How cool to come across this, 40+ years later. Worked in a small print shop and in walks this guy, THIS guy. Long story short, we printed up show flyers or whatever they're called, ( that store owners would put up in the windows, etc.) He walks in and GIVES me this album and signs it. Took it home and played the Hell out of it.
I remember when Eddy Clearwater and his band plays in Mexico City in 1981 in one of those blues festivals in Arena Mexico (A place for wrestling and box). It was a magical blues night with one hour of this blues virtuoso.
I first Heard and was given this Album by a friend at the Juneteenth Blues Festival in Houston in 1981. When I heard--One Day At a Time--it became one of those songs that is to this day one of my Theme songs....It still speaks my attitudes 39 years later, and I do live that way.
Saw "The Chief" in 1997 in a club on Rush Street in Chicago with my buddy Kevin Lewis. Two things stand out to me: 1.) Eddy played his Strat left-handed, but he had the strings set up the way you would if he played right handed and 2.) Eddy sat at our table during a break and Kevin said if ever played in Saginaw, MI then he was staying at Kevin's place, no argument! Great gentleman, The Chief. RIP Eddy
Yo,creí haber oído música pero estaba herrado,nada qe envidiár a Otis,Mayall,Richie o quizás Chuck o BB,Clapton, Still,Blomfiel y Kooper por nombrar más conocidos! Excelente y pegajoso blues! El myster desde Boavista, saludos Alós qele gusta la buena música!
The ensemble sound is as good as any blues band, including Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon, B.B. King or Aaron Walker. Amazing talent for expressing reality in all these songs. The music is a textbook on blues styles, from shuffles to jump blues.
@@LoveOneAnotherHeSaid Yes, he sounds as great as any of those guys, without a doubt he is a great reference for the next generation of blues masters. Too much talent, and is very good in all that blues styles, realy
Great Album...how can you get Carey& Lurrie Bell, Casey Jones, Abb Locke, Chuck Smith and all these dudes in the same studio? WOW!. The saxes with the harmonica is rarely done, and they use it to great effect here. I got to see Eddy once in Chicago and met him...very nice guy he signed a CASSETTE(!) I bought from him. What an entertainer too...Musta been close to seven feet tall with that cowboy hat he had on that night. Anyway, I miss the Chief.
Yes I see what you are trying to do here. An Indian standing on a Horse meaning that you are trying to tell me I am a "Savage" or a "Warrior" or perhaps even worse that I am a "Jawad" wich means a "Horse" in Arabic and that you control me with your MK Ultra Bullshit The Guitar is a subliminal reference to the Ultraviolent movie "Desperado" starring Antonio Banderas (1995) "Eddie Brock" is the real name of the fictional character "Venom" that transforms into a Monster and Eats People in Marvel Finally the typography of "The Chief" title on the album cover is exactly the same as the one in the opening credits of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" (1998) a movie with Johnny Depp and Benicio Deltoro about two friends who indulge in all Types of Drugs especially Psychedelics. Peace Next
@@jawadkhelil5742 oh what a tríp man 😝 all those is... Hahaha funny. Something is missing, Johnny's fear and loathing in LV is like homer eating chili peppers on desert jajjajaja
You are exactly right. You should tell everyone about this, I’m sure they’ll be in for a shock when they hear how Eddie “Clearwater” Brock is trying to mind control us

How so cool!

THAT would have been so GREAT! So fortunate!

Did he ever stay at Kevin's place?
@@johnspranger9046 I would have loved to see Eddy and his band play 🎶🎶 enjoying their music with a glass of red wine.
the tone of the guitar is just what the name suggests : crystal clear . thanks for the post !
HOWGH !

This stuff sounds good!
studio sound quality , live groove feeling ✌
Saw "The Chief" multiple times at The Kingston Mines in Chicago with my friend Jim Fredricks...Where the hell are you Jim?
Good stuff!
👍
The first great solo at 6:10
@oldgrannywheels The horn section provides a good background, and generates a very interesting tension!
C H I C A G O :P

bon ritme no el conexia bona veu i bon guitarrista
Yes I see what you are trying to do here.
An Indian standing on a Horse meaning that you are trying to tell me I am a "Savage" or a "Warrior"
or perhaps even worse that I am a "Jawad" wich means a "Horse" in Arabic and that you control me with your MK Ultra Bullshit
The Guitar is a subliminal reference to the Ultraviolent movie "Desperado" starring Antonio Banderas (1995)
"Eddie Brock" is the real name of the fictional character "Venom" that transforms into a Monster and Eats People in Marvel
Finally the typography of "The Chief" title on the album cover is exactly the same as the one in the opening credits of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" (1998) a movie with Johnny Depp and Benicio Deltoro about two friends who indulge in all Types of Drugs especially Psychedelics. Peace Next
