Fabulous video, a one of a kind talent, great back up singers too. You know a lot of the great artists of subsequent decades spent hours and hours listening to this musical genius.
Perhaps they were serious in their performance because of the riot going on outside the venue. The 1960 Newport Jazz Festival was marked by riots when sold-out shows left restless people to battle it out with the police in the streets. 200 people were arrested and the National Guard was called in. The vamp in the song reminds me in parts of Nina Simone "Feelin' Good", otherwise a lot of Muddy Waters "Mannish Boy" in that.
