The Harmonica is played by Lester Butler my absolute favorite harp player next to little walther and sonny boy williamson . Unfortunatly he died on the 9th of may 1998 2 days after i saw him at the moulin blues festival in Ospel Holland . Check out his album KingKing from the red devils and 13 the band he was playing in at the time of his death ,did also the opening song on the Rancid album.. forgot now... anyway lester Butler check im out!
This whole song itself was essentially a sample. This isn't the way Burnside recorded it at all. This was all remixed completely into this quirky, catchy song years later.
I love this song, it reminds me of the time I was walking on the docks and I saw my freind who was on his boat and he looked at me surprised and shocked that he saw me and asked me what am I doing here I proceeded to tell him I caught a fish off the point over there, then I showed him the fish ........... and that's all that happened nothing else...... we went our separate ways ........ stop asking me questions..... leave me alone...( rides away in boat nervously)
This one still cracks me up! No chord changes at all. Very few lyrics that just repeat themselves anyway. But don't get me wrong - this is a really song fun to listen to!!
Do you understand the lyrical repeat? The whole dialogue with his love lady turns into a Train Wreck. " The Engineer blue the whistle and the fireman he rang the bell." After he found fame with his song being picked up for the Opening Credits of the "Sopranos" he passed away - not rcih for most of his life.

So.....any time names like BB King, Buddy Guy, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton are spoken.....any time those names are spoken and this man's isn't, it's a low down shame.
RL is the groove KING.
hell yeah this is straight Mississippi groove right here 🔥🔥🔥
One chord Mississippi
"she asked me why...I just went on and told her" that's classic!
Yeah from both sides
Lester Butler on harmonica Absolute legend end of story
Pure Solid Rythem 👌
If this was on vinyl the track would be worn
Haha!!! Love the comment because it’s true lmao🤘🏼
This Track makes me feel like I can do anything!!!
indeed, maybe you always could
Sometimes, all you need is the key or the catalyst. And everything changes
Stone solid (you know).
Agreed...rl was a legend..yes he was..62 year old former marine from south carolina...love him..
How cool is that
Thx 4 yhat😂
This is the greatest song on the planet ever !
Nah, this is on top with his Someday Baby song.
And we all are legends listening to this great music 🎶 ❤
Back in 1993 I sat 2 or 3 meters away this great bluesman, his cousin on drums, his only accompaniment. And his Fender, and Heineken, lots of it.
A Bothered Mind. I do relate to that.
That is some blues!
one of the greatest jams ever...

If I'm right, this song is played in a The Sopranos amazing murder scene.
Look at this baby I caught right off the point here
I did 20 fuckin' years.
You would be correct.
You mama
You would be correct sir.

what a weird conversation
Your comment defines "random"
Love it very funny.
@@nickweiland1244watch the sopranos
😄
Totalement hypnotique très puissant.
AWSOME crank it up👍
Which I did ! , driving home from woik!
I can't believe with all his talent and skill, Burnside has to resort to driving a taxi
I mean.... He's dead
@@markvickroy6725 Biden passed on quite some time ago, and he's still President.
@@markvickroy6725RIP
It’s bad ya know
Can’t get any deeper then this
Just literally makes you want to get off ya chair n dance. ❤

Cool. TV gives us a lot of good music. But Burnside is the real deal. ruclips.net/video/1SOt4tAaQS8/видео.html

Wow! Now that's some funky shit! Love it🕺
Killer harp
The title says it all...R.L. Burnside is bad you know!!🎸😎

Wow... it's humourous? It's funny as f...but hey respect
He was a Marine.
It's funny tho😂. Who r u a damn critique??? lol😮
@@michaelcorrigan5580R.L. Burnside didn't write the theme song to The Sopranos. Woke Up This Morning was written by Alabama 3.
It's almost like chord changes are only a part of music, and not even a hugely necessary part.
If you live blues...this is the one track every home should have....it's simplicity,is it's masterpiece.
The man.
Also boogie chillun no. 2----it's heaven sent.
Unbelievably FANTASTIC!!
rl burnside made me go out and buy a harmonica
I'm feeling the need to do the same
Literally can’t sit still listening to this most amazing best ever make s you feel alive and like dancing 🕺 ❤

This music is superb !
Tranced me out!
I heard this song first time on our community radio KDHX blues night
Playing this as I’m walking out of my house into the world and having it as my theme song is always my move
This is hypnotic. I could trance out to this for hours.
I just went on an tol' her

This is a lot of fun to play along with. I play harmonica and have the pedals to make it sound exactly like this recording.
So.....any time names like BB King, Buddy Guy, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton are spoken.....any time those names are spoken and this man's isn't, it's a low down shame.

@kmc6165 😂😂 nice one.
