Here's my take on them: (spoken) I was in love once, and I didn't believe nothin; could ever break my heart, especially the lady I was in love with. I thought this would never happen, but it finally did. That's why I wanna tell you people that love is like a hammer and it can break the hardest heart alive. (sung) Love is like a hammer and it can break the hardest heart alive. Yes, love is just like a hammer, and it can break the hardest heart alive. You broke my heart again baby, woman, and I'm tired of your jive. When you love me darlin', it was so hard to understand. Yes, when you love me baby, it's so hard for me to understand. You oughta be ashamed, woman. Oh, like throwing water on a drownin' man. (solos) I didn't believe you were leavin' and I would be sittin' home all alone. Oh, I wouldn't believe, I wouldn't believe you were leavin' and I'd be sittin' home and all alone. And I know it's true baby, 'cause I'm countin' the days that you're gone. Love is just like a hammer, people, it can break the hardest heart alive. Yes, love is just like a hammer, and it can break the hardest heart alive. You broke my heart again woman, baby, I'm tired of your jive.
Hello Red Gray Matter. I like your channel, but an ad in the middle of the song is a NO GO! I've got nothing against ads before and after. You can adjust that and I hope you do, otherwise people like me will consider to unsub and leave. I tried it twice and it happened again. Please change this annoying mode. Thanks
I was playing Roscoe Chenier's music 20 years ago on my Blues radio show. It does my old heart nothing but good to see it's still out there. This is rip your guts out, real Blues, the kind you can only do when you find that dark place deep, down inside. It's called Blues Power.
Thank You Red, True Blues, “ Love is Like a Hammer “ how many times does that Hammer fall. 😎🥲😎🥲😎 👏💯😎🥰 The music driving that message home in unison . Bravo 😎👏
Меня по молодости не очень трогал этот жанр, а вот после 60 прямо на душу ложится. Блюз -- это грустное и печальное исповедание души человека. И хотя блюз считается чисто американским видом музыки, но русская душа улавливает в нем и что-то своё. Видимо, правы те, кто утверждает, что блюз -- это состояние души.
Что , и Pink Floyd не трогал по молодости ? У них элементы блюза были ! Вообще блюз где только не слушают - и в Бангладешь, и в Египте , и в Таиланде , не говоря уже за Европу ! «Загадочная русская душа» тут совсем не в одиночестве
Согласна с Вами, к блюзу нужно прийти, и это происходит с возрастом. К нему нужно дорасти, душа должна созреть, что-ли. Я с Украины. Слушаю и думаю, как же я раньше этого не понимала, а ведь меня пытался приобщить мой старший брат, а я никак... Слушала поп, рок, а блюз не понимала. А сейчас слушаю только его, а братика уже нет....
About, Guitarist/singer Roscoe Chenier was born November 6, 1941 in the hamlet of Notleyville, just east of Opelousas. Though his family of sharecroppers was poor in material posses-sions, it was musically rich in talent. Related to both zydeco demigod, Clifton Chenier, and bluesman Morris ‘Big’ Chenier, his father Arthur ‘Bud’ Chenier was his main inspiration. Bud, a cajun accordionist, accompanied by his first cousin and fiddler John Stevens, the father of Duke Stevens, was widly popular, as he often would entertain at weekend house parties. “As a youngster, I’d just soak up the music”, Roscoe said. His vocal gift manifested itself early, as he was invited in 1958 to join one of the hottest traveling bands in the territory; C.D and the Blue Runners, which featured three Gradnier brothers on harmonica, drums and bass and Lonesome Sundown on lead guitar. Roscoe remained with CD for over a dozen years, until 1970 and despite the British Invasion, still managed to find enough work to keep the blues alive. Things in the black com- munity changed and it was difficult earning a living, especially when the gigs were paying $6 per man per night. And, Roscoe began a succession for day jobs as a truck driver in order to make ends meet. In the 70’s Roscoe led a rather peripatetic existence as a bluesman, drifting from band to band, finding gigs catch as catch can. for a year and a half, he served with Good Rockin’ Thomas and thereafter a hitch with Good Rockin’ Bob. Often he was a “hired gun” for artists like Lonesome Sundown and Clarence Randle. The final chapter of this itinerant period of Roscoe’s life was a three year stretch with local horn man Duke Stevens, who like Charles Tyler, also had a hit on Lee Lavergne’s Lanor label in the 60’s “I’ve been your fool.” By 1980, Roscoe finally was his own man, leading his own band, shaped in his image. During the years he had some great players in his band and allthough some of them “retired” Roscoe always managed to attract capable replacements. Since that date, it’s been a long hard struggle to remain financially independent. And he’s tried various means, including recording, to jump start his career. Roscoe Chenier and his band appeared at the Blues Estafette in 1992, 1993, 1996, 1998 and 2001. He also performed at the very prestigous North Sea Jazz Festival in the Hague. Roscoe Chenier toured Europe regularly and performed on several major blues festivals. Roscoe’s last two releases are “Roscoe Style” (1998) and “Waiting For My Tomorrow” (2006).
What a great Classic Blues tune! It promptly took my mind on an 11:19 min vacation somewhere delightful because I have know idea where I went. I so love these Classic Whiskey Blues Longs! Thanks so much RGM!
Hi Red Grey. Absolutely sensational. Zapped me right out of my shoes. Intro. awesome, vocals instruments, just about everything nice and classy. Many thanks for posting. Stay 😎 cool. AC.
Действительно, если полюбишь блюз по настоящему, назад дороги нет вся остальная музыка заметно меркнет. Единственный недостаток блюза, это тоска, уныние, печаль... НО ОНО ТОГО СТОИТ!!!!! Просто перед глазами и в души пленка перематывается назад, и ты понимаешь, что ничего не вернуть....
A PSEUDO TRISTEZA, ESTÁ NA MENTE!" O BLUES É COMO UM BLUESMAN, UM ESTILO DE SER E DE VER TUDO E TODOS!" ❤ O BLUES E COM MUITA😂😅😊 DE OUVIR LETRAS E ARRANJOS MUSICAIS COMPLEXOS E REPLETOS DE PROFUNDOS SENTIMENTOS DE ALEGRIA E PRAZER!".
I will appreciate some help with transcribing the lyrics. Thanks

Мне 66 лет. Всю жизнь слушаю рок,а для души блюз. Появились молодые исполнители ,которые исполняют блюз не хуже старых.
I am 77 years old and this never gets old.
You are same me 🎉😊

Thank You Red,
True Blues,
“ Love is Like a Hammer “
how many times does that
Hammer fall. 😎🥲😎🥲😎
👏💯😎🥰
The music driving that message home
in unison . Bravo 😎👏
Это, бесспорно, очень ТАЛАНТЛИВО. Блюз - боль, блюз - крик, блюз - сожаление...когда уходит любовь.
Спасибо за ещё один брильянт в коллекцию 👏👏👏
Прекрасно, блюз - это океан чувств, страстей, любви...
Wonderful blues. Thanks for sharing
What a transition from soundlikey "Shine on you Crazy Diamond" to Bluesy dreamscape. Sumptuous - thanks!

Блюз это когда хорошему человеку плохо....
С.Есенин самый блюзовый русский поэт.
@@Gultuk люблю Есенина , спасибо отцу
Но плохо бывает утром, когда с вечера было хорошо
Согласна с Вами, к блюзу нужно прийти, и это происходит с возрастом. К нему нужно дорасти, душа должна созреть, что-ли. Я с Украины.

Оскара послушай лучше!!!
Даже лучше,что слушаю в пятницу...ведь пятница и блюз-состояние души!!! Классное сочетание!!!
Попадаешь в мир блюза и невозможно вырваться хочется еще и снова и опять слушать и балдеть.Я из Украины и мне 73
Bienvenue, de France!.
It is True , The blues is incredible
Long life Iryna! Greetings from Spain! 🍀🙋🏻♂️
