Long live Jimmy Dawkins! Saw him in a small Chicago blues bar in the early 90's. Was literally 5 feet away from him center stage. Oh, what a show that was. He was on fire! Too bad like all the rest of the ol' school blues musicians he's gone. Haven't had my live blues fix in a long time. Been too long. Am in withdrawal. Nothing beats a live blues show in a small bar. His CD's are the next best thing.
Jimmy Dawkins has spent much of his career in the shadows of more celebrated Chicago blues artists. Although largely unsung among the '60's Blues hierarchy, his guitar style is full of tension and spicy licks. This is a marvellous example of this. Wonderful stuff!
Da,un băiat minunat care are carisma și farmec aparte ❤😜 ! ARE ceva uluitor un lirism muzical cu armonii florale și balans ,emană o energie pozitivă și excitanta ce te trezește din reverie și te trezești la zenit intersecția verticală cu nadirul !!❤❤🤲
Now here I am playing the blues, and doing the very best that I can The whole world is talking down on me, but I know they just don't understand So I'm going on singing and playing the blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man Going on singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man When it comes down to money and other things, I don't have none But when I play my guitar, I have a whole lots of fun World down on me, I know they don't understand Going on singing and playing my blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man Going on singing and playing my blues, just a lonely guitar man Listen: lost the woman that I loved, I think she got another man I tried to do everything for her, but I know she don't understand Going on singing and playing the blues, oh, she don't understand Singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man 'Cause I'm just a lonely guitar man
Just discovered Jimmy Dawkins via a facebook link. I've been playing blues guitar for quite some years but man is he something!!! Very deliquete playing. Probably gonna become a fan:))
Seen both of them several times. Jimmy's way better. He's in another league, like Byther Smith, Magic Slim, Son Seals and Little Ed all of whom I was extremely fortunate to have seen several times in the mid 90's in small blues bars (where the blues is meant to be experienced) in Chicago, Buffalo and Toronto.

Now here I am playing the blues, and doing the very best that I can
The whole world is talking down on me, but I know they just don't understand
So I'm going on singing and playing the blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man
Going on singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man
When it comes down to money and other things, I don't have none
But when I play my guitar, I have a whole lots of fun
World down on me, I know they don't understand
Going on singing and playing my blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man
Going on singing and playing my blues, just a lonely guitar man
Listen: lost the woman that I loved, I think she got another man
I tried to do everything for her, but I know she don't understand
Going on singing and playing the blues, oh, she don't understand
Singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man
'Cause I'm just a lonely guitar man
just found Jimmy Dawkins via a Bues fan page I'm facebooked to, Damn, he's mighty fine!

Can't get enough of this tune. Really do like Dawkins and nearly all his tunes. Got turned on to him through a comment that Walter Trout made.
Very great Blues...
Love this blues sing and play the blues.
Pure smoke! Great Bro. by Ron Hicks Project
Музыку Джимми играет с небес,
Соловьиными трелями подпевает лес.
Услышав блюзы расцвела сирень
И нам в подарок роскошный день.
I dont know anyone besides me that knows this, this is blues
Equal to Buddy Guy or even better.Real bluesman with soul and blue guitar chops.R.I.P. Jimmy.
He was even better my friend! That's for sure! A real Bluesman with a real feeling! Buddy Guy is a businessman, a showman!
Jimmi Dawkins is the real deal, so many good songs have come from him, can't say that, for many others.
Last years Jimmy got the blues, Buddy only honors.
