I have Robert Johnson's entire catalog on cassette tapes. Yeah, I said it: CASSETTE TAPES! That's right, I'm an old guy. When my middle son was an infant with a painful hernia waiting in the hospital for his operation, I got him to sleep singing Robert Johnson's Love In Vain while rocking him back and forth gently. He grew up fascinated by trains.
Sounds awesome. I can listen to this over and over and over again. Beautiful played. I feel the blues all the way deep in my soul. Yeah, keep up the great awesome performance. Thank you. 😊
So good. I love listening to some down home gutbucket blues and you know how to capture it. You are the real deal and I glad I found your channel. Thanks.
Hey Mr. Phillips. I know it aint news - but you are one bad mother hush your mouth on both singing and playing. Good God almighty Im so glad theres guys like you still playing like the music just came out of the oven and isnt 70 years old. You take some of those old rattle trap blues songs and make them into something fresh without missing a beat. Hats off to you - (and Roy Harper - if you do that one...)
That was a fantastic set Edward! Listening to all of those RJ tunes, it's amazing how many famous bands have done versions of so many of them! 👍👍🎸🎸👏👏🎤🎤
Eres de lo mejor mi cuate, Gran aprendiz, maestro y genio del blues tú. Me gusta tu estilo y como respetas el trabajo de los grandes de blues como Robert Johnson. Soy mexicano, vivo en Chile Pero amo el blues con toda el alma. Saludos y gracias por tus videos!!!! ❤❤❤
Man your a bad man, I've known this for quite some time. Couple years, but new eyes listening this mornin... Absolutely brilliant, checking not some but all boxes sir. Tip of my best hat. Ty
I discovered Robert Johnson in college doing a research paper on the Blues. I was really stunned by the sounds; it was the hardest, deepest most authentic music I've ever heard. I understand why he was so influential. But on this particular song, it does have a cringe moment, "I'm gonna beat my woman, till I get satisfied." I don't think I could sing that. I understand, its just a song, and a sentiment, not a proscription. I've never wanted to beat a woman; Pepper spray them, maybe o.k., but I've never done that. I couldn't bring myself to sing those lyrics in public.
More, more. I love all your stuff, man. Your skill and knowledge of these old legends just blows my mind. Your vids are the best thing on RUclips. You put my blues on hold when I watch you.
Beautiful. I knew the 'me and the devil' version that Gill Scott Heron did which was a little surreal, great though. This is really good, great playing and great voice my friend! a natural. Is that a Martin 000-28? or a D-28 on 'me and the devil'? I can't tell. 👍👍👍
Edward - thank you for all these wonderful videos. I've picked up a lot from watching. Sorry it took me so long to subscribe and tip you. One question if you please - who makes the wood body resonator you play? Thank you in advance.
just sent you a few bucks man, but it was so fucking annoying to sign into paypal they forced me to add a phone number before i could even log in. bullshit. anyway, keep up the good work.
frugg im so glad i found your channel again after like 2 years per incidence. you do so freakin spend your day as id like to . i mean yeah ay also play in the bush but not that sofisticated, besides that you are like a living representation of spirit of the bluesman. i love you, no homo
That is the closest I will ever get to seeing Robert Johnson live in concert. So good!
The guy is great, so authentic sounding!! 👍🏽👍🏻🕊️🎸

Sublime half hour of the delta blues.. it doesn’t get any better than this. 👌
Edward Phillips brings the Delta Blues to your door! 🎸🔥👹🔥👺🎸
Mr. Phillips, you're awesome, thanks so much for the entertainment.
Speechless. You capture it very well. Hope to see you live one day, not at the crossroads I hope
A lot of old blues songs have throw away, generic lyrics, but not Robert Johnson’s. His lyrics are pure poetry.
This is the best Robert Johnson feel I've heard from bluesman not named, Robert Johnson.
Agree
Sounds awesome. I can listen to this over and over and over again. Beautiful played. I feel the blues all the way deep in my soul. Yeah, keep up the great awesome performance. Thank you. 😊
Agree 100% . Alive blues.
Sweet
It never gets old , man.
Love the outdoors sets
legendary covers!!!Clapton struggled all his life to get closer to Robert Johnson way but he did not succed,you did!!!!
Real good! In the true blues tradition.
Keeping the blues alive, well done. Clapton struggled to play Robert Johnson, seriously, well done!
This sounds just like one of those old recordings. Fantastic!
