Walking Blues (Robert Johnson) feat. Keb' Mo' | Playing For Change | Song Around The World
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 тра 2019
- In honor of blues legend Robert Johnson's birthday, we are proud to share our latest Song Around The World, "Walking Blues," featuring Keb' Mo' along with musicians from six countries. Originally written and recorded by Son House in 1930, Robert recorded his own version in 1936. We started our version in Patagonia, Argentina with Roberto Luti and Nico Bereciartua playing slide guitars in front of a 100-year-old fig tree and with that raw performance, we added friends as we traveled to create a blues jam around the world. Blues is always from the people for the people and this video creates a moment in time to come together and put all the darkness and division we face as a human race into the music so it can set us free. Turn it up and enjoy!

It's nice to see that Mr.Robert Johnson's "Walkin Blues" have walked all over this world. Keep on sliding. Peace.🕊
Robert Johnson could never have imagined how well known his songs would be and all the pleasure the world would get from them. Bless him wherever he is now.
Well said
@@jagii8361 right. Anyway it's a great song those old blues men gifted us.
@@jagii8361 The legends are way more fun, but yes.
Oh he KNOWS...💜💜💜
I think he's buried in Greenwood, Mississippi?
It's important to keep this type of music alive.
My God, Mr. Keb I love and FEEL YOUR MUSIC! Thank you thank you, for putting a bounce in this ol ladies step. God bless u & urs !!!!!!
Incredibly innovative. Thank you, Keb Mo and all y'all.
GREAT song, and GREAT musicians! Harmonica the best!
I'm 59 years old & was raised in Mississippi. I lived on a soybean & cattle farm. I worked with black farmhands whose ancestors worked the same land as slaves. For the same family. I got to experience first hand the drinking and blues playing in old electrified slave quarters. No running water. Just power. Tin roofs that would lull you to sleep at night if it was "drizzling". My alcoholic father had thrown me out at 16 & I went to work on that farm. The old shack I lived in still had newspapers on the wall from 1913 that was used as insulation. Complete with an outhouse. Labor laws were a joke & I'm grateful for it. I lived in a house that slaves built, worked and lived in. I didn't realize it at the time because of being young but I lived in a real part of history. I took a google walk around the edges of the old place a few days ago & though it's gravel roads are gone & it's been bulldozed and lies underneath overgrowth, I can pin point the exact spot where my beautiful little home was. I became a man there & learned so much from those old, black gentlemen. I miss the crap out of it. Hard work and all.
It touches your soul doesn’t it ❤
Oh, man best comment I ever read. Thanks my brother.
Wooow thank you sooo much for telling you story! ❤
Wow that is such a rich story. Thank you for sharing

Loved every second of it!!!
Who on Earth gave this a thumbs down? What a great tribute to Robert Johnson - this is a KEEPER! Thankyou Lady and Gentlemen.
The Blues is the roots,
all the rest are the fruits!
Listening to Keb' Mo' singing about shoes is sooo convincing!
Awesome song! 🤩
Whoever did the audio engineering for this track deserves a Grammy.
i agree this is insane quality
My EXACT thoughts
Terrific job
That's the truth.
Also capable performers and good picturization!
@@glennlopez6772 all buskin pros with the man himself keb-mo :) cant beat that
What a fantastic display of musicians worldwide and the music that touches us all - no matter geographic location, culture, or language. Truly a joy.
What a brilliant way to bring people together. Not a fan of the Internet but this is one of the positives.
HOLY effin CRAP!! Just blown away like a moth in a tornado, here . . .
I am so pleased that the Blues has something for the world. I am 71 and raised on blues, blues rock, and blues bluegrass. I know that it was meant to live on!
The old professor
Clan Robertson I approve!!! I always loved the blues...I'm a beginner, playing standard 12 bar blues! ...I'm still trying to find French blues lovers... I ain't found my partners yet...Cheers from France 🤗
This got this old, 63 year old man tapping his feet. Great!
Old ???
Rhythm of life
I can hear this song 10 times in a row and still wanna start it again and again and again
It does get in you!
it sorta resonates, doesn't it.
Truly no one ever has put something like this together before wow. Totally blown away buy such a beautiful thing !!!!
ua-cam.com/video/GJtq6OmD-_Y/v-deo.html actually there are several of these.
If I had a voice as good as Keb’Mo’ I’d never stop singing.

Me too👏
Very good People, you deserve a Nobel for Peace for all the love spreading for all the web! Cheers everyone!
Agree with you. Greetings From France
Best ever! Sweden
Cheers! Excellent job, guys! From Oklahoma.
There's no way to measure the magnitude of impact Playing For Change has made on humanity, it's so damn big we can't even imagine the size and the ripple effects for decades to come. Thank You for such awesome productions, so many songs, it's refreshing, I feel like I have been given the chance to relive the 70s and 80s again. Wow!
I could not agree more well done
There are many ways to measure it. We get you like the song, but that's a ridiculous thing to say.
Auf dem Punkt gebracht....
Ihr seid Menschen die es verstehen...
Mfg Achim
Nachmachen ist ok,.......es besser zu machen und weiterentwickeln ist Kunst. Wie alles...
Es ist menschlich...
Dafür sind wir ja da.... oder???
Sound quality is off the charts!
If blues musicians ruled the world there might be hope for us all !
amen to that
Hear hear
Amazing BLUES! Loving Chris Pierce, Keb Mo' and all of the wonderful musicians. Well done, Playing for Change!

Just incredible, I cannot get over the sound production of this song let alone the beyond incredible talent. I'm in tears, the appreciation in the comments even melted my heart.
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support❤
I well up each time I watch this absolute masterpiece. So pleased I came across it...
Tears down my face...
🎉🎉🎉❤
It doesn't matter how many times I hear this . It never gets old . So much talent on one recording 👏 🙌
"It makes my heart sing" that people are keeping this old music alive, RJ inspired so many to greatness.
This just proves that music is the universal language, down south we have a saying,this will do! I do believe that this will do !!!
The. Good. Lord. Sure. Did. Bless. This. Crew. What a. Magical. Combination. Absolutely. Beautiful. Every. Detail. Love. Love. Love. It...😉😉😉😘😘😘😘
Just one more morning. Had to wake up with the blues. Pull myself out of bed. Put on my walking shoes. Keb Mo, y’all got this laced up tight.
WOW Blown away. Keb Mo...what a perfect blues voice!
Love it. Robert Johnson is proud.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🍻
Unified the world.. Blues, Robert Johnson, and music technology! Enjoyed it so much.
That's the blues I love. Just back porch. Now it's being played across cultures and countries. That's why nothing can bring people faster than music can. I love this series.
You re right, that amazing
This is a beautiful rendition of a mississippi delta blues classical. Let's keep it alive for centuries to come!
I assure you the BLUES is alive and well. Clarksdale MS streams it live nightly... even in this weird socially distant time, but please-- don’t take my word for it. Come visit Clarksdale when it’s safe! Red’s is the most authentic juke joint you’ll find
Beautiful !!!!!! Love this dont mind dying mister covid
Veronica we just had our first mini blues fest last weekend and this weekend another! The blues, uh, finds a way
listen to this:

The Gentleman has felt the blues, lived the blues and for these few minutes transferred his feelings to music that the "thumbs down" folks can never understand because it take a blues soul to interpret and feel.
Feeding your soul the good stuff, this is what blues is all about. Off the dial musicianship.
Well done to all who took the time out of their busy life’s to give us this sweet soulful music
That harmonica playing takes me on a journey through all of time!
Indeed sooo good
THat Keb' Mo' has The voice of the Blues like the ancestors ...
ThE voice, And ThE look, because he IS one of them
@Frequency Of Creation
Have you ever listened to present day African a capella singing...i.e.Zulu ...you'll love it if you have never heard it before..something " spiritual" to it..how marvelous the variety in human vocal expression... another I think Is " Black Mambazo" a group I think it's made up of of Zulu people..( all on utube of course ).It's all designed around ..."Antiphony" or a call and response..in blues 3 chord structure the first two verses repeat then the third closes with an answer. A soloist call and response...my point is that the timbre or musical color of the African peoples is so unique.. like none other . White people can do great singing also but if they even try to imitate a " black" voice its a joke. sounds real phony... but to say blues is purely a "Black" genre or whatever u want is not quite true. As far as instrumentals they ( Africans) did not come or better said brought here to America as slaves with guitars or banjos harmonicas etc.Quite possible they made their own version of a stringed instrument.. Listen closely really closely to " hillbilly type music..its blues!!...and where did the " whites " get their instruments..Some say Spaniards left there guitars here..same as in Mexico. and even in Hawaiian islands... If you read in the bible book of Psalms ( songs) for one there is a mention of stringed instruments several thousand years ago!! Kind David was known as a virtuoso harpist being a shepherd as many back then were. The African people did have a one stringed instrument some thing played like a violin with a bow...going back to Ethiopian music. Who knows? When the Queen of Sheba visited the renowned King Solomon ..he may have exchanged gifts including those " harps" that she returned to Ethiopia with......but the blacks truly " refined" the music of what we like to call blues BETTER than most..but music is a gift from God if u think about it..we naturally have our own preferences. Blues actually follows a 3 chord system which originated with black Christian Gospel....unlike much of the European influence. We're a baby nation actually and music always evolves when mixed with other peoples music. So all said..Blues is not black... it's a blend of many influences...given the introduction of musical instruments... But perhaps you already knew that.
He's good, but too smooth. No grit at all. You listen to those pre-war guys you get chills. Never happens with good old Mo'.
Its called whiskey
... I heard somebody say, just because they're dead doesn't mean they're smart...
Keb' Mo' is not merely a national, but a global treasure.
True
Sublime, envoûtant, magique,magnifique, roboratif ...de la pure musique pour de belles émotions !
Merci les mecs pour ce cadeau 🎁 !
La paix sur vous tous.
Jim depuis la Normandie en France.
C’est du blouse c’est toujours une musique envoûtante
"Playing For Change" = for me this is the best project here on UA-cam = never underestimate the power of music :)
Oh my God! Great Blues, and to see the unity of all these musicians from all over the world making this piece. And the people who mix this together. Just wow. Blown away.
I play it at least once a day. it makes me wince, grimace, smile and dance.
Some of the best music I have heard in a long time.
Standing for Peace from Italy
Soooooo cool!!!!
Playing for change, the best music compilations on the planet!!!😊🤙🤙😊
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!! Keb' Mo' be THE man! How can 1.4k idiots "thumbs down"? wtf?
I've played this song several times a day this last month. Discover layer after layer after layer .... of music, moyo, rhytm every time over again. It became my moto after being confined in hospital for too long, longing to walk out and never look back. Grateful to all musicians bringing it all together as one strong song. Bless you.
Music saves me as well... Bless you!
You and me both my friend, you and me both! 🎸💥🇺🇲🤗👍
This is the blues. This is art. This is exactly makes this earth worth living on. From Memphis Tennessee
Amen.
Oh, my God, wonderful this blues of Robert Johnson!
This is so good ___ good lord bless this musicians for giving us this piece if sheer joy. And Keb well ___ he remains one of the great bluesman EVER.
I’ve listened to this song everyday for over a year and it’s always marvelous. 😊
Think of Robert Johnson waking up into a world where people from all over are playing his music! He wouldn't have thought it could be possible, but now it is, thanks to you guys. What a great project.
Kevin Roosevelt Moore aka Keb Mo is a true blue Mississippi Delta statesman for all the great Blues guitarist that came out of that region. Saw him in Seattle in 97’ play the steel Dobro guitar and he was truly amazing.Thanks for keeping the spirit alive Keb Mo
Unbelievably great group of artists. Chris Pierce-what an awesome voice & harp playing! Thank you so much, all of you. Keb Mo is w/out peer.
Keb’ Mo’ & Chris Pierce, what great music they make & share. I could listen to them all day!
I love these all around musicians. They’re harmonizing immensely . They are wonderful.

Hello XUAN NUONG LAM how are you?
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
Strong emotional reaction for me. Universal love and unity through music.
I love Ken Mo but Chris Pierce definitely rocked his performance. Vocals and Blues Harp doesn’t get better than that.
Pure mastership of sound engineering with pure beauty of what our souls can be. Thank you.
Utter, utter genius. Thanks everyone, that's made my day.
I love this music. I never get tired of it, and am fascinated by the musicians. Please don't ever stop.

I totally agree with you 100/
Now that's a groove
Super musiciens !! Robert Johnson a été le premier King ! Merci de partager cette merveilleuse musique !
Best interpretation of this old blues standard I've heard since Paul Butterfield's Better Days album way back in the 70's
Playing for change. IS solid GOOD. My FREINDS band's NAME is Tounge and GROVE.
Y'all go check out joanne Connors version, awesome !!
@@martinmaxwell256 here it is: ua-cam.com/video/iSwoM7WIy5M/v-deo.html
And long before Butterfield was the great original songwriter here and before possibly the many others wayback..undeniably the best accoustic blues: Robert Johnson played before blues were even heard of
Or let alone recorded or on radio
And Joanna Conner is great ! Chicago loves her!
Don’t see many reference to Paul Butterfield Blues Band. The albums, especially the 60’s stuff, is required listening for blues fans. The self titled album and East West were a revelation to me in high school. I can still here “Born in Chicago” ringing in my tiny little head.
BLOODY FANTASTIC YET AGAIN JUST LOVE THESE UP LOADS !!!!!!!!!!!! MUSIC AT ITS PURE BEST FROM THE HEART/SOUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“You don’t have a soul if you can’t feel the blues”

The more I hear of all these singers & musicians from all around the world, the more I like & appreciate them & their talents. Just love to hear them. No fancy costumes or equipment, just pure talent.
Holy chit, Whoever thought this up is pure genius.
Listening here in Brazil!! Man, what a song!!!
That was THE SHIT! Robert Johnson’s legacy re-interpreted for 2022.
These combined artists are pure GENIUSES
The combination is genius,but they are the Maestro musos !
Could wake up every morning listening to this. Amazing.
Thank you, guys, you made me happy. Shalom from Tel Aviv, Israel.
Ich habe ihn einmal gehört...
... und noch einmal...
.... Und immer wieder....
Ich bin regelrecht begeistert!
Das ist der Blues....
Many, many of these collaborations are great - this one is out of this world!
Been listening to k e b for a long time have turned many people on to his music cannot believe people have not heard of this man
Keb mo that took me back to Robert Johnson with electricity flowing through his sound
This is humanity at it’s finest - people working together to create something new and special and bring joy into the world.
Y'all did R.J. justice! Awesome!
DUDES!!!! ALL TAKE A BLOODY BOW. JUST BRILLIANT..

Wonderful, I get tears when I see them and listen to them, music the universal language
I was just listening to Walkin Blues by Muddy Waters last night and I woke up to this great version! Superb! A piece of magic! 🤓👍🎵🤘🏴
Thanks from France
without playing for change the world would be even sadder. Here you can find new jewels every day... Thanks to the musicians all over the world and to all those who made it possible!
So short, I could listen to this tune and great musicians for hours
G ESK this is the first time I'm going through the whole mix - I might have to stop to go out for errands; definitely will come back to this, cause I need it today!! Love my music - and this is the universe at it's best!! Peace...
This is real blues ...
Right on !

No, boy. This ain't blues. It's an insult.
Had Matter- Robert Johnson is The Godfather of Delta Blues. Come on down to Mississippi and we will be happy to show ya!
