"My name is Freddie King" And then GFR shits their pants, knowing they'll have to get back on stage after Freddie. The one and only true King of the Hard Rock blues. Unsurpassed genius!
It was GFR that wanted Freddie King on tour with them!! Farner loved the guy and was a huge influence on his playing. Fact is there is a line in the the GFR song American Band referencing Freddie King!! "Up all night with Freddie King I got to tell you, poker's his thing"
Jimi Hendrix warmed up for the Monkees in my home town (at the fairgrounds) Sometimes there's no justice. But think of all the people that were enlightened by Freddie (and Jimi) because of the exposure on these goofy billings.
@@matthewhawkins6892 I was a month from turning 3 yrs old when that show happened, so I couldn't afford a ticket. But from what I've heard Jimi was well received ... expectedly blowing a lot of minds, I'm sure. (I just searched to find the date, 3/27/68, and it even shows a set list of 13 songs.)
Je connaissais peu, je redécouvre. Juste 100 kg de blues en transe sur Going Down, je me demande comment la scène s'est pas écroulé, quand on sait que 1 kg de blues pèse 1000 de nos kg.
Bullshit ! Grand Funk Railroad from Flint, Michigan rocked it !! Saw them many times live, the Blues greats too ! Times were so cool when I was in my late teens, early 29’s. I was born in Detroit in 1953. I believe we had the best music of all time, even still. “Old’s ~ Cool”
Many don't know it was the Band GFR that wanted Freddie on tour with them. They were a huge fan of Freddie, especially Mark Farner! This is a line from We're an American Band>>>>>Up all night with Freddie King, I got to tell you, poker's his thing! Appears Mr. King was a helluva poker player, and cleaned some pockets out of there cash.
Freddie is my favorite King.
VERY EXCITING
Amen
Man that cat was the best. No one comes close. Gives me goosebumps watching him.
Tenés razón...es el mejor...q bueno q allá existido un tipo así...es genial

Grande Freddie king inesquecivel a forma de tocar a guitarra com grande sentimento musico que sentia as suas raizes a tocar e a cantar os Blues.
Freddy opened for Santana on there Caravanserai tour a few months earlier.
Wow that's what you call Rockin !
Freddie just owned that, now i need to go find the rest wher he started ripping into going down slow
Freddie Was The King, So Many People copied him, Cousin Figel
3 thumbs up. I had to call a friend to borrow a thump. Jesus Christ I see where Stevie Ray gets it
Un moustro de la guitarra!!!!
No solo de la guitarra 🎸🔥...tremendo cantante ...te saludo desde Argentina 🇦🇷✌️
All due respect, I would have went home after Freddie
working all night

Is that when Jimi got boooo off the stage?

There are no kings just Freddie King 👑
No pedldles.

PEDALS, please.
The song starting at 3:21 sounds just like La Grange that ZZ Top released a year later in 1973. Hmmm.
Wat you said ..blues you can use fo sho...mercy
😎
a-mazeing.
6:06 starts the movement.

Anybody know the name of the second song he sings?
Boogie Funk.
Boogie Funk is the name!!!😂
At the very end, the song is ~ “Goin’ Down”. !
So this where ZZ top got la grange from.
nope John lee hooker and got sued for it
I got to tell ya
What was the second song?
Freddie opening for Grand Funk Railroad? Really? They not even worthy of being on the same bill as Freddie let alone headlining.
Totally agree.
And yet their biggest hit song mentions him by full name!
GFR's We're an American Band has a verse that goes
Up all night with Freddie King
I got to tell you, poker's his thing
That is absolutely correct my friend

I didnt think he was that good.
