- Lyrics: I'm blue and lonesome As a man can be I'm blue and lonesome Whoa-oh As a man can be
I don't have headaches
Over myself
My love is gone away from me
Baby, ple-e-ease!
Come on back home to me
Baby, ple-e-ease, yeah
Come on back home to me
Yeah my, heart is full of misery
Baby, you won't be sweet to me
I'm gonna cast my trouble
Down in the deep blue sea
I'm gonna cast my trouble
Yeah, down in the deep blue sea
Let the whales and the fishes
Have a fuss over me.
The Charles Ford Band, three brothers and a friend from Ukiah, California with extraordinary enthusiasm and energy, played gritty and accomplished urban blues at bars and clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area. These recordings made in early 1972 showcase a young Robben Ford, now considered an authentic guitar legend emulated and revered by a whole generation of young blues guitarists, backed by Pat Ford's dynamic drums, Mark Ford's gutsy and exuberant harmonica and Stan Poplin's rock solid bass.
This mournful tune was originally and recorded by Memphis Slim in 1949. It was his second major R&B chart hit after "Messin' Around". Harmonica legend Little Walter recorded a version as the B side to his 1965 single "Mean Ole Frisco."

The sun peeks up at the horizon - orange and pink streaks mixing with the still-dark purple sky of the quickly vanishing night. The beach is totally empty, save a few nimble skimmers, stalking the shallow waves for an easy breakfast. I glance down the beach to my left, her trail of footprints leading off into the distance - she left at some point during the night, I assume.
The salty water is tinged a burnt orange in one long stripe where the sun’s rays are spreading, the rest of the waves still tossing about a deep grey color. An occasional dolphin fin appears for a moment, then quickly vanishes. I glance at the whiskey bottle resting at my feet, trying to remember the blurred night. Did we walk on the shore all night, stopping here to rest? I shake a few drops of sweat off my forehead, unable to grasp a memory.
Her footprints are straight, purposeful - no wavering as she trekked down the night beach. I wipe my hair out of my eyes and admire the glow on the surface of the water in front of me, warmth spreading over the tossing waves.
I crane my neck across the sand, squinting to the still grey distance. A tiny figure - smoothly striding towards me, graceful movement - I imagine I can see her hair gently tossed in a beach breeze.
I exhale, squint at the pink-tinged waves, and dig my feet into the warming sand.
Cheers, Don.
Perfect..cheers my friend!
The scene is set , let the blues commence☺
Sandŕa Griffiths damn right my friend!
G Shivers, perfection!

I’ve met some of the most magnificent angels in my life, when I’ve been Blue and Lonesome. The Blues has its special way of taking care of its pals. Great tune.
Sencillamente impresionante. No sabía que Robben tenía un hermano con tanto talento. Gracias
Baby please Come back to me 🙏🙏🙏. Thanks Dt
Danke, daß es euch gibt. Ihr bereichert mein Herz, meine Seele ☮️✌️

I need to crown don tunes for the great work his been doing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑👑👑👑
Thanks Ryan!
Love Robben Ford! There's another much overlooked song which has a beautiful solo - Tell Him I Was Flyin' - The Charles Ford Band. Possibly one of my favourites along with Mike Bloomfield on Our Love Is Drifting. Such a treat to re-listen to, and again.
Thank you mr Don

The crowning glory of a good sunday, Don's Tunes channel with an excellent blues song.
Greetings from Germany
Greetings my friend, enjoy!
Hi Dear Don. Apart from being Host with the most, your diplomacy also soars very high. What an absolutely perfect piece of music in the light of Peter Green. Exactly right. Nothing too heavy, and the harmonica reminded me of Once Upon A Time In The West. Harmonica and Blues seem to be so complementary. Piano and guitar also good combination, but harmonica really has that sad/haunting Blues note. Nice song and lyrics. To you Don, and your unquestionable taste. Have a good good healthy week. Take care and shine on. We have the best Blues guru looking out for us. A thousand kisses deep. Anne 🙏😷🌵😘
Perfectly said dear friend, enjoy you day and have a lovely week!
Just had bad news...blue and lonesome is how I feel...wonderful tune Don...Cheers man
Cheers my friend, stay strong!
Long live the blues
I can imagine Peter Green singing this, RIP Peter, you showed us the way, it us up to Don to show us the blues and he does....wonderfully, thank you Don for another classic and a beautiful video.👌
Master of Blues. Don, your channel makes the week so much more easy. Thanks from South Africa.
Greetings man, enjoy!
Thanks Don. All the way from east Africa.
Enjoy my friend!
Also enjoying the blues from Kenya
No way I was missing this🔥 it just brings back the peace needed and that harmonica so harmonious I even shed a tear🔥
Awesome more good voice tks Don's
Easy now, just hush. Quiet reverence while the mood turns solemn, a much needed and underused feeling these days. That harmonica can reach right down inside you. Nice work, Don.
Enjoy my friend!
Isn't it strange that so many people hear and feel the harmonica. I mean, the guitar and piano also give balance but, the harmonica really does dig deep inside the soul. Just love it. Even though I don't play any instrument, I think before my time is up, I should buy a harmonica and drive everybody crazy trying to learn how to play it. Wush me luck. Anne🙏😷🌵
anne chatoka hey how’d it turn out if you don’t mind me asking, see I’m holding you to your word. I hope you actually got yourself a harmonica you deserve it baby for making it this far into life unscathed but please for all that you have got, blow into that harmonica make a melody that’s YOURS and retain the knowledge so that you can speak your soul through music and let it be your bein. For what it’s worth Ms. I salute you I hope the rest of your days are filled with happiness may god be with you
@@NirvanasHoles Hi haven't bought the harmonica yet but I most certainly will because, it's just about driving me crazy not having one. In my heart I can play it already, but the truth is, I bet I won't be able to play a note. I have got a few bamboo flutes/pan flutes which likewise, I can't play, but hey, no harm in trying. Perhaps I'm just not supposed to know. Actually, I make wind chimes and mobiles from bamboo and all kind of natural/nature things. Just love the deeper sounds, hence in Blues, nice deep velvety voice is so appealing. I simply love and adore Blues and l listen every day. Perhaps, when I get my harmonica, I'll shock everybody, myself included and produce a very unique sound unheard of before (ha ha). We will see. Meantime friend, many thanks for your interest, kind words of wisdom and best wishes. Life without Blues cannot be a life so, enjoy your life and let Blues show you the way, ah' yes, and let's not forget Don. Stay safe and blessed. Anne🙏😷🌵
When life starts getting hard and you don't understand what's going around or how to get out of it. Turn to blues. You'll forget every pain and misery. Belive me.
Very good!! Brasil/Caraguatatuba-S.P.
Beautiful song ! I helps me feel good even though I am brokenheart.
Perfect for a Sunday morning...the song is rich with the right notes. 💯
In 2017 I was going through very difficult times. At that time I started listening to your tunes. They kept me company on many lonely nights and through many wine bottles. Three years later, things are better but life is still a struggle and I still get blue. It made my day to see that this channel is still active. Cheers
Happy to hear that ...music has a special power..the blues is a healer. Cheers man, thanks for listening!
An amazing tune…. I can listen to the guitar all day. All day. 11/10
Enjoy!
A song with many emotions! ! The melody of the harmonica leaves the sweetness of sadness!!
This song picks up a lot of whisky! ! Cheers to lost loved ones!! Thank you Mr Don !!🍷🎶🎵🍷

Hey Don, just wanted to say thanks for all the blues music you post!
I run a blues radio show at my local university and when i ever need some great blues tracks to fit the mood, i always come to your channel. being stuck at home during the pandemic made it harder due to not having access to the cds at the station. And so during the pandemic you have been my library of blues.
Thanks brother!
