im finally doing what came most natural to me, and finally happy.....If i never saw Gary performing brigght lights, and ready when my train pull in? I wouldve never been making music today 1000000000% Now im a full time blues man.....And just about to start a blues record, do they even use that term today? lol Soon well have holigrams of our favorite artists in our living room, scaryyyyyyy! lol ROCK ON GARY!

    It's a cherry Korean made Epiphone Casino with a bigsby. There's an interview with D'Addario where he says it, and he says the guitar is all stock and his main guitar, although I think the interview was from a while back. He now has many different Casinos besides this one, including some made in Japan Elitists and a made in China 1961 reissue. He also has a 1967 Gibson ES-330, which he started using a bit fairly recently.
