Shut up. They're not underrated. Just say it's amazing and enjoy. I love em but they've always been the shit and achieved commercial success and are still on the road killing it.
They got a movie deal with Woody Harrelson and that surprising criminal Randy Quaid in the prime 90's. I love them but they filled the...got their shot. And yes they could use Cialis and grasp for more glory...love you John Pauper. But........
Because they refused to keep making catchy, radio friendly songs like Hook and Run Around. In Hook, Popper even sings about this, about not making catchy tunes to appeal to a radio friendly audience, about creating what he wants to create.
He is a badass! I have only heard one other harmonica player that can give big man a run for his money, Will Wylde is incredible as well, go check him out and see what ya think 😉
This is my favorite cut from this band.....the way it lifts you up and drops you and and comes back around around and the guitar kicks in....oh man.....
Im absolutely loving this tune, great harmonica playing, hes like the Tom Morello of harmonica players, i think he almost took the harmonica to another level in this track.
Yes he definitely almost did split up the musical universes to another degree with that harmonica in this. He is so original. They all pretty much created a new genre with this song. Blues grunge lol but everything rock n roll no matter the genre is really all derived from blues
A fat man in a cowboy hat and twin bandoliers of harmonicas, and a drummer with a SS decal on his kit. This, ladies and gentlemen, is true Rock N Roll.
John totally wails on this tune. It's just raw and unadulterated pure in your face harp playing. I get the shivers every time I hear this tune. He tears it up. If I can ever play this song on my harp I'll be a happy man.
I can't believe I just found this song!! I am from NC and I have listened/jamed to BT since 96'!! Never disappoint just would love to hear something new from them....
I've loved this band the first time I saw em on TV. Elwood blues hosting the House of Blues introduced them. That was in the 90s. I've been hooked ever since.
Huge Traveler fan as every tattoo can attest... personally my favorite live song... not favorite song, but this particular song is SOOO much better live... just amazing...
I saw them back then in St. Louis for their first album tour at a place called Mississippi Nights, right on the river just down from the Arch, saw Popper blow the reeds out of 2-3 harmonicas and he'd just reach up and take another one out of his bandoleer full of them and never miss a beat, amazing show.
Richard Sifford hell yeah I saw them when Four came out. Rusted Root, Lenny Kravitez, Dave Matthews Band, and Blue Traveler closed. For my first concert it kicked so much.
Brother from u playing at Ziggy's in Winston Salem NC! 1990! Jay Stevens! I was 18 rocked u all over the world while serving our country! But Nothing At All ZIGGY'S Winston Salem NC. See ya in Greensboro NC in October! Dont forget us small folks out of Pfafftown NC! From the beginning!!! Love y'all!!😁
I can't understand how anyone can give this a "thumbs down" unless some Beiber or Swift kids took a wrong turn and landed here. Anyone that appreciates good rock and roll gets this.
This is the perfect song for driving with the top down on a hot summer day with your shades on, one hand on the steering wheel hot girl in the passenger seat 😎
+Owen Wilsons nose if you are John Popper, I just wanted you to know that I miss your music. The Mountain Wins Again has gotten me through some tough stuff. Thank you.
with guitar players, and drummers and bass players, no one will ever agree on who is the best ever, but John Popper is hands down the best harmonica player to ever walk the planet, no contest
I saw you in Los Angeles like my post below from three months ago I caught a harmonica now I saw him at Anaheim opening night caught another harmonica! I actually have a little bit of a solo to the harmonica on the song. I only play it “Alone” now because I’m a little bit embarrassed but I do hit some of the notes and there’s a lot of breathing involved.
This is one of the most underrated bands in history...this big man has some talent man!!
@Jason post I agree,most Underated. !!!
He is amazing. You should see Popper in concert. Haha!
I couldn’t agree with this more
The way he hammers that harmonix and that vocal 🔥
Shut up. They're not underrated. Just say it's amazing and enjoy. I love em but they've always been the shit and achieved commercial success and are still on the road killing it.
I don’t see how this band didn’t get a hundred times bigger than they did. Criminally underrated is an understatement.
They got a movie deal with Woody Harrelson and that surprising criminal Randy Quaid in the prime 90's. I love them but they filled the...got their shot. And yes they could use Cialis and grasp for more glory...love you John Pauper. But........
Because of image heavy 90s
@@buckautry4269 Popper, baby, Popper
but sure, maybe a pauper now
Because they refused to keep making catchy, radio friendly songs like Hook and Run Around.
In Hook, Popper even sings about this, about not making catchy tunes to appeal to a radio friendly audience, about creating what he wants to create.
They didn't sign in blood. All the great talent out there ain't gonna be on the radio waves. (In my best mumble rap) lol
Listening to him on the harmonica is like listening to Jimmy Hendrix.. Absolutely amazing!
He is a badass! I have only heard one other harmonica player that can give big man a run for his money, Will Wylde is incredible as well, go check him out and see what ya think 😉
What about sugar Blue ?@tonymayhew191
Hendrix was actually his influence
@@Tom-xn8nnseen him atleast five times
Man, I forgot how great this band was.
+Ryan Blais Me too.
+Ryan Blais Man, I just discovered how great this band was.
+Boca Do Inferno Better late than never, friend...so much good music out there...most of it has been done already
I'm remembering ... the 90s were a bit of a blur ... an awesome blur, but a blur heh
Was? I just saw them 2 weeks ago in Orlando and they're as awesome as they ever were.
Rip Bobby Sheehan, such a great bass player and I think this track is one of the best for showing off his playing.
Addiction is a terrible beast 😢
This is my favorite cut from this band.....the way it lifts you up and drops you and and comes back around around and the guitar kicks in....oh man.....
very well said

The greatest harmonica player the world has ever produced
Popper is one of the greats! his voice, his playing and his soul wreaks on and on and on....
What a great tune to start a Carolina Saturday with!
Love the blush travelers

Logan Cracraft Two shows two harmonicas
its dirty blues bro
Fuck yeah, bro!!
Ohhhh SS like the chevy. I thought you meant like Himmler.
Excuse me he isn't fat
grew up to blues traveler, every song brings a wave of nostalgia
They are still absolutely ROCKING it! Got home 1 hour ago from an AWESOME concert here in Waterville Maine! 5/23/2023 ❤
John totally wails on this tune. It's just raw and unadulterated pure in your face harp playing. I get the shivers every time I hear this tune. He tears it up. If I can ever play this song on my harp I'll be a happy man.
I can't believe I just found this song!! I am from NC and I have listened/jamed to BT since 96'!! Never disappoint just would love to hear something new from them....
Just went to see blues travelers. Had vip got to meet John he gave me one of harmonicas. Awesome experience !
Extremely talented band, that never got the praise they deserve. So if my 2 cents mean a thing. Great job guys on some great music!!
That harmonica spoke to my very soul.
Kid: “ Daddy? What is a Killer Blues Rock Track?
Daddy: “ This song!!! Now turn it up!!!
2019 where’s real rock an roll ,it’s like they forgot there roots .
I need more blues traveler
It's the melody and lyrics that are the solid base for the Blues Traveler's success, IMO.
I've loved this band the first time I saw em on TV. Elwood blues hosting the House of Blues introduced them. That was in the 90s. I've been hooked ever since.
Man I saw them front row openin for the Black Crowes on The Horde Festival tours a couple years in a row..... Vicious!
Dang that woulda been amazing!!
Popper's considered one of the all time great harmonica players by Hohner.
Thats the jam right there! Oooh thats good stuff!
Huge Traveler fan as every tattoo can attest... personally my favorite live song... not favorite song, but this particular song is SOOO much better live... just amazing...
Never been blown away like I was when I first saw this band.
hell, face it they rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss the ‘90’s music scene 🔥
Big John Popper larger than life! So talented, his label asked him to take a back seat on the visuals..
Wow he really can sing and wale on the mouth harp !!! I miss the 1990's !!!!!!!!!!
Travis Hill that whale can wale!
Always been my favorite Blues Travelers song..love it..and damn that girl is pretty!
yes it is and pretty is an understatement!!!! haha
Mine too ;)
What shows these guys put on in the 90's
I saw them back then in St. Louis for their first album tour at a place called Mississippi Nights, right on the river just down from the Arch, saw Popper blow the reeds out of 2-3 harmonicas and he'd just reach up and take another one out of his bandoleer full of them and never miss a beat, amazing show.
Richard Sifford hell yeah I saw them when Four came out. Rusted Root, Lenny Kravitez, Dave Matthews Band, and Blue Traveler closed. For my first concert it kicked so much.
even now they still do amazing shows I saw them last week and it was amazing
H.O.R.D.E. FEST!
Just moved to Texas from North Carolina and I've got the Carolina Blues
Still sounds solid today.. That blues riff and harmonica.. Dammmmmnn
Easily in their top 3 best songs imo...Great song and Blues Traveler rules!!!
Harmonica hero should of been a game for a console like guitar hero lol
7
I liked that riff near the beginning. they should've played it more times.
I love this song, and damn that's a beautiful girl.
There needs to be a LOVE button for this song!

Seeing them tomorrow. This is my face, sounds more classic. Love his voice, what a talented man.
many musical climaxes, the harmonica beats the punch, best I've ever heard
I can't understand how anyone can give this a "thumbs down" unless some Beiber or Swift kids took a wrong turn and landed here. Anyone that appreciates good rock and roll gets this.
Terra Firma they are jealous of Poppers sexiness
Balls to the wall rock and roll
Misguided idiots..
This is pure music unlike this mess nowadays. Lawd sounding like my parents 🤣. Him playing that harmonica though is just pure true feeling luv it!
Carolina blues is the shit need more music like this!!!!!!!
Sho do ;)
Damn right!!
This song takes me back to a place and time I can find again
This is the perfect song for driving with the top down on a hot summer day with your shades on, one hand on the steering wheel hot girl in the passenger seat 😎

+Owen Wilsons nose
You are clearly Owen Wilson's nose, don't pretend you're the harmonica wizard himself.
I am John Popper. My tour in on hiatus, and I like reaching out to my fans. Have you a question?
+Owen Wilsons nose if you are John Popper, I just wanted you to know that I miss your music. The Mountain Wins Again has gotten me through some tough stuff. Thank you.
Jessie Parham ,Jessie, it is I, and thank you for the kind words :)
+Owen Wilsons nose I got to see Y'all for free in anniston Alabama this year fucken awesome!!!!!!!
Such a great drivin tune. Good punch to it. As the saying goes: “ They just don’t write em like that anymore!” Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
my krispy kreme delivery song at 2 am, " gnna have to run a red light"
Awesome song. Why am I only hearing this for the first time as a 35 year old. If it’s b/c this guy is big, that sucks.
That man is making that harmonica talk! And I fucking love it man! Blues traveler is so criminally underrated!
Friend of mine told about these guys, glad he Did.
sounds like a hell of a good friend!
Yep.
I love this song very very much
Totally LOVE this song. Loved the whole album...CD is a frequent flyer in my music rotation.
One of the most rocking tunes in the history of ever! Great for shaking the dust off the walls.
Hope they do this one in Lancaster, OH tonight! :)
1 of my favorite bands of all time
Just heard this durin Daytona 500.
gotta love the Harmonica bandoleers...this song is AWESOME
Love that watery soundgarden sound they added
Fire 🔥 Love his voice
R.I.P Bobby
These boys made the harmonica cool again...

We Miss you Bobby!!
AMAZING VOICE!!!!!
One of the tightest bands all time.... Phenomenal
One of the best songs of the band!
This band was awesome!!
Awesome, Awesome stuff. This is what needs be around now.
My lungs & lips hurt just watching the big guy. I remember his Letterman gig in 1995
@BBQFanNo1 - its a matter of the equiptment used ... the mic is run into an overdriven (small) tube amp which is, in turn, miked ...
I cant believe that this song is 21+ years old.
You mean 26 years old?
Nothing but the real thing makes my heart sing, feel good boogie, oh yeah
In my opinion their best song.
with guitar players, and drummers and bass players, no one will ever agree on who is the best ever, but John Popper is hands down the best harmonica player to ever walk the planet, no contest
Been listening to this Band since 1996... kool
Love from Carolina!
Saw them at cow palace in sf nye 89/90...
When My .... Carolina..... throw down....! No better words!
Blues Traveler always had cool songs but this is the coolest of the cool.
Glorious
"Carolina Blues" by Blues Traveler
Fantastic 😎
I'd marry John Popper for his voice.
that's funny , cause I have it.(wink) LOL
I can match this harmonica player note for note. Been doing it on my front porch for years!! Truth!
On the RaiL has a new meaning
This is real brilliant wauwwwwww this one is new for me.Awesome.Thank you Blues Traveler for uploading,
One talented group of Blues Rockers!!!! Diversified as all get out!
I saw you in Los Angeles like my post below from three months ago I caught a harmonica now I saw him at Anaheim opening night caught another harmonica! I actually have a little bit of a solo to the harmonica on the song. I only play it “Alone” now because I’m a little bit embarrassed but I do hit some of the notes and there’s a lot of breathing involved.
Love the blues travel's
I really enjoy their videos, so Fast paced and Visual..
No shit fellas, You're actually allowing that thumbnail to represent you on 'BluesTravelerVEVO'. What the fuck.
Man that's a good song.I love music that makes you happy!
