Merle Haggard is one of my favorite singers. And he done a great job writing and singing this song. But when I seen this, omg I fell in love with the song again
The audience looks like zombies!! You would think they would clap their hands or at least tap their feet to the beat of the music!! What the hell is wrong with those people! Bobby is "getting down"!!! I love it!!!
They are like deers in headlights, so dam good they don't know either to shit or go blind ( lol,that's what my mom would say when you are just in awe.)
I was raised on the Blues, My mom use to date Elmore James, so it was instilled in me from the time I knew anything. Lowell Fulson, Roosevelt Skyes, Little Willie John, Junior Parker, CHarles Brown, BB, Freddie, & Albert King. Lighting Hopkins, man I could go on & on. But I remember the day that she brought home "The Feeling Is Gone" By Bobby Bland. Talking about a life altering experience. I would neve be touched like that again until Jimi Hendrix & Buddy Miles. Key up this video to 6:30 to hear quite possibly is best song that he ever sung, I know from the time her recorded it, until the time he stopped touring it was always in the line up! Just listen! He's a great singer & I have many songs that I love to hear him sing. But this "The Feeling Is Gone" runs second to nothing!!!
I met Mr. Bobby Blue Bland in 1965 in Detroit Mi ,at a gig held a t a Cabaret Hall named Soul City on Joy and Beverley Rd. I was a young person trying to break off into music. At that time Mr. Bobby Blue Bland had a Revue and a Big Band just like on this post. He gave us permission to perform and he had his band back us . Man what a blessing. Since that time I have been in his presence ,he has always been a class act. I love this brother and always will. The young performers today I believe they do not have the great mentors like him that we had . R.I.P. My Brother .
Imagine if this great man had been a pianist or played guitar, he would be even more popular on the pop charts as Mr. King was....but he didn't have that to fall back on......all he had was that magnificent voice
absolutely incredible. back n the early 60's we were living in midland, texas. my mother was a waitress at the cobra club. on sundays she would stash us above the band n we'd watch the 1st set. incredible. frfr. Travis.
He sure is I was looking at unsung on News One about the life of B. Bland and decided to go to u tube and pull him up. I have been listening to him singing and performing for at least 6-hrs.He has a voice that is awesome/soothing. Now I know what I am going to do on Jan 20,2017 instead of turning on the television. My late husband took me to see him on our first date, which was so very many years ago. Love Bobby Bland, RIP
Johnny Jones was a badddddddd man. ... he played with all the greatest. .. even beat jimi Hendrix in a guitar duel (before he got famous of course).... he's the one with blonde es-335
When he sang you can feel it always down to your toes.he was just that good.i really do appreciate and love this gentleman.rest in peace Bobby blue bland.
This man's music is therapeutic. I did not like his music because the only thing I could hear was his squawk.But depression led me to just listen. It lifted me out of my depressive state and I've been loving him ever since. A true gift.
Makes me reminisce of my old neighbor and I can remember the older gentlemen sitting around on Friday and Saturdays nights smoking their cigars drinking beer, gambling and listening to this music. Those men where real men who took care of their families and protected the neighborhood.
I love the blues because my whole life been the blues y'all all. You. Blue. Guys and ladies Rip. Thank you for the. Music the. Best. Until we meet again brothers.and. Sisters
I heard all of guys as a kid..my Dad played..B.B King..Bobby Blue Bland..Diana Washington. Brook Benton..Nancy Wilson Etta James..we sang all these songs more while he tought me to cook...Rip Dad I love Daddy 😍
Thanks for posting this, good to see great singers play live. This is all musicians playing, not the today's artificial digital sounds. I appreciate this more now than back in the day.
+gateswf Do you know when this was recorded? The suits look like 50's-60's. What horns add to a show is priceless. You can get the same sampled sound from keyboards, but its a poor imitation to a real horn section.
+gateswf Ah, the Peavey amp, the guitarist is using, that's 80"s. My guess is this performance was in the late 80's. Guitar, 60's Gibson 345 with a Bigsby tail piece, hard to keep in tune but, the guy makes it cry....

Rodd Bland Peanie was from my home town in South Louisiana near Lafayette . Prance brother John is the baddest keyboard player that has never been heard .

Bobby over the years has had the best guitarist the world has ever heard . Wayne Bennett, Mel Brown , Ray Neal Jr . In my open ion Johnny Jones has the best feeling of the soft blues. Don’t get me wrong they are all legends.
Fantastic, what a talent Mr Bland was. Would have loved to have been at this gig!
Paul Allan loved you Bobby
I don't care what anybody thinks but that medley of Call It Stormy Monday/Drifting Blues is art.

I really loved that B.B. and Bobby were never rivals but were two great entertainers who were friends and worked great together...
My Parents Loved Bobby Blue Bland

I'm upset I'm just discovering Bobby blue bland this year. This is truly soul music.
I wish you could’ve seen him live.
Better to have discovered him late than not at all.
Real BLUES in the world of music 🎶 🎵 💙 👌 😪REST IN SOUL HEAVEN BOBBY BLUE BLAND 💙 🙏 ❤️

2022.
@@eshaibraheem4218 yes March 2022. This man could just sang ain t no singing in this it's sanging.
Till I die!
Bobby Bland and B. B. King sounded so great together. I have both of their live albums on CD singing together!
Bobby sings with so much feeling. I feel what he expresses to whoever's he signing to. So much. So good..
They don’t even know how to do this anymore. Lawd have mercy.
Lady Doc You got that right! Real musicians and singers have faded drastically!
He will always be the BEST BLUES SINGER ever. R I P Mr Bland.
Bobby blue bland, Otis Redding, and Donny Hathaway are the most soulful singers ever.
Some of the finest sophisticated 'uptown' jazzy kinda blues you ever are going to hear...
The Greatest Blues Singer of Ever! So glad I had a chance to sit and talk with him!
Grew up listening to him on my parents records, was lucky enough to see him in person twice!!!!
The greatest of all times. I saw in H-Town @ the Continental Show Case along with Joe Simon, Johnnie Taylor and so many others; the good ole days!!
Great singer of all times. Says your fan Marion G, Williams,
One of the greatest blues singer ever. Cry Cry Cry. RIP Bobby
The late great Lion Of Blues.
👑Rest in power King Bobby 👑
