Because he's black and playing the blues. When was the last time you heard B.B.King, Buddy Guy, Ben Harper, or Eric Gales on the radio. Answer: Never. The main stream media is racist and formulaic.
@johnlemon874 so what you're saying is Taylor Swift, Billie Ellish, Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, and Post Malone, just to name several, are actually ground breaking? They sound like the artist from 30-35 years ago. There hasn't been anything groundbreaking in music for decades.
@@KingKull1971 I mean yeah, they kinda all drive the modern sound. With all the digitalised stuff nowadays I highly doubt that they sound anything like peope from 30 years ago. It is groundbreaking in its own way, it never stops evolving, even if what's mainstream is more simple than it used to be.
@johnlemon874 The truth is, it does sound like 35 years ago. All the digital sounds were produced off of those original recordings. The digital replicates those sounds, and todays so-called artists use those same sounds to this very day. I actually think in many respects, there's been a devolution because of it. Hip Hop is a prime example of this devolution. Rock has devolved as well in this regard. The innovations that artists such as Hendrix, Van Halen, Malmsteen, and many others brought to the table have simply flat-lined. We have more imitators than innovators. Polyphia may be one of the few bands that's doing anything original these days. So, there's still hope.
Discovered thisbguy today after having him come up in news reel articles on my phone a few times. This is my kinda guitar playing. All feel. He doesnt sound like he's in a race against himself when he solos. Love it. Would love to play rhythm for this guy.
Just got Kingfish's LIVE IN LONDON on vinyl and this record is on the turntable and is going nowhere - but round & round and round! Kingfish and his band can do it all - blues, funk, jazz, soul, fast, slow, gentle, and hard. They play with passion, energy, and joy. This is one wonderful record.
Wonderful Christone! Hope to see you at least once on this side of the Atlantic. I'm very happy you're keeping the blues fire going for the younger generations too.
I’ve had the pure pleasure of catching Kingfish twice at the Parker in Fort Lauderdale. ( Please come back again!) He just keeps on getting better and better. Solos on this song are some of his best!! Band is fantastic and so are his vocals. He’s a virtuoso at traditional blues but when he gets into this funky hard driving stuff, this is where he truly shines!
That's seriously awesome the way those big powerful mitts manhandle that guitar. Kingfish is undoubtedly the Solo Master of all the players out there now as far as I'm concerned. There's nothing I love more than hearing Christone do his solos, and if you aren't seriously rocking the furniture by the six minute mark then I'm sorry, I just can't help you. Cheers and two huge thumbs up!!
Great video Kingfish. Thank you for releasing a live album finally. The album is fantastic. You are a very talented musician and i enjoy seeing you live and listening to your records. I look forward to hearing much more from you in the future. Keep up the great work. Stay well.👍🙏🤟
I've been listening to you for a long time. It's so awesome to hear your music on bluesville on my satellite radio. Especially when they have you on the rack of blue's. Keep jamming brother.
I still cannot believe you have not done a WORLD TOUR!!! I have been watching you since you were 14 years old. I am a huge BB King fan and to me, you are the reincarnation of the late great bluesman. Saw him live and he is the father i never had. I am 62 soon, but still as young as ever and when you finally come this side of the Atlantic, I will in the front row moving like a 14 year once more, which is the year I broke out of the church life and said, Mama, music is life! That is the blues to me. Rock on Kingfish…But over here as well, in Europe. 🙏🏽
@@jinjalord World tour in the sense that he did more than two cities in each country which he has not… Eg, London, Birmingham or Manchester or Liverpool. Paris, Marsella or Cannes Germany- Berlin, Bonn or Munich Austria-Vienna. SPAIN- Madrid, Barcelona ( Yeah, I know he did the Jazz festival in Pais Basque ) Valencia or Seville, Italy- Rome, Milan… Then there is Sweden, Norway, Denmark and more… That’s what I call a European tour! There is Japan, he is loved there. Australia and New Zealand as well. I am sure if the promotors got this going, Chris and the band would sell out clubs and sell more music through promoting the gigs. If only I was that promoter. I saw BB King in his time and other greats. It is time for Chris for sure!
Hi! The Blues live on with Kingfish! BB King once said of Slash from GNR that he had the soul of a blues man. Ditto for Kingfish. Love to hear you, Slash, Simply Red (Mike) and Teddy Swims collaborate! BBK had this rockin' blues concert at the Royal Albert Hall. We hope that you can do the same!
Kingfish is certainly one of the best bluesmen going right now. Awesome.
I WAS THERE FOR THIS GIG AND IT WAS LIFECHANGINGLY INCREDIBLE
🍻🍻🍻
So underrated! Why isn’t this playing on every radio station?!
Because he's black and playing the blues.
When was the last time you heard B.B.King, Buddy Guy, Ben Harper, or Eric Gales on the radio.
Answer:
Never.
The main stream media is racist and formulaic.
Because its nothing groundbreaking and has been done a million times and that at top of the game

His bending and vibrato make guitar screaming, it's supernatural.
The jammingest blues album in this decade!
Saludos desde Argentina
Wonderful Christone! Hope to see you at least once on this side of the Atlantic. I'm very happy you're keeping the blues fire going for the younger generations too.
AMAZING..TOP OF TOPS ❤❤❤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Lots of funk! Loving your music!
This is amazing!

I find myself swaying my shoulders to the rhythm on my own
Folks, witness the impossible! Much love, my brother Kingfish.
Unreal….. what an amazing gift!

Kingfish keep rocking it bro!!!

Excelentes músicos... acompanho desde que o King era adolescente. Quando vierem ao Brasil, serei o primeiro a comprar!
Very talented, smart young man. Great voice, really great musician..
He is probably one of the best of all time.
Excellent vibe nice work young man long love blues rock!
Absolutely awesome.....
Saw him play this tune at Winthrop Blues Ranch. "King"fish new King of the Blues!!!
About time you dropped the 'fish' bro.
I'm blown away!
Wonderful music... Top👍 Love it!!!
I would love to see Kingfish share the stage with Gary Clark JR. what a performance that would be. Two great blues players with amazing vocals..
I've been listening to you for a long time. It's so awesome to hear your music on bluesville on my satellite radio. Especially when they have you on the rack of blue's. Keep jamming brother.
He is so cool!
His fingers seem to be moving on their own!
Amazing such a talented 👏
KILLER TUNE!!!

Chistone! Dam! I’ve been a fan. However, I just ran across this video and love it!
Such superb feel, this guy is the best. That tone is on fire, too. 🤘
Yep ... That's how you do it... Awesome as usual and great keyboard as well ...
Holy shishkebab that's a lotta raw talent
I love this, too! I like all of his songs!
Hella chops for days. The touch, tone and feel of one of the greats
There are great blues players and great blues singers. Rarely do these two things come in one package. It happened with BB. I has happened again.
Toca muito 🇧🇷
Bro is killing it !!!
Untouchable ✨️✨️✨️👩💻
Thank U!!!!...🎉
He’s fantastic, beautiful lead phrasing! I honestly feel every note he’s playing!
Great Musician - Great Band!

Saw him several years ago in Lagrange, Ga. with Buddy Guy.
Maybe one of the best concerts I've seen in many years
Kingfish 2024!! 💯🙌🏽
grooveee
Nothing but pure talent wooooow 🙏
Incredible talent…mind blowing that he doesn’t have millions of followers 🤯
Brilliantly done 👏 ..
I'd real like to meet you when you come to Albuquerque Brother 👍💯
So so talanted that I think if Jimmy Hendrix was alive, would have love this guy, one of the best blueplayers I've ever heard.
I still cannot believe you have not done a WORLD TOUR!!!

He has, last year. His performance of Empty Promises in Tilburg changed my life. That Grammy is well deserved

It is time for Chris for sure!
He's like a big fish in the water swallowing all other fish. Amazing talent and goat to be.
Sweet tune...
Wonderful Funkified version
Sounds great!
