They Call It Stormy Monday (color, c1967)
Thank you to all of you who spoke about this very special man that I get the privilege to call Daddy. He was a superb musician and a true man in the love of his family. As I read your comments, I smiled, and I cried thanking you for honoring my special memories of my Daddy, T-Bone Walker.!!! God bless each of you and thank you again for recognizing his genius!!!
Don’t remember your dear old dad but I do remember seeing the Allman Bros and hearing them say they this is an old T bone walker song before breaking into Stormy Monday which others have also covered. He definitely knew how to sing the blues and his guitar work was ahead of its time. Glad to hear that he was a loving g family man as well. God bless and Merry Christmas ❤
The videos on you tube of your father allow us to see him perform. Thank you for writing.
@@georgefinn2054 Thank you so much. Blessings of Peace and goodwill to you!!!
Merry Christmas and happy new year to you Ms Walker. His music inspires me to be the best I can. He had so much style in his music!!!
@@RavnerRavner Thank you Ravner for your greetings, wishes and the encouragement he gives you. Truly I do understand as I also am inspired by him to be the best that I can be. Let no one stop you!!!
Bone's slow blues are a study in the plasticity of time.He used time as a malleable material that he could bend and stretch like a sculptor, uncovering a labyrinth of ever morphing grooves. T-Bone was a master of pure swing and faultless feel.
Wow, you need to write a book.
THE MAN WAS BORN IN THE POCKET, BLUES FLOWED THROUGH HIS VEINS. NONE BETTER FOR MY MONEY
Albert Einstein came to the same conclusions about time, both T Bone and him were right!
I know what you are talking about. He plays on the beat, then behind the beat, then picks it back up. Such an amazing effect
All the masters like playing catch-up cheers
He was a real autentic Bluesman not comparable with the many clowns of today. His guitar playing always full of soul and from the Heart 😊
lol I watched a few minutes of the Howlin Wolf tribute a few years back. I felt like a total cliche watching the guitarists who came to perform and pay tribute, because I resembled a bit all of them, and they were all playing their best blues lawyer licks. Their best impression of a real blues guitarist.
I’ve always wanted to be a blues guy, but I’m just into Hendrix. I also wanted to be a jazz guy but I just can’t get into the music 😂
DAMN…..YOU COOKED WITH THE TRUTH ABOUT ALL THE BLUES CLOWNS OF TODAY!!! ZERO FEEL AT ALL!!!! THEY DIDNT GET ENOUGH WHIPPINGS WHEN THEY WAS KIDS BECAUSE YOU GOTTA GET WHIPPED IN THE WOODSHED TO FEEL THESE REAL BLUES
Such a well-behaved audience-they just don’t deserve the great T-Bone Walker.
nary a note to many, or too few, all dead on perfect, guitar and vocal. right in-between the jazz and the blues. how DO he do that, man?
...just being T-BONE :-)
yeah. I ve heard many greats. but i've never heard anyone who played and sang every note, every time, not perfect , but just right. every time. And i am one critical mofo. I'll find something wrong even with a sunny day, especially if they serve up some watered down blues, or some gringo oriented mexican food food trying to pose as the really deally "comidas autenticos". he is amazing. Thanks for this vato. It's a great way to start any day. I learn and take notes and try to get that level of perfection and soul in my playing by playing along , over and over to Stormy Monday.
So easy
right there between Jazz and Blues- the only Big Band blues player I really enjoy 🤓
A true Blues Master , pure and simple.
This RULES-
What a musical animal, I am in shock ... what a way to play the guitar ... he was a MONSTER in the best sense ... From now on I will start listening to him more ... What a great musician ...
This is how you play the BLUES man.
Willie Dixon and T-Bone on the stage at the same. With Willie singing, what more could you ask for
Starting in big band era, guitar had no value standing in the back , T Bone came right out front to be the legend guitarist . I have been known to go into a T-bone mode that lasted for days. That's just how good he is.
T Bone was the best!!
the very inventor of everything that was ever cool in pop/rock music. and would you just look at his wild ass half-cherokee face!
T - Bone Walker put the SWING in the Blues - His guitar playing alone is worth it - Then throw in HIS singing and song writing and you have a great man !
Love the physical positioning of his guitar. I've never seen anyone strap their guitar flat like that
Sometimes he looks a lot like he's playing a square neck Dobro.
He must have lost the endpin to his guitar as he has the strap tied to the tailpiece
Jeff Healey, I think, and not sure about how his last name is spelled. Plays like that sitting down. But he’s blind so probably less of an artistic decision and more an adaptation
Thank you to all who spoke about this very special man that I get the privilege to call Daddy. As I read your comments I cried and smiled. Thank you for honoring my special remembrances of my Daddy, Aaron T-Bone Walker.
Walker played the guitar like that for purely acoustic reasons. Those old Gibsons vibrated differently when held up against the body in the traditional sense. When played the way T-Bone is holding it both the top of the guitar and the back vibrate louder and you can get an even more pure sound.
Plus it looks cool as hell!!?
He played flawless. You can tell he was a perfectionist. Putting the swing in plus the way he held his guitar and could change up like it was nothing. Way ahead of his time. The way he dressed, his band , everything first class. I'm 71 and started looking on my rock and roll albums in the 60s at who wrote the song. Then I'd go to the record store and buy the original black blues men. Vinyl was so cheap I ended up with over 500 and growing up in New Orleans there were plenty record outlets. Cool old stores I can still remember, in fact I can remember the smell of those old buildings combined with the smell of the vinyl covers. I was buying 45s at 13, then I went nuts. I saw a TV as a child but once I got into my teens, I seldom look at television because I was always playing music. It made it easy for me to throw my TV away over 15 years ago.
Brilliant is this i love it so beautifull ,woh real great,
👏🏿👏🏿🔥👍🏾🎼
Hi Cora, I don't know if you've heard of Christone ( Kingfish) Ingram, check him out on UA-cam, brilliant young blues guitarist, I think he's 22 years old now, you won't be disappointed 👍🏾
I wish this was 2 hours long.11:19 14:45 Stormy Monday
No se me ocurre un guitarrista de blues más influyente y pionero que T-Bone Walker. ¡Y aquí se deja ver bien claro el por qué!
He plays with his whole body, including his face. He puts everything he’s got into every note. First time I’ve heard or seen him play, although I’ve to others sing his songs for years.
“You’re gonna be a Rolling Stone.” Thus inspiring Brian Jones. 😎
T bone was a great rhythm player too.
Pioneer
Удивительное исполнение. Просто бесподобно!!!!
For those still into physical media, track down the triple CD “The Complete Capitol / Black and White Recordings” and the double CD “The Complete Imperial Recordings 1950 - 1954” and the single CD “T-Bone Blues”.
Yep
Ok, but not Bone at his best. For that see, Rare T-Bone and some recordings w/better fidelity. Early stuff wonderful but woeful taping back then by tin-ear productions oftentimes.
Bro mastered playing steel guitar style from his hip
Exactly!!!
that’s insane, sometimes when I start getting into something I start doing the same thing but then realize my fingers can reach the top 2 or 3 strings 😭
Smooth in kool blue
7:00 Willie Dixon on upright bass and singing!
Dizzy in the horn section!
Greatest !
Yesss!
One of my blues heroes rip t bone walker
Thank you.
the man is amazing love it
🤗❤️👍🏽
Wow blow my mind . Truly something else .this man's level of talent at another level filling up my heart with joy.
the King of the Swing Blues...
legendary show
Which One? It was several gigs
That lick at 5:30 is smoking. 🔥
Bless you 😃 for this uploading . Nobody like him., thanks
One and only!
Great performance
at 13 ta see the greatest bass player of all time ! The best of the best Willie Dixon !
Yeah ! Lovin it !
T-Bone doesn't get nearly enough credit. He's at the root of pretty much all blues and lots of rock guitar soloing. And he was in his prime right till the end, unlike most of his peers. He just didn't fit into what white folk mostly wanted to hear during this time period, which was either acoustic "country blues" by rediscovered artists, many of whom were barely able to play, or the harder edged Chicago stuff that eventually morphed into Hendrix and metal and all the rest of it. But you trace things back far enough and there's T-Bone Walker, doing his jazzy thing consistently well decade after decade since before Blind Lemon Jefferson died. I mean, his voice is even better than his guitar, and nobody ever mentions that! One of the key figures in American musical history if you ask me. Plus he sold a whole lotta records back in his time, unlike most of the Chicago guys not named Little Walter.
Une virtuose de la guitare et une voix bluesy envoûtante.
" ... wow T-Bone life ... "
Brilliant!!
Absolutely fabulous shit, it simply does not get any better than T-Bone at the top of his game! Thanks a million for this. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for posting this! T-bones the man.
Yep my dad wrote a few of his songs now at age 54 I'm loving it ✊✌️
El blues es la música por excelencia y Walker es un show man
Bone had it going on…
T-Bone Walker very good AFBF
Play it T Bone❤❤❤
Straordinaria...benedizione 2024
The best blues guitar player ever bar none.
I think you are correct, in that most of his music is in the swing tradition, not just blues, and his voice and guitar sound are exceptional. I have been looking for great blues players, and oddly many are from the blue eyed soul tradition.
Thank you so much for this amazing upload! Noone did it like T-bone did it
Chills.
Fabulous! T-Bone is timeless, thanks for posting this.
me gusta el blues creo es un género importante y hermoso, no conozco mucho, tantos musicos extraordinarios como este guitarrista, yo conoci su musica por la canción de chuck berry, me preguntaba si era de el y ahi descubri a quien para mí es uno de los mejores musicos de la historia
T-Bone and Memphis Slim bye good
Saw the great Memphis when I was 18 impressed by his music, his kindness and remembered his height and particularly his very long fingers! Thought he came from the US to my town in France but finally he still was living in Paris!😄
More T bone on that mix
Tボーンのブルースめっちゃ好き✨
brilliant 🎸🎸🎸
Thank you u tube...DOES anyone have a live clip of ELMORE JAMES?
Omg Thanks For Sharing My Father Wrote Song's For This Man✊✌️
Incrível
B.B. King - Chuck Berry - Jimi Hendrix - all come from T - Bone Walker - -
Stewe Miller kijelentette, hogy 1952-ben Walker megtanította neki, hogyan kell gitározni a háta mögött, és a fogaival is. Walker egy Igazi őstehetség volt a kezdet kezdetén az elektromos Blues elterjedésében a világon, és technikai megoldásában. Gazdagabbak lettünk egy hatalmas élménnyel. köszönöm!
Thanks for posting this... great stuff!
In turn TBone draws directly from Charlie Christian, where jazz guitar is measured as before Charlie, playing Charlie and after Charlie; that’s it.
Unusual way of holding a guitar.
Actually, the CORRECT way
@@joshysavage37 How is he doing it? I cant see his left hand putting much pressure under the neck to keep it flat
@@blakenorman4822 i think hes talking about the way the guitar is rested on his body. Its facing upwards mostly instead of facing us
WICKED ! 😎
Great stuff if you listen close you here a lot of his style in the music of those who have come and some that have gone after. If it's good pick it up and Carey it on.
BB Kings idol.
The root of Stevie Ray Vaughn.
This guy was a picker rather than a player. Buddy Guy described guys that were really great guitar players and he described T-Bone. The guy was almost Nat King Cole playing blues
not exactly. NKC could play classical music and swing that, too. check out his rachmaninoff c# on the trio albums. but that's no slur on tbone walker, who did create a lot of great stuff in his own way
What a find!
People. both subscribers and channel owner(s), Read this... You are badasses, and like me, wondering, roaming, living, and, sometimes busting our asses out, to keep free from Music Inc., at least me, for sure. And one of the many reasons for Us, doods, to be like free birds, legit people, may be in the subtle detail, about mental faculties (God´s ultimate gifts, no doubt). We are different. At the most, younger than 35 years old, ( I´m 40), are really hard to let been touched by the true blues man... They just don´t get it... they get bored, man, can you belive it? When I was at the age of 8, my beloved mom bought me a music magazine, and the main subject was about the blues genre and blues legends, with a bonus CD with 11 songs featuring some old world tunes by the claimed to be, "Blues Legends". I still have this cd, and still feel it man, deep in me, I feel it, I naturally understand it, and so, is high valued for myself. When I finally get to play it decently in my guitar, I could aprecciate it even more. Nowadays, youger people (not generally, but IT IS hard to find one, able to feel and enjoy it) can not feel the shining boldness and the solidity that the blues carries. Their minds, or have been, by "something", not only blocked, but kept locked, and denied to feel it or aknowledge it properlly, therefore, ends been rejected, forgotten. The TRUTH is that is naturally compatible with TRUTH people. Honestly and respectly, I will keep it, playing and listening, admiring and inspired, by such gift that, surely will and, still works on me. Today, I hope that not only US, but whoever have the luck, may give, even if looks nothing, a strong and firm step, straight ahead to "the blues touch". Let it help you on this shitty life they insist on us to volunteering cave and be slaved. Try to feel, then these links between the real blues played and the emotions that can make us feel, will help educate on refining and reconsider whenever the need calls it to be done for the truth inside you people. Stay fine, and, YES, you can handle it, if born under a bad sign!
The blueprint for Chuck berry
Berry was a poor cover him.
When my dad was inducted into the rock ‘n’ roll, Hall of Fame, I went back to receive his trophy. Chuck Berry grabbed me when I came off of the stage and took me a few feet away and said to me, “baby, your daddy was the greatest entertainer that ever lived and everything I do, I got from him”.
epic
It’s a shame these guys were never valued in their own country , it’s only when these older blues players came europe that they were filmed
That's My Late UNCLE Thaddeus💥😎🎸👍💥
No it’s not
Alla this yapping about his guitar playing...he's a damn blues singer!
He was obviously both.
He was a fantastic artist and a phenomenal man as well as a great Father.
best
Wish I could see what’s he’s playing. He’s holding his guitar like he doesn’t want the crowd to see.
I don't know the exact model but it was a Gibson. The model is now extinct. We did approach them about making it again but were told the mold was no longer available. He did not like the small models that are in use now as the sound was not liked by his ears!!!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for posting. LOVE T BONE! Does anyone know who the pianist was in Stormy Monday?
probably willy dixon?
@@songsinahurry7538 Willie Dixon was the bassist.
Could be Memphis Slim
@@key2highway It is!
Memphis Slim !
Is that an Epiphone Emperor? I'm returning mine to the seller. It don't sound like that.
😄
Gibson ES-5.
👍
AGUAHHHHH
I wonder what became of T-Bone's guitars? Did he have any children?
His last guitar is in the Rock’n Roll Hall Of Fame on display. I can remember him only having one at a time, The blond one you see in the clips was stolen in Paris France while on tour off of the stage. There were two children, his Son transitioned in 1998, I am his Daughter.
Kenny Salmon Quintet!
They swung hard.
Does anyone know who the backing band are on the BBC segment?
Dizzy Gillespie and band.
I bet angus young could wake this one up yall😂😂😂❤❤❤
life is a real bitche sometimes but it always worth to live it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💋💋💋
ごきげん なのは まちがいない。
In addition to being lead-boy for Blind Lemon, Bone began show career as DANCER in Tiny Bradshaw, often bringing house down w/trademark schtick of clamping table in teeth and swinging in circles. Legendary guitar only began stint as ballad crooner, but always prodded into closing whatever show (other performers loathe to follow). But perhaps most surprising fact from autobio of Basie, is T-Bone offered chair in Basie unit. Equally amazing, if not moreso, is Freddy Green was down with Bone in band. But turned down by T-Bone. Hardly needing mention that cats DREAM of Basie unit being capstone of career…almost unfathomable.
Wow the world knows that
I wonder why he holds the guitar like that, it looks like it would be harder and more uncomfortable to play
Because that was his style! I'm sure he was pretty used to it since he always played that way
I’m his daughter and I was told at an early age that he played a steel guitar so he preferred a flatten instrument. Have a blessed day!!!
Do you still think the king was elvis lol yeah right😂😂😂❤❤❤
Dont let led zepplin do this one lol 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Music was changed due to t bones attempt, style and how he played blues with jazz on stage!
He plays with his whole body, including his face. He puts everything he’s got into every note. First time I’ve heard or seen him play, although I’ve to others sing his songs for years.
