Otis spann is thee best man with hands in any ebony and ivory instrument, person, experience,or real life expression any human being can ever experience until the Man comes around to set us all straight! God bless Otis spann!
I remember seeing Muddy's band in Chicago with Sam Lawhorne on second guitar and Otis on piano. Cotton came by, sat in, and about blew the roof off. I'd never heard Otis sing until that night and when he opened his mouth I nearly fell off my chair. Lord, love a duck! what voice.
I’m an intense Blues player. Not until 5 years ago was I able to appreciate them until I went to a Blues jam with stipulations on the 1, 4 and 5. Now i’m hooked
Looks like you didn't watch the entire video. Colin was the narrator, which was good enough, but later on, he played along with Willie D. Don't ask me how they did it, but it was great. Go watch the video again, this time 'till the end.
Legendary composition ❤it 🥳

Priceless compilation !!!
Excellent video.
I did the editing on that show with CBC, blending old and new similar to Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole videos.
I was fortunate to have seen Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee several times in Toronto, in the 60's and 70's.
George “Harmonica” Smith is ferocious on Mojo Workin’. Not only is he ferocious; he’s perfect!
Awesome harp playing yes. I believe though that this is the great James Cotton as opposed to glorious George?
Thank you for Sharing the Blues.
What I would have given to have be there!
Got a whole new respect for the stand up bass. Thank you Willie
Times that can be no more......What a great Post!
THAT GATHERING WAS IN TORONTO
Vaya coleccion de maestros muchas gracias.

great research on the blues :)
Brilliant!
I've had this on VHS tape for years. Could Otis be any more jacked up on "Ain't Nobody's Biz..."? Thanks for the great post!
Paketillinen asiaa🤗
What does this have to do with Colin James? lol

It was editing trickery and I did that show back in 1996 at CBC. We got Colin and intertwined him with the greats.
