Me too, I'm 72 and I love this stuff. My band even backed Taj at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach California in about 1980 or so. In fact I'm going back to Cal in a week to appear with my old band members, some of whom I haven't played with in 35 years. We will play stuff like this! It will be at Coomber's in Oceanside, CA. I wish you could be there!
Honky Tonk - I cut my teeth on this tune in the late '50's. Played my guitar till my fingers bled. Still my all time fav. Bill Dogget, Billy Butler YEAH!!!!!!
Got terrific rhythem and the lyrics are great..Everybody got the beat flowing over the airwaves..sound off music is fantastically echoing out..thank you
One of those tunes that you remember from the first time you heard it...I can picture that day it was on the radio (AM Radio)... Doggett was the first version I heard...I was thrilled into instant puberty.
BEST RECORD OF 1956,FIRST HEARD THIS IN ST VINCENT WHEN I WAS 12 AND FELL IN LOVE WITH IT.I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS GEM EVER SINCE AND I'LL BE LISTENING UNTIL I DIE.PARTS ONE AND TWO.
Real nice tribute version! Always a bit surprised at how many sax players don't come close to nailing it. I'm not an advocate for ALWAYS feeling you have to slavishly recreate every old tune note for note, but this is a classic! Clifford Scott's sax phrases deserve some respect, & get it here. Nice!
Whoa!...that's the first authentic repro I think I've ever heard of pretty much the whole thing. i don't know why people insist on doing inane improvising on what already is a masterpiece that everybody knows.
First time I saw Taj was December 1965 when he opened for the Temptations at THE TRIP on Sunset Strip in Los Angeles. I saw the Temps more than dozen times, and no show they ever did was more electric than that one at THE TRIP!
@@pak47man 😅What a coincidence! "Rumble" was the second tune I learned. I'm a huge Link Wray fan as well. I guess when you get right down to it, it's really no coincidence at all. All of us pickers love good 'ol RocknRoll.🎸👍
@@t4texastomjohnnycat978 Now that you mention it, perhaps it really isn't a coincidence. Most of what I play is still just variations on basic rockabilly and blues. I don't know if you're from Texas but that could be another coincidence. We were just in Pearland visiting my wife's family. Now in Miami with other relatives then heading home to western Massachusetts.
@@pak47man Hello👋pak47man... I grew up in the rural area (it USED to be rural) between Cypress & Tomball, but I worked in the Pearland area some when I was younger. I now live in North East Texas close to Marshall. I have never been to Massachusetts before. I've been told that it's beautiful up there. Maybe I can visit Mass before I get old & feeble.😅 It's nice to chat with a fellow picker.🎸🎻🤠👍🇺🇸
hehe...I learned to play Pipeline and Tequila from a 'Play Guitar With The Ventures' record. This was WAY back in the day, well before even Tascam 4 Track recorders, etc. I was playing a really crappy ES 335 Japanese knockoff...those were the days.
Taj opened for Tom Petty a few years ago in my town and all the youngsters around me could tell I was really gettin in to it so they wanted to know who this old man was? Taking nothing from Tom I told them he was who I came to see!!
How many Taj Mahal we have? Is Henry St. Claire Fredericks Jr. (born 1942) and Jesse Edwin Davis the same on guitar? I know only the blues band from the 70thies with Davis. 🤔
Some how it got switched to private and I just recently fixed it. If you like the video spread the love. If it gets enough views I'll post more from the same show. They did a great version of Senor Blues and having John Cleary there was a real treat!!!

the worst thing a professional band can do after being introduced on stage is to fool around with chords and pedals and mic stands and look at each other as if they all just woke up from a long nap and don't have their wits about them yet. All of those instruments should have been on stage already, pluged in and tested by the sound crew. Once the band walks out on stage someone needs to greet the audience, welcome them and make eye contact while the others do whatever needs to be done (as little as possible) before they play the first song. When the band takes 3 minutes to fool around before even saying good evening, their showing a great disrespect for their audience who paid good hard-earned money to be there.

I heard this song for the first time on my Grandma's record player. Even as a young boy, I knew it was FUNKY. Thanks Grandma.
Honky Tonk - I cut my teeth on this tune in the late '50's. Played my guitar till my fingers bled. Still my all time fav. Bill Dogget, Billy Butler YEAH!!!!!!
Jimmie Vaughan & His Band Did A Great Version Of This On His Birthday - 2021 @ Antone's In Austin...LIVE THIS TUNE!!
Love that R & B sax. Ya gotta go way back to hear that sound today.
This song is older than most people in the audience. I’m 72 and still dig it.
🎉 hoping to get that old and still Dign it... Greets from Germany
That is the sound of funky low down dirty hard core music. I love it........♥️💋
I saw Taj many years ago on a double bill with Toots and the Maytals at the Academy of Music in Philly. That was one helluva night!!!
Ooh my my sure wish I had heard and seen that Show!! Loved Toots and sure love Taj! Best music ever!!
Got terrific rhythem and the lyrics are great..Everybody got the beat flowing over the airwaves..sound off music is fantastically echoing out..thank you
I've always loved SAX & admired those who had the 'wind' to blowww.

These men are,seasoned Blues Busters,
Makes the music seems simple,
I'm Greatful to all of you,
Dueling brass is what I was looking for on covers, got it here !!!
Just simply, I love this
Taj Mahal was always great
That was Great, I went to quiet a few Taj Mahal concerts way back when I was young. Still love the music!!!! Great video!!!!
Brings back old memories I never get tired of that's why my fender plays the blues yea

.....a real toe taper 🎸🎷🎹🥁🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
The Bill Doggett classic from the 1950s. The very first thing I ever learned to play on my guitar at age of 12.🎸
Me too - at about the same age. My first confidence builder was Rumble, by Link Wray, on my Silvertone electric. I knew I could do it then.

Thanks for the Great Music Video...
A great version of a top piece of music.
That Sax man is simple wonderful with those small definitions!
Who is the sax player , he is great! Band rocks!
@@jeromehenen8256 Joe Sublett
Awesome! Can't get enough of listening the Maestro!
I saw him in a small bar in Omaha 1976. He kicked butt then too.
King Records 1956, a huge top ten hit. Nobody has ever done it better!!!!!
The sax makes this tune. Nothing away from anybody else of course.
the sax solo on the original Bill Doggett recording was done by the late great and criminally underrated Clifford Scott.
Still makes The Nation go Wild !!!
Taj is greatest!
No gimmicks-just talent
I really am enjoying the music to my soul
Flipping awesome!!!!!!
BLUES NEVER ending story of OUR generations VERY BEST PERFORMANCE, VIVA MUCHO CALIENTE.....I 'm LOVING IT......
Wow!.... Just as good as Bill Dogget.....Super Sax man
A real jewell from another time!
NICE.....
A great venue that unfortunately closed down a few years ago... Great track!!! ;^>
Espectacular la música que encuentro en youtube. Disfruto mucho la que tiene guitarra. Gracias por todo
I love the blues
Being a ole sax man, i would say this sax has gone a few miles. just folloe that keyboad. Brings back a lot of good memories.
Just realized John Cleary is on organ love this tune ...
His music always good very good.
Ah yes! My kind of stuff! Great job, ya'll!

Yes, please. Jon is touring with Taj this summer, 2020, in Europe and I want to get promoters to see this band.
If you've got more of this performance, I'd love to see it. Journeymen musicians and perfect production value!

El Blues desde que lo escuche me hencanto mas o menos tiene como 33 años que lo escuche y pues es largo de contar
Great sax!
Superb! Brad Holmes Tai Chi Gold Coast
Love that tenor.
The Dogs Bollocks just really cool.Taj always opened with this with the Phantoms, seen and heard it many times
Totally awesome 👌 😂🎉

Yea John Cleary plays Profesor Longhair's Tipatina great.
The Band have the name Phantom, but there is nothing ghostly about the way they perform. They are all the way live and on point.
Excellent version, good accurate musicianship.
Absolutely Wonderiffic !
Yea well the guy's would have probably wanted to take that back, kinda cliche don't you think? Next. Amazing group of guy's
The old bluesman ain't gone yet
Genial !!!
Great Guys , Great Video and a Thumbs Up liked.
Composed by Billy Butler, I believe. Guitarist for Doggett-long fingers-and what a tune! Made Doggett famous!
What´s in this blues-boogie that has to be composed?

Good ol' Yoshi's! Well, the sax player carried this one...Taj just going along for the ride.
They were all coming down with the flu. The sax player was the only healthy one!
Just fabulous
Very good 👍 👏 👌 😀
I love the blurs
I don’t ! It’s not nice to see blurs!
Who is that guitar player??? He is GREAT!
Johnny Lee Schell
Rythm and Blues really !!!!!
You have got to come in smokinnnnnnn!!!!!
💗💖💙💕💟
Great 12 bar sound
Bill Dogget first, then came out later by Duane Eddy, I think was the best version of all. Listen for yourself.
good version by Bill Black also
Don't forget Jimmy Smith.
Lonnie Mack had a nice version, too.
Every garage band that ever was probably tried to play this. Music is the universal language.
Are your feet tapping? Good! How could they not? It’s the kinda good groove music that washes away the bad shit!
love the Hammond b3
thats a guess.....
great dance swing ..
John Cleary is always a treat! Check out the video I just posted.

Hey There the sax is cool and sounds just like the real song. CHAR
Saw Taj many moons ago !!!!!!
Great tones all around IMHO!! ;^>
That jazz bass looks like it’s been round the world a hundred times and to hell and back now that is a real relic
anybody know who's playing the bass?
FABULEUX......................................................
Wasn't this originally done by Bill Doggett? In the days of 45RPM records, I believe it was Part 1 & Part 2.
yes bill Doggett, parts 1and2
in F
Yep, showing your age, back when the music was real,no shit🎸😁
Yes, my mom had the record...Bill Doggett.
His guitar player composed the song.
Went to UMass with Taj when he was a screaming rock and roller with his band The Electras
SnowbirdCruisers remember Taj playing out in front of the campus pond, also Buffy St. Marie, I believe....
@@larrycarr4562 yes. they were both there.
If you look at the picture on the back of his 2nd album you can see his school ring from U Mass.

you realize that you cannot play this song any other way than this.
Super
First time heard 1957.
