I love this song so much. Love the rhythmic, driving, hypnotic sound and his voice is… yeah, just so good. Glad you loved it, too. When I first discovered this a few years ago, I had a renewed hope that maybe the blues could continue.
First time I heard him was the song Our Love and I thought he was somebody from the 70s that I had missed and I couldn’t believe it when I googled him and found out he is a current artist. I haven’t heard close to his whole catalog but I’ve heard enough to know he should definitely get more publicity than he does.
When I lived across country, my brother, and a couple friends would get together every Thursday night for dinner and making wine. We were finally able to do over 150 gallons per season (4) once we got into the groove. One stipulation was: Blues music only, on the stereo and Gary Clark was very new and popular about 10 years ago and we all felt this song and WHEN THE TRAIN PULLS IN.
I feel so embarrassed that I didn’t know about him until he was on a song with the foo fighters. But I’m a fan ever since. Dude reminds me so much of BB King. So good.
One of the best.....DIVE! The white dude on second guitar is Doyle Bramhall 2nd is also worth checking out. Also Doyle and Gary doing a MUDDY WATERS CUT SHE'S ALRIGHT LIVE A KILLER.
Gary's from Austin, played w/ SRV when he was a kid. This is after his first album came out. Now he has had several albums & an even better guitarist & style king. He's played w/ everyone & my favorite album is "The Story of Sonny Boy Slim" hands down a flawless album.
Gary Clark Jr. is the future of a long line of great guitar genius that has come down through the year. His future is so bright you gotta wear shades. I know you love Guitarist, Gary has a great catalog of songs you should play. I''ve seen him twice, it's spectacular. If you want to hear someone who is the father of bending strings and amazing playing, try Roy Buchanan. I own every record he ever made. No special effects, no pedals, just his guitar and bending the strings. Never got the respect he deserved. Jeff Beck adored him ('Cause We Ended As Lovers) is dedicated it to him. SRV said he was beyond anything he had ever seen. Gary Moore called him The Master. But he's mostly unknown except to the Guitar Gods. He was called The Master of The Telecaster. Old School Great.

This was his “coming out party”. No one had heard of him before this performance and that’s why he chose this song to be the main feature, “you gonna know my name by the end of the night”. Yeah everyone that was deep into music knew exactly who he was after this lol. Given that the audience had ZERO idea who he was I would say their reaction was actually pretty good. They recognized his talent even though he wasn’t known at the time even MID SONG , which if you know blues crowds, that only happens if you got real chops and a really good audience
Hey Biz, I wonder if you'd be interested in giving country music a listen. If so then, I'd like to suggest "Ricky Van Shelton - Oh Pretty Woman" (Live) I wouldn't be surprised if you've heard a clip of this tune from a movie, tv show or commercial. In 1999 this song was honored with a Grammy Hall of Fame award and was named one of Rock n Roll Hall of Fame's 500 songs that shaped Rock n Roll. I really enjoyed listening to Gary Clark Jr. again he has been truly neglected from RUclips reactions. I'm glad to see you rectify that, Biz
Much earlier he was touted as the next "Eric Clapton". The hype kinda misjudged his whole 'thing'. He's not Eric. He's a very very good Gary. Eric has had him down to Antigua for his guitar-fest, rehab fundraiser Crossroads. Well respected, shows up occasionally on music award shows, often as a guest or sideman. He good.
This is another great blues man that knows how to make a guitar sound like it is supposed to Love Garry Clark Jr

I'm so glad I found this reaction!!!
Let’s give Gary his flowers. Amazing artist.
NOW THAT!.... IS THE CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL!
Another one of our great Texas Bluesmen!
Love this guy! Was lucky enough to see him in concert a couple years ago. Awesome show! Great reaction! Haven't seen anyone else reacting to him.
I love Gary Clark Jr. Have seen him three times live and he blows audiences away! He gives all the emotions with his guitar and his voice.
First time I heard him was the song Our Love and I thought he was somebody from the 70s that I had missed and I couldn’t believe it when I googled him and found out he is a current artist. I haven’t heard close to his whole catalog but I’ve heard enough to know he should definitely get more publicity than he does.
Gary does ‘When My Train Rolls In’ also live.
This is good Biz ! ! ! !
Love this one
Live at the surf Lodge Convicts is another great one
Thanks for giving him a shot
Or When My Train Comes In from same set
Love Gary Clark Junior! Surprised you played something this recent. Good choice! Check out "You Don't Owe Me a Thing."
He was discovered by SRVs brother, Jimmy Vaughn. Taught how to play by his friend in school , a little white girl.

yes !
I have loved this guy for a long time!! He’s so talented 🎤🎶🎸♥️ Check out his song “Numb” 🔥
Nice one Biz!
I feel so embarrassed that I didn’t know about him until he was on a song with the foo fighters. But I’m a fan ever since. Dude reminds me so much of BB King. So good.
Gary Clark Jr. is always good, and so is Doyle Bramhall II, the guy in the yellow t-shirt.
One of the best.....DIVE! The white dude on second guitar is Doyle Bramhall 2nd is also worth checking out. Also Doyle and Gary doing a MUDDY WATERS CUT SHE'S ALRIGHT LIVE A KILLER.
I might share the same name, but I don't share the same talent! He's a great musician 😁

Doyle Bramhall II on second guitar (the leftie), also amazing on guitar...has done stints working for Clapton as a touring guitarist ...
From the same concert: ruclips.net/video/dcADRXDLL1M/видео.html

Does not get the recognition he deserves.

I think Travis County put him in the spotlight.
He does a great remake of Come Together by the Beatles.
Much earlier he was touted as the next "Eric Clapton". The hype kinda misjudged his whole 'thing'. He's not Eric. He's a very very good Gary. Eric has had him down to Antigua for his guitar-fest, rehab fundraiser Crossroads.

He good.
Might I recommend The North Mississippi All-Stars as a band your should give a listen
That was Eric Clapton blues fest n nobody k ew wtf Gary Clark jr. Was until the end of the night. Badass
Please listen to "Grinder" off of The Story of Sonny Boy Slim. Thx.
Bro it was im germany lmao
