    I had a fake ID in 1979 when I first discovered Son Seals at Wise Fools Pub in Chicago. I became a blues addict / "groupie" ever since. Every weekend was spent in the city seeing Son, Mighty Joe, Albert Collins, Otis Rush, Junior Wells, Koko Taylor, Big Twist and so many more. I total blues junkie I was. LOL! So much so that I am now 60 and Buddy Guy's tax CPA! Funny how things work out.

    I went to a lot of concerts in the early ‘70’s, with a lot of big names, but Elvin Bishop will always stand out as the one concert where absolutely EVERYONE was out of their seats and dancing to his rhythm and blues. Makes me smile every time I recollect that night. So, so FUN!

    Nobody but Elvin Bishop would strut out into the crowd, sit in between a couple of fans and play a solo just for them. That's classy without even realizing it...
    The dude was all about fun.

    If you love music a Elvin Bishop show was must see live music event. Last time I heard him perform was a benefit concert at the Fox in Oakland early 2000's with Bonnie Raitt , Steve Miller and the Doobie Bro's .. I was smokey so I forget who the benefit was for but I'll never forget how great the music was.

  • @Vodichka9

    Elvin got a free ride at any Ivy League school of his choice. He chose Univ of Chicago, met Paul Butterfield, and the rest is blues history.

  • @6855mike
    @6855mike 9 месяцев назад +2

    Most of you probably know that Elvin got his big break when Mike Bloomfield left the Paul Butterfield blues band, and Elvin got a chance to shine.
    Some of his best playing is on the Butterfield album, “the resurrection of pig boy crabshaw“ and you should check it out.
    This video was up many years ago, and somehow I lost track of it. So glad to see it again.

    Bishop is a unique talent, able to blend his Okie country style with rock, rhythym & blues
    Great slide player and songwriter as well..
    With two blues legends...Mighty Joe Young & Son Seals...Love Mighty Joe
    Son Seals is one of my favorites...he lays it down with a relentless groove
    The 3 guitar head cuttin at the end is awesome, even if the sound quality is below par

    It’s a shame when they wait so long to induct someone into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame. Yet I am glad because I had always heard his name, my dad had Paul Butterfield albums. I’m glad I was reminded that day in 2015 to re-check out his stuff, unbelievable.

    How great it is to see this. Elvin is definitely a piece of work but things haven't always been fun and games in his life.
    I'm so glad he's still with us and making music. If there isn't a statue in Tulsa dedicated to Elvin there sure as hell
    should be, but one in Chicago would be just fine.

    I was fortunate enough to see Elvin a couple times in the early '80s in small clubs in Northern California. Pretty sure some of this band was with him but there was a helluva lot of alcohol involved so I can't be sure. Unbelievable talent and energy.

    Thank you 1000 times for posting this ! I watched this on a 14 inch black and white TV when PBS first broadcast this show. I bought a bunch of albums from these guys over the years. I knew Elvin and Mighty Joe could play but I had no idea at the time how good Son Seals was. I don't think PBS ever rebroadcast this show but I hope one day they will ! Thanks again, you made my night !

      This was the BADDEST show that PBS EVER broadcast back in 1979. I had taped this on my VCR and played the Hell out of it until the tape died. I was blessed that this finally popped up on You Tube. At the top of my Favorite Concerts of ALL time. The other one was Fats Domino on Austin City Limits.🤪🥰🙃
