    George Lawrence Thorogood (born February 24, 1950) is an American musician, singer and songwriter from Wilmington, Delaware.[1] His "high-energy boogie-blues" sound became a staple of 1980s USA rock radio, with hits like his original songs "Bad to the Bone" and "I Drink Alone".[2] He has also helped to popularize older songs by American icons, such as "Move It on Over", "Who Do You Love?", and "House Rent Blues/One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer".

(Bo Didley)", and "The Sky Is Crying (Covered by Stevie Ray Vaughn)". Some of his other songs are "Bad To The Bone" and "I Drink Alone." Keep up the rocking good time.

    George is a master of the guitar, he can make so many different sounds not associated with the guitar. For example, in the Meatloaf video for "I would do anything for love" when the motorcycle revs it's engine that is George doing it on his guitar. My favorite of his is "Move it on Over".

I used to work at a Bar and Grille that once the kitchen closed that took full advantage of the Western New York liquor laws and closed at 4 AM. High end bartenders, juggling bottles and fancy pouring and what not. When the DJ would play this they would put 2 barstools on the bar, pick a male and a female from the crowd and sit them there and when he sings the bourbon, scotch, beer parts, they would pour these into their mouths...crazy times 😂😂😂

    "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" (originally "One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer") is a blues song written by Rudy Toombs and recorded by Amos Milburn in 1953. It is one of several drinking songs recorded by Milburn in the early 1950s that placed in the top ten of the Billboard R&B chart. Other artists released popular recordings of the song, including John Lee Hooker in 1966 and George Thorogood in 1977.

    This is a famously awesome cover/mashup of two John Lee Hooker songs, the other being "House Rent Blues." This and "OBOSandOB" are blues classics by one of the best there ever was. "Boom Boom" is another gem of JLH's. Ditto "Tupelo," which is a haunting kind of account of a serious flood in the region.

Keep doing what you're doing, and you'll be at 200,000 subscribers in just a few more minutes, and beyond. 🙂

    Watch him live at the Capitol Theater in 1984. He sings this Alvin Bishop and the whole concert is fabulous.

    Oh for sure George is one hell of a guitar slinger, and also Bad to the Bone!!

    Best thing about this song is how chaotic the guitar is.

    I saw George and company at the LA Coliseum fronting for the Rolling Stones with a raft of other top bands. The party ripped up a lot of steps when George went to town. It was the BEST, we didn't want him to stop!

    Thank you I haven’t heard this in a while. I was kind of remembering it as it went. Your response is justified. Especially when he gets to the chorus. The version is 5:21 minutes long. It’s a bar scene where a guy is convinced to play some blues and just destroys the song. In a good way

    Years ago, my friends and I played drinking games with this song. Needless to say it usually did not go well. Don't recommend trying.

    Unfortunately, he couldn't handle scotch and bourbon, but he loved his beer!!
    Rest in peace Jeff. Miss ya.

    This is actually two songs out together..both by John Lee Hooker
    Rent House Blues
    1 Bourbon, 1 Scotch, & 1 Beer
    I have seen him in concert(He opened for ZZ Top). The man kills it on the guitar , and is great with the slide...

    I know you do live versions of songs a lot- there’s a live version of this one that I’ve seen other reactors watch; I don’t know which video but it was performed somewhere in New Jersey. You should take a listen to it - it takes this studio version to a whole other level.

    I have been to many a gig in my lifetime and can honestly say George and his band was the best by far. He traveled all the way to my home state of Tasmania (that little island state below Australia) and gave us over two hours of loud hard rock and blues with some comedy thrown in for good measure, on stage in a pub. Don't drink beer but went though at least one to two bottles of Bourbon and whiskey, run amock and had the best night ever.

    The landlord isn't saying "That don't confront me." She is saying "That don't befront me." Befront means "To concern or bother. To matter to. Someone gives you an excuse for not being able to do something, but you don't care, as long as you get the result you want."

    So back in the 70's this was one of the albums that our Mom would let play on the downstairs record player it was a 5ft long wooden cabinet that came up to your waist the big speakers were one on each end you lifted the door in the middle and looked down was the turntable the radio and cubby holes big enough to put your albums. It had buttons for bass, treble, balance and volume that was high quality back then. For some reason my Mom loved George Thorogood I think it reminded her of her music since she loved the way he sang Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode. My Mom worked for Dick Clark she sang danced did commercials so she was hipper than most Mom's. I was 17 I think my brother could get tickets to go to his show in Philly. When Mom found out she wanted to go. SO she paid for all the tickets and drove a load of us following my brother. She thought it was a concert but it was a show in a big bar that was standing room only and we had to figure out who we were going to ditch her on so we could smoke a joint. I don't know what happen to her that night but me and my sister and the two people that came with us 16 and 17 year olds she bought all the drinks for us my other brothers and two other people. It was the first time any of us drank with our Mom and my other brother had to drive her car home. One of the best nights that I didn't remember parts of it the next day. To Answer your questions George plays lead guitar a bass a drummer one guy played piano sax and other instruments and a another acoustic or electric guitar. I was just waiting to see your face when the chorus started. He is from Delaware and he went to Philly and South Jersey just over the bridge a lot he played mostly clubs /bars I saw him 3 or 4 times. In the 80's he was more successful but never could fill the Spectrum. You all are probably wondering who the hell is Dick Clark the man that never aged was the host on the most popular show in the 60's til the 80 's or more. American Bandstand. The white version of SOUL TRAIN actually its the other way around but I loved Soul Train.

    You must react to "Bad to the Bone" next! And yes, George Thorogood is from Delaware and he is the main guitar player. And yes, all those soinds are from his guitar.

  • @Stuntnuts79

    Been to two of his shows in the last 10 years or so, other than a backing guitarist, this is mostly George playing. Dude can still wail.

    The wildest show I ever saw at the Fabulous Fox Theatre. Would’ve been 86 or 87, could still smoke inside so even if you weren’t “inhaling”, you were still messed up just by breathing. There were 15-20 people firing up one about every half hour just around us! They’d blaze a few hits, and pass to folks around them. We went prepared but left with what we brought because we didn’t need it! I’ve never passed on so much, so often. Every few minutes one coming your way. On top of that, there was Wild Turkey 101 bottles being passed around, along with multiple flasks of high octane ‘Shine. Show started at 9 and ended around midnight. We weren’t able to drive until around 5, after walking to the Majestic and consuming our weight in breakfast foods and coffee for 2 hours. And a 45 minute nap in the car followed by more coffee. Fun night!

    my first concert, Red Rocks, 1981... great song, great band. This is a cover, from a blues man, from the 40s.. John Lee Hooker.
    in 2005, I chilled with these guys, at a hotel in Denver..

    "Trifling good for nothing type a Brother" yessss I started singing that song right along with you in my head "silly me why haven't I found another" love me some Destiny's Child..
    My Dad introduced me to George as a kid and our song we'd always sing together was "I Drink Alone" check that one out too highly recommend 😉

    This is a very busy song. I love it!!
    Of course the song is a cover combining John Lee Hooker's House Rent Blues and One Bourbon, One Scoth and One Beer.
    Cleverly done though 😁
    One Bourbon....... was written by Rudy Toombs, but George's guitar work pays homage to John Lee Hooker's version throughout.
    House Rent Blues is a Hooker original I think.

  • @altonmarkham9510

    It's George playing Clarence plays sax for him when this was recorded....and all that is guitar ...not only is it the guitar but he's the only one playing one in the band at the time..... Clarence died a few years ago 😥

    Heard this when I was 10 when my dad let me listen to his record. He then told me about John Lee Hooker who wrote House Rent Blues and a version of One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. Great blues is built on top of the shoulders of those who came before.

    saw him back in the day at the vancouver commodore, a night club that seats maybe 300. they had a big dance floor made of wood and when everyone danced, the floor would move up and down. great fun. your next song should be - Bad to the bone.

  • @tombates9122
    @tombates9122 8 месяцев назад +2

    George is amazing live. He pretty much freestyles this song so it tells the same story but he changes some verses when he feels like it. He also freestyles the guitar, just playing what he feels fits the song and the backing band are good enough to follow along.

  • @slainteron4027
    @slainteron4027 9 месяцев назад +2

    A Thorogood concert is a 1:45 party. Saw him back I think in 86 on the Maverick Tour it was so much fun. Willie and The Handjive, and I drink Alone are worth reacting to.

  • @jasonelliott729

    Grew up on George Thorogood and yep it shuts down a lot of bars. He was an influence for me to learn blues guitar and he was influenced by the best blues men to ever exist. Love your video! Very funny watching younger people react to a blues legend.
