GC Jr. like other "greats" seems to own this one by the way he's playing so masterfully, so. natural. Just as he did some 20 yrs ago, at the 1st annual Antones' blues fest. circa'02. Long live the blues. WtG gc Jr, jb Amarillo tx
The first time I heard this lad play, I heard the good ol' soul of the blues, but young again. The way he plays.. the way he sings! To paraphrase Noel Coward, it's like a 21st Century kind of blues. Such brilliance!
Kristina what a ridiculously Asinine thing to say ,Gary Clark Junior Is highly talented And may even be Perhaps the future of Blues but never better than his predecessors
It's nice to see gary touching base all over the place. He's playing with Mayer, picking up some augmented blues from the festi scene, and still playing that R&B blues and soul... I don't see why we should identify him as some color or race but I guess that something people don't seem to escape within their mentality anymore... I have come to accept nationality but its always popping up especially in this changing world where people are being given more opportunity to work for something... Well Gary Clark is still awesome I can tell he's drifting from traditional blues a bit but I am sure he'll find his way back to muddy waters.
The Jazz stuff is a nod to B.B. King who was strongly influenced by Charlie Christian. You can really hear that influence in this B.B. King performance ruclips.net/video/LWLAAzOBoBI/видео.html
@@bluesadvocate5397 BB made all the other versions look like a red-headed step child in 2000. I don’t like Clapton on vocals. Clapton never had a good blues voice, but can play that guitar.
Goes to prove that you dont need an expensive top of the line guitar to sound good. Personally I dont understand why people pay up to 5 times or more for practically the same guitar, unless you have enough money to blow, especially when a lot of people end up changing out the Pickups / Humbuckers anyways. I dont know, Thats just my opinion on it.
@@_MOORE_1986 For what it is worth, GCJ is an incredible player. He could make a piano wire strung between 2 planks of wood sound great. The guitar he is playing here is a vintage Epiphone made in Kalamazoo, MI and has a lot of serious mojo.
m1o9o8r6e _ you’re right you don’t need an expensive guitar to sound good, but this Epiphone that GCJ is playing is a Casino model from the old Epiphone company before Gibson bought them, it has nothing to do with the new Epiphone company who make cheaper Gibson copies. This Casino will cost more than a lot of Gibsons
BB King made this song though. I don’t like Clapton on the one in 2000, but BB on the 2000 is so amazing. His vocals got so much better as he aged. Perfect song for him. Nice and slow 12 bar
True that.. Other factors involved. The tone wood is there with the Epiphones but the wiring harnesses and the winding of the pickups are sub par. I picked up a Epi Wildkat hollow body with the Chinese wiring harness and sub par pickup winding of the P-90`s. Upgraded the wiring harness pot switches etc. sent my pickups out to be wound to vintage specs and now have a phenomenal ... custom built up Epi with solid vintage tone that I`ll never sell. I took a 500$ Epi, sank about 350$ into it (Bigsby upgrade as well) and now have a beautiful guitar that will stand up to 3000$ guitars in a blind test. I can dive bomb the Bigsby and it will hold tune. Pickups are not microphonic and I can control the feedback. I love the art of controlled feedback. Clean tones are vintage quality. Don`t knock the Epiphones. They can be modified and built up to your personal preference. I got the limited edition wildcat with a solid Hawaiian Koa top mahogany body and rosewood finger board... The Chinese pickup wraps and wiring harness are garbage. Built up.... and this is an unbelievably high quality guitar with vintage tone that I will never sell. It is absolutely beautiful in every way. Add a boutique tube amp or a good Fender amp and it is like GOD is talking through this instrument. I`ve got a real Les Paul standard and an Eric Johnson strat... And I`m grabbing my Epiphone 80% of the time.
You can get used gibson pickups on reverb or ebay and then a good epi will sound indistinguishable. Did that with an eastman and it sounds like a memphis at 1/3 the price.
Ryan Chadwick It's not a chibson.It's an Epiphone.And Epiphone is not a made in China cheap version of Gibson,it's a company that has given historically guitar models to a lot of great musicians
Definitely not anything to do with Eric Clapton. I swear some of you cats thinks SRV and Clapton invented to blues when all they did is cheapen it and cheese it up.
Ok pal are you having a bad day? When you don"t like something find something you do like. Life's too short. I mean you not only didn't like it you wasted your time talking about it. Go play it the way you like it. Then see if someone trolls you.
Не позорься чувак. Это не кавер, это бессмысленное попугайство. Ты вообще слышал про BB KINGа? У него совершенно другой и уникальный ТАЙМИНГ! А голимую пентатонику чесать несложно. Это все умеют, даже у нас в Подольске.❤

If I close my eyes, it's like B.B king is playing...
SUPERRR FUCKING TASTEFUL. So many blues players overplay their hand and the music suffers. But this man understands dynamics!
This young bluesman. Gary Clark jr is pure gold. I heard some of Howling Wolf
We all share at least one thing. Our taste in music evolved in a good way :) that’s why we are here!
Heard this while driving. Almost had to pull over!! Damn.
I had the opportunity to see and hear his performance live in Prague 2015 and I was glad I did. It was a great show..

Love the way Gary plays the 3 O'Clock Blues. This is not an Eric Clapton or B. B. King Cover. It is a Lowell Fulson Tune.
I come back to this video so much. One of my favorite performances. That solo is so damn amazing !
The first time I heard this lad play, I heard the good ol' soul of the blues, but young again. The way he plays.. the way he sings! To paraphrase Noel Coward, it's like a 21st Century kind of blues. Such brilliance!
WITHOUT MUSIC LIFE WOULD BE AN ERROR.....
Style is so smooth!!!! My fav video of the song Gary have done eva
LOVE THIS MUSIC, IT STIMULATES THE MIND
He is a master what a genius thank you I love Gary
that's what I like about Gary Clark he does it all,
Very very good, I love the blues, He is talented,
A Star is Born. Are you KIDDING ME>>>
I have not had the privilege of seeing him live yet. I simply can not wait to cross paths with a gig! 🎵🎶❤️🎸🎤🎸🎤🎼🎵❤️
Hands down best performer I’ve ever seen live! 🙏🏽🙏🏽 just absolutely amazing on the ax. The whole band is great
This could be a Peter Green ´´Tone´´ Instant blues from the first second!! Thanks for uploading this. Cheers!
God I love those P-90`s
Very nice. Love the emotion behind every note.
Youngest incharge of the blues
Wow ain’t never heard or seen inside man’s soul till now come on bro do ya thingman
Чувак невообразимо КРУТ . Достойный наследник традиций .Сколько труда .... Респект . Блюз ЖИВ .
We have a new King of the blues. GC KING Awesom
Nah...
This guy is right up there with Clapton, Bonamassa & Stevie Ray !!!!
Hes not that good bruh no were close
it still is and always was a Lowell Fulson song. BB King and all the others just covered it.
So in loooooove with you and your music.
My ol'pal and former bandmate, Johnny "Rattlesnake"Radelate on drums!!!!
good ! merci Gary !
Beautiful playing! :) Gary. Classic number!.
Loved it simply loved it!
Grande homenagem a BB King o eterno Rei do Blues!
Oh Lawd! Johnny Bradley! Oh Lawd!
Mr. Clarke digging into to this blues track.
nice..! love it
genius musician, composes, plays, and sings ......all extraordinary. best at blues. better than all his blues predecessors.
Kristina what a ridiculously Asinine thing to say ,Gary Clark Junior Is highly talented And may even be Perhaps the future of Blues but never better than his predecessors
B4 you say he’s better than his predecessors I would suggest you listen to Mike Bloomfield.
Amazing player. Wanna hear him play live .
This was BB Kings first hit back in the 50s
Ah right now you know what the blues does to me sweet hart 💞🥰
I can relate Gary Clark jr.
Wow.Gary is gr8
Holy shit this solo on the end is killing me
Superb !
Oh so good :) ya baby

I think you made it about color/race by saying that. Its awesome music. No need to get political (or racist) about it.
blues the beginning of it all
Also anyone hear the Jazz stuff he throws in there ? Charlie Christian like licks.
The Jazz stuff is a nod to B.B. King who was strongly influenced by Charlie Christian. You can really hear that influence in this B.B. King performance

wicked solo
awesome
thanks for posting, dan43a
great, he is so talented
7:00 Is like opening a massive can of Kick-Assery!
Great!
Wow Wow
badass!
yes yes yes
This is NOT an Eric Clapton cover. This is and always will be a BB King tune. Clapton just covered it the way Gary is doing here.
Clapton and BB did record this together for "Riding with the King" - that's probably why the uploader titled it as such.
Asib . It’s Originely Written by Lowel Fulson, By The Way.....
Lowell Fulson, not BB King --
@@bluesadvocate5397 BB made all the other versions look like a red-headed step child in 2000. I don’t like Clapton on vocals. Clapton never had a good blues voice, but can play that guitar.
@@NewHandle4Real
Check out this version by Scott Holt Band. Scott is currently the singer/ guitarist for Foghat.
Great Blues Team wihes and a mutch of luck
Stupid good!
Anyone tabbed this out? Where can I hear more like this?
Lowell Fulson recorded "Three O'Clock Blues" in 1946 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_O'Clock_Blues
Nice playing. Drummer looks like Philthy Animal from Motorhead
Gary’s my brother ! Ya
♥♥♥
brought to you by Epiphone..( slaps the Gibby fans right upside their noggins)
I have an Epiphone and a Gibson.... all in one guitar.
Epiphone bought Gibson in 1944.

Lowell Fulson cover -- NOT Eric Clapton or BB King.
But NOBODY sings it like B

John Holiday in Memphis is the guy for this stuff!!!
3 O'Clock Blues
People like to knock Epiphone just because they are cheaper... but in all reality the sound is just as good as a Gibson.
Tyler Hornback not really, but when you hook it up to a good amp, it's hard to know the difference

Gotta love them chibson guitars

6:31 Stevie Ray!!!
Guess you never heard stevie ray.
Sure, sounds like Riviera Paradise, good ear. His overall playing is different from srv though. No one comes close to his feel
@@j-pduyck597
of course, each musician is unique
Come on..... all alone no one one the phone ... what song is it people
Wow a black dude playing the blues how rare these days
look timmy a trump supporter!
i wish more black kids played blues these days. hip hop and rap is killing an amazing, soulful & beautiful genre
1:30 BB singature lick :)
nossa!!!
I thought this was a BB King Bobby Blue Bland cover???
Esse cara pra mim bate o Hendrix, talento, técnica e sem droga pesada que estragou muita gente.
Was this Robert Johnson originally?
+oscarw567
i think lowell fulson's
He plays the blues better than John Mayer for sure.
Stop comparing dickface
Bitch ill say whatever the fuck i feel.
+haloskater24 I agree both great players but gary has the feeling. I wonder why he didn't often play with bb. Now it's too late rip
I think they both play it well, just different vibes to the blues. I actually live like 10 mins away from GCJ
I do prefer gary, but Mayer is way more skilled
What guitar is this?
+Sterkan93 It appears to be an Epiphone Casino.
+Sterkan93 it's an Epiphone Casino
I think John Mayer started with pop music. And I dont really see the problem with it.
John Mayer started as a blues player which later became Pop .
JAY WATTS
Smokin. Let's hope he doesn't go down the John Mayer path into pop music.
why the fuck do you mix Clark whit the other burritos?
no, that's miles away man...sorry to say. He can play, maybe he should find his own sound.
I'm sorry, but this sounds like a garage band with a third year guitar student in the lead.
😉

that poor fucking guitar never had a chance

Nope.
He's playing like he afraid of the guitar, i can barely hear him.
