  • Albert King & Stevie Ray-Vaughan (R.I.P.) One of the unlikeliest partnerships but proof of what the blues is all about-Don't matter who or what you are, can you play? Their most famous collaboration was the In Session tv-show from 1983 (available complete on youtube somewhere, oh, and on CD (incomplete) as well of course). Albert King, cool as always, although he;s not smoking his pipe-and I just love SRV's look, a cross between a homeless guy from the American Depression and a Flasher. AND Paul Butterfield steps up and sings (Paul Butterfield was the first white guy to be seriously respected as a blues harmonica player and is mostly remembered for the Paul Butterfield Band (with Mike Bloomfield) in the '60s). Sad to note that all three of them passed on within five/six years from this.
    The song of course was made famous by Elmore James and has been recorded countless times by pretty much everybody. Albert King's (studio) version is on his Years Gone By album (1969) and the Years Gone By + CD has two versions, the album version and an extended mix which is even better (in my not so humble opinion)

      Me too, though I doubt it plays. I could never part with it, recorded it off Cinemax. Couldn’t count how many I watched it.

    I reckon Paul Oscher was the first white guy to be seriously respected as a blues harmonica player.

      Do you have a clue what you're talking about?This is Paul Butterfield,he was out there way before Paul Oscher!

    • @timothylewis2450

      No. Both Butterfield and Charlie Musselwhite came before Oscher. Oscher is a great musician and did impressive work with Muddy but he did not join Waters until 1967 at 17. He was Muddy’s first Caucasian band member though. All great harpists but would have to give the edge to either of the older gents over the”kid” now 70 and still playing as is Musselwhite.
