No auto tune. No young kid squealing out the scales. No mention of a liquor brand,a car brand, a clothing brand. No self aggrandizing lyrics. This is music. Just soul.
"I let the doctors be doctors, the lawyers be lawyers, the politicians be politicians. I'm a singer. That's what I do." Yes, indeed sir. Incredible video. Amazing artist. We (fans) need this version of "faithful man" to buy, download, pick up at record store day...something. I want to snuggle with it.
i first heard Mr. Fields on the episode of Suits with the song "Wish you were here" and instantly fell in love with the man behind that awesome voice i downloaded all his songs and hitting the repeat button constantly the only thing i hate is that it took me this long to find his music
wow! I just found this on the 48th Anniversary of the passing of Otis redding thank god for those that still sing like this Lee is Amazing! sounds a bit like Charles Bradley.
Just recently found Lee and Charles Bradley but the reason why I'm commenting is because I've seen you on like the past 4 videos from these guys that I've seen xD
totally glad that music like this is still bein produced nowadays. his voice is just so raw and pure, like a freshly opened bottle of wine, if you will
He reminds me of Bobby womack. It's so good to see Soul music still going strong. This is why i don't depend on the radio for real music. A small % of it is worth listening to. God bless Mr. Lee.
I was standing in a living room on 38th st in New Jersey, tripping my balls off... Alex was there, it was dead silent, he said I have something to make this right, he put this on and it absolutely changed my mood forever. Fast forward 10 years I'm currently tripping again and the first recommendation on RUclips is Lee Fields NPR tiny desk...... tell me it's a coincidence
sad enough.. good that there are still people left who buy music, it`s not just about to give the artist money, it`s more about show respect and recognition for the art! This is how it works and how it should be, at least we can be happy that we can listen and enjoy his music here on youtube :)
Kudos to the folks who write the show SUITS because they have an amazing taste in music and without them i never would have heard of lee fields. I will be forever a better person for hearing this song.
I'm sitting here trying to think of something more to say than has been said here and I find myself drawing a blank except that i'm glad I watch the show SUITS because if I hadn't seen the episode where they went back 5 years earlier I would never have heard this incredible artist. Whoever is in charge of the writing at that show, my hats off to you because this was a life changing find!
BLACK MUSIC MATTER, Sincerely Mr. Lee Fields - Mario from Germany/Berlin ./.. Heard and found for the first time today at the Film or Series 'The Doubters' in season 1, episode 3, at min. 24:45! Such great timing because she is having a child and is screaming with Mr. Lee, background vocals, for the competition! Then the labours come again, change of scene, family, friends reach the message, they celebrate ... and every time this song pops up and boards in there with force; I was moved to tears and had to find the song ... because I knew Otis, Ray Charles, Womeck or Brown it's probably not ;) ... I'm very happy to have found something so horny and now promote all of Berlin :) Masterwork, Thank YOU 🙏🏼
This man is a legend! Love most of the artist from daptone records. Can`t wait for the new Charles Bradley album coming in april this year. I also hope Sharon Jones is busy with a new album. Love them!
"..but me, i lived by the rule of if you keep the laugh inside he hurt you later. So if you got laugh, laugh out, let it go! dont hold it down. I let the doctors be doctors, the lawyers be lawyers, the politicians be politicians. I'm a singer. That's what I do." Eis o caminho, Thanks Lee!
No auto tune. No young kid squealing out the scales. No mention of a liquor brand,a car brand, a clothing brand. No self aggrandizing lyrics. This is music. Just soul.
A wise man has spoken
Just promiscuity 😂
Nough said!
Rumor is he wasn't even a singer until you came along
Wish Black Music still had this substance. ❤❤❤❤❤bring soul back. Bring humble, unrivaled talent back.
THIS MAN IS SOOO UNDERRATED
123reletive123 exactly
I am here after 8 years. To check if it holds the same feel. Indeed it does. See you in next 8 years. This is evergreen man!
It does till this day.
This is unbelievable, you can literally feel the house shaking!
I honestly cannot believe that I once could live without Lee Fields filling my room.
To whoever took the time machine back to the 60's and brought this guy from some forgotten club in Cleveland, THANK YOU!
This is a great example of less is more and he is more.
Less on the backing track and more on his powerful vocals that are right there.
he doesn't need much music. his voice is more than enough. truly soulful!
"I let the doctors be doctors, the lawyers be lawyers, the politicians be politicians. I'm a singer. That's what I do."
Yes, indeed sir. Incredible video. Amazing artist. We (fans) need this version of "faithful man" to buy, download, pick up at record store day...something. I want to snuggle with it.
Agreed.
i first heard Mr. Fields on the episode of Suits with the song "Wish you were here" and instantly fell in love with the man behind that awesome voice i downloaded all his songs and hitting the repeat button constantly the only thing i hate is that it took me this long to find his music
exactly how i discovered his music
Same!!!❤
Im a mere 20 year old boy watching this, i know i got an old soul or spirit stuck inside me trying to let out
Lee you are a soul doctor of the highest caliber!
wow! I just found this on the 48th Anniversary of the passing of Otis redding thank god for those that still sing like this Lee is Amazing! sounds a bit like Charles Bradley.
Just recently found Lee and Charles Bradley but the reason why I'm commenting is because I've seen you on like the past 4 videos from these guys that I've seen xD
AjTheGamingGuitarist that's because we both have good taste in music!
They were actually touring together some years ago, I saw them both in France. They were even playing together on few last songs, that was powerful.
@@SalWela wow i want to experience this.
You know a track/musician is great when the live version is better than the recorded one. Absolutely brilliant
I could not hit that replay button fast enough this song is golden. Lovin' it!
Lee Fields and Charles Bradley are what keeps me going
This song can touch whatever part of me it wants to.
The world needs more of this music on the RADIO, not on youtube. They need to be exposed to these amazing emotions and tracks
And now, because of you Lee, I'm a faithful woman!
That voice cuts like a hot knife through butter. Fabulous.
What. A. Legend. It is raw, it is true, it`s pure legend.
I found Lee Fields on a Sunday afternoon. Best Sunday ever,
totally glad that music like this is still bein produced nowadays. his voice is just so raw and pure, like a freshly opened bottle of wine, if you will
He reminds me of Bobby womack. It's so good to see Soul music still going strong. This is why i don't depend on the radio for real music. A small % of it is worth listening to. God bless Mr. Lee.

Saw him last night in Austin, Tx. Words cannot express...
Kudos to the folks who write the show SUITS because they have an amazing taste in music and without them i never would have heard of lee fields. I will be forever a better person for hearing this song.
Bought the record on vinyl yesterday. Even better than the last one!
Oh, I really miss this kind of music today. More artists should be like this man!
Mr. Lee Fields. Funk, soul, blues....'nuff said. Blessings
What a voice and what a guitarist
Lee Fields and The Expressions is true music that can't be denied.
His comeback is inspiring
dont you know if you feel the same, nothing will ever change.
That is what is repeating during the pauses. In case anyone hasn't heard the album.
ever be the same
What a great voice!
this is pure candy, i didnt want it to end, thank god for replay
ラジオ番組からここに到着しました。 いやぁ、参った、カッコイイ。 若かったKingJ,BとB,Womackが溶け合わさったようないい声、こぶし。知らなかった。もっと聞きます！
i feel like crying.. i'm so grateful we have him still making these songs
i couldnt wait for some videos to this album. and of course lee does not disappoint.
Heard him play live at the Roskilde festival this year! Fantastic:) This is real music :)
Saw this band in Vancouver 2017 - We love their music - Very enjoyable!
You guys blow me away! I saw you at Bumbershoot in Seattle. Very Otis and that's the best compliment I can give.
this man may have become my new favourite artist
me too. was completely blown away.
I come back to this and it's always like hearing it for the first time. So good.
I'm sitting here trying to think of something more to say than has been said here and I find myself drawing a blank except that i'm glad I watch the show SUITS because if I hadn't seen the episode where they went back 5 years earlier I would never have heard this incredible artist. Whoever is in charge of the writing at that show, my hats off to you because this was a life changing find!
Saw him last night in Ottawa, pretty great! Like going back in time.
I need this version. I've already purchased Faithful man via iTunes, so put it on iTunes, Amazon, your website... just take my money.
