We were friends for a lot of years.Albert was like a beloved Uncle to me. One cold wintery night outside of Nightstage in Cambridge Mass.I crawled under the bus.To help Albert who was working on it. Slim, he said hey man you got a power lantern...And laughed.As I held the huge light.Yea boss I heard you called for illumination....!!!! That's nice Albert growled as the wind whipped at us.We buttoned up the problem.And Cleaned up our hands with mechanics waterless soap.And went into the club....All night we talked and laughed.And had a taste of 2 together. Albert was always the same.Very very kind to me. And a wonderful friend. His advice was always good. He was just like family to me. I miss him, deeply.I was blessed to call him friend. He was one of a kind.....!!!
Amazing story Steve, Albert is such an incredible guy im to young to have ever of met him but your story made me feel like I knew him aswell thank you for sharing
No exaggeration, he must have the most recognisable sound of any guitarist EVER. I'm a player myself, who love classical, blues, jazz and rock guitar...I never fail to hear that it's Albert playing.
He really mean it..when he says,"..those of you who wish to have someone to love..(pauses..)like me..I'm alone.."good God..the expression on his face..this man really knows what the blues is all about..
Albert's vocal line at 1:48 ("there is nothing I can do") is where the famous lead guitar riff in "Layla" came from. Eric Clapton said in an interview that Duane Allman based the Layla riff on this vocal line, but twice as fast.
No matter what style of music you want to play every guitar player should start by studing this Man. This song alone will teach you everything you need to know about playing guitar. 1. Tone 2. Patience (Less can be more) 3. Bending& Vibrato (Make it talk) 4. Playing with feel and feeling 5. Building emotion into your song bring the volume down and hammer it at just the right time and then back down again bring your audience into the song. 6lead the Band. streets smarts compared to book smarts.
lightninboy1979 Albert was notorius for calling out the band and especially the sound man and I knew people who knew him and the word was that Albert was an ass kicker on and off the stage but at the same time a very sweet man, he just didn't play
without the blues there would be no good music. no stones,no clapton, and not many others who have based their music as their own, their muse. this this blues is sweet love,and has saved many a poor soul.
His guitar licks are one of a kind..I love plenty of other blues guitar artists but Albert King's upside down strings, left handed lucy, is like a burning hot knife(the licks) through soft butter(my musical/emotional receptors of my brain)....just rips me a new one..like it was said, if you can't feel this you gotta hole in your soul...It usually takes quite a bit to make me "feel" let alone cry but this song, especially this version him being getting old,makes me wail like a baby. RIP true King
Peppermint Harris wrote it-{"It is also credited to have been written by 'Deadric Malone' (a pseudonym of Don Robey), owner of Duke, which was a customary practice for some producers and label owners at that time".}Fenton Robinson recorded it in 1959-Fenton wrote Somebody Loan Me a Dime.
If you don't dig the blues you got a hole in your soul. I'll be forever grateful that I got to see Albert twice, once in Little Rock at a small club and once at the King Biscuit Blues Festival in Helena, Arkansas. He played on the back of a flatbed trailer and I've never seen anyone before or since who could seduce a crowd like The Velvet Bulldozer. R.I.P.
R.I.P. Velvet Bulldozer. Albert King inspired so many artists including Stevie Ray Vaughan. For that alone, he deserves to go down in Blues history as a true legend.
That's asking for trouble. To love like that especially a woman is very dangerous. Itll destroy your life. Itll break your heart with no hope. It's better to have a woman love you like that and give your love to a guitar like Albert's Lucy.
+Marianne Rasmussen That not true. He just didn't play it as often as most people. Take overall junction for example. Also when he outlines the key of the song, he plays the lower octaves of the key, so he uses the 6th.
When Albert said he was tired pretty sure it was the understatement of the century. Once an act like his becomes popular ( hot) like his did, and others like it, all over the world, and US concert & venue promoters will practically fist fight to book it for their show which can run a guy ragged in only a couple of years! Touring is every Artists decision but the $ is so alluring to them it's difficult to turn it down.He probably had to beg borrow and steal ( demand ) his any chosen time off. If they could they have booked him 365 days a year until he died because the health of the human beings that are required to make a show are not their top priority. And from what I was told he huge in stature, could have a mean disposition when he wanted to but %99 of the time he WAS the nicest guy any one could ever meet. RIP Albert The Whole World Misses you especially the millions of budding blues guitarists and singers that followed you to learn from you, after you, and that still are today! CAN YOU HEAR UP THERE ALBERT? " I hope so"
morrieswigs Albert's solo and I do believe accompany guitar Pena are absolutely ripping it during the interview I have been watching this concert for years and every time it gets to part I get a sick feeling in my stomach why oh why in the world would they have chosen that song and that time, I applaud the swedes for making this video happen and they did a great job except for that spot, they screwed that one up big time!
Just a guess, but possibly it wasn’t done intentionally to keep the performance special for those who were actually thereto see it live. On a positive note the interview is very revealing of Alberts Characters and genuine personality. My two favorite parts, “ if I changed the strings it might mess up my style, and I don’t wanna mess up my style, I don’t think Lucy would like that” and “I would just have to play the other guitar until I got this one fixed, and then I would give the other guitar back” The velvet bulldozer was such a fitting description to Albert! Oh and of course can’t forget that outro/solo, one of my favorite performances of his, along with “Cadillac assembly line” 🤘Blues Power🤘
Mr. King could give you something special in his tone but then again youd have to come back to feel it again. The man had the Blue's past the soul and more! Thanks Mr. King!
What a soul, thank you god for this soul. Thank him for everything he went through he will never know how much he meant to so many. God bless him and keep him close, see you on the other side.
Albert King is a Blues Legend! I love this clip with interview. It shows Albert's love of his trusty guitar. His vocals are smooth and his guitar justs cuts deep into ya! Blues music at it's finest!!!
He truly gave himself completely, heart mind and soul for his audience and his music! Albert king was truly unique and the tone of that v guitar was incredible and he played it clean, no effects, nothing but his amazing voice and thoses huge paws on thoses strings. Ripeace Albert king.
I walked into work one morning and found a very large gentleman occupying my chair and refusing to move. It was of course-Albert. He and my boss grew up together in Mississippi. God bless both.
Albert King borned up Luxora Arkansas, Mississippi County, I met his brother in 1970, we were convicts at the 'Mississippi County Penal Farm." He was a Tractor Man, and they threw him in Jail every Spring because he could drive the tractor for Capt. Dan Blogett , who ran the Penal Colony for Profit.We was given $5.00 a day against out Fines (Public Intox was 90 Days and $90 fine, you had to Finish your 90 days Then you start on your Fine, figure 90 Dollars at $5 a day, I am old (70) and feeble minded, this was a long time ago.
lowrence mayfield Yeah, I guessed it right then! And yeah, Albert is my favorite too. Almost all of his songs are the same, but I still never get tired of hearing them over and over. The same licks but I love them every time. Damn, if that ain't magic, I don't know what is!
Wish I had the chance to meet him when he was living. He is the greatest in blues. Hear his music all the time. Mr King, I love you, thanks for what you did for music.
he came back home here in Memphis and took a long break...... He was packed and ready to go back to work. He was tending his nice vegetable garden at his place......and his heart ❤️ gave out. Rest In Sublime Peace King Albert!
Because you understand true art and culture baby many people dont understand this at your level to understand life the blues is 400 years of pain that are hidden in those notes many can copy the blues but albert is the blues to listen to this says alot about you stay involved
Wow. the very end when he really starts hitting the notes is pure emotion and something only few could summon on the fretboard. I've been playing for 20+ years and listening to AK just reminds me what true talent sounds like.
Albert is the first guitarist I've seen who plays with the strings the opposite way. Him, BB King, Jimi Hendrix, SRV, Jimmy Page, Buddy Guy, Freddie King, Allen Collins(from Lynyrd Skynyrd) Eric Clapton, are bad ass Blues Players I would also suggest listening to Robert Johnson, Son House, Howlin Wolf, Muddy Waters, Hubert Sumlin, Leadbelly. All of the Early Blues Legends, They are so important. Around the 60's blues went mainstream, only then did we realize where these great songs came from.
Most lefties played right handed guitars upside down but restrung them, he did not. He also only played 5 strings, never the low E, pulling down on the strings for his incredible bends .
When this gentleman plays the blues the world stands still for me...IMHO the finest of the finest. So much soul and rich emotion tinged with a unique rawness to his playing. You can just see where Jimi, Stevie and Rory and so many others got their leads from. Not sure we will ever see the likes of AK again. Rest easy big man.
This is the First Time I cried in a Long Time, His Sound Will Ring on Forever in my Ears!!!!!Albert is my Mentor and I will Represent that Style till The Day I die,Cheers to the Lefty Upside Down GOD of the Blues,The One The Only Legend Albert King! I miss You and I Know You are ridin with me!!!!!!!#1 in my Heart,Thank You for inspiring me King
There are many musicians who touch many souls. This man's music is as deep as all of the oceans. His actual vocals and his guitar voice compliment each other so well, and his overall musical feel make him a truly unique entity. I regret that, though I knew his music from a very young age, I did not see him live even once. Truly, truly regrettable.
Hello all, that's me, Lady "J" Huston, playing on Trumpet with the legendary Albert King in 1981.
Albert was a very underrated singer. He gives me chills.
Better than BB
The velvet bulldozer 😊
@@AU-pu9vlI used to think that way, too, until I learned to appreciate all the Blues greats for their own unique styles and sounds.
We were friends for a lot of years.Albert was like a beloved Uncle to me. One cold wintery night outside of Nightstage in Cambridge Mass.I crawled under the bus.To help Albert who was working on it.

Amazing story Steve, Albert is such an incredible guy im to young to have ever of met him but your story made me feel like I knew him aswell thank you for sharing
Nice story! Thanks for sharing it..
Truly a legend and my all time favorite!
♥
EPIC.
There is nothing wrong with telling someone that your tired and need a rest . Thank you Albert for helping me realize that .
Touring constantly is not the easiest thing to do.
No exaggeration, he must have the most recognisable sound of any guitarist EVER. I'm a player myself, who love classical, blues, jazz and rock guitar...I never fail to hear that it's Albert playing.
rvic11 His sound comes from his fingers....doesn’t use a pick so he has a fat sound.
It's the space between the notes. Every not screams out. SRV lead me to Albert...
Bb Albert jimi and Santana i know IMMEDIATELY when I hear Em
Hear layla from eric clapton.
@@tsuki586 no
“I like playing for the kids and for the people that like to hear me playing. If they enjoy me playing, I enjoy playing” simplicity. Honesty.
Those bends are tearing my soul with joy.
They are tearing my soul. PERIOD
Yup he was a power bender, amazing, deep raw emotion in each bend 😶😎🎶🎸🙏🏼
Because of the way he taught himself, and the way the strings were upside down, he pulled his bends down instead of up.
The man played from the 50’s to the early 90’s, I was working in Memphis when he passed from a massive heart attack. What a unique guitar virtuoso
He really mean it..when he says,"..those of you who wish to have someone to love..(pauses..)like me..I'm alone.."good God..the expression on his face..this man really knows what the blues is all about..
He says..I'm a loner..:)
The interactions with his drummer are priceless 😭
i grew up on this blues then i raised my children off this
so have I,my don loves albert

msteve - only one person alive today to say if it is true...if he said it I’d think it’d true....
I can definitely hear it. I totally believe it.

I'm so glad I got to see him perform live in the early '80s. When giants walked the earth!
god................. the guitar cry's so beautifully....... fuck that tone......... I've watched about 20 times... and it never gets old
Love how he yells at his band during the first few bars! Dude be like come on! Wake the fuck up!
lightninboy1979 Albert was notorius for calling out the band and especially the sound man and I knew people who knew him and the word was that Albert was an ass kicker on and off the stage but at the same time a very sweet man, he just didn't play

This man has serious BLUES
Fucking hell. That outro. So hard to hold tears back. Shit.😞

the godfather of the blues I was lucky to have met him his music touched my soul
One of the best blues songs ever written. It speaks to your soul. God rest him. Just one of the all time best blues song.
Agree. Gary Moore used to do a killer version, but Jeff Healey’s is my favorite. Fire!

Thanks, I always thought this was an Albert King song. I just listened to the Fenton Robinson version, both are excellent.
The way the crowd started clapping on the off beat and he corrected them is so sick lol
He is teaching the blues.
The blues in the pure state ... bless from Argentina
Albert King is one of the best blues singer I have ever heard. . Thank God for giving the world this great artist. May he RIP

I don't want too much out of life except I hope to one day love something in the same way as Albert loved his guitar Lucy.
That's asking for trouble.
To love like that especially a woman is very dangerous.
Itll destroy your life. Itll break your heart with no hope.
It's better to have a woman love you like that and give your love to a guitar like Albert's Lucy.
Exactly dont waste your love on girls... Dream on my dear
...you can actually hear every emotion in every single notes, its amazing how this man can express so many things with six strings...
+eduardo arturo astudillo rodriguez its only 5, Albert never used the 6th, and rarely used the 5th

So much soul and rich emotion tinged with a unique rawness to his playing.
You can just see where Jimi, Stevie and Rory and so many others got their leads from.
Not sure we will ever see the likes of AK again.
Rest easy big man.
YEAH! Everybody say yeah! Greatest Blues guitarist of all time!!!!
he fixed their clapping
Well stated! All modern music genres owe a thanks to the early blues and jazz men. Without them, who knows where the hell we'd be now.
