Calvin Russell, Soldier, HD version, Live @ Contrabendo
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 апр 2013
- Shortly after this recording was done, Calvin Russell died, leaving his old and new fans saddened.
I count myself among those new fans, having discovered this artist with the Contrabendo CD+DVD (my first music purchase in two years), and I REALLY regret I didn't discover this true bluesman and rocker earlier.
If there's a chance, he's leaving a wife behind, please, try to purchase some of his art?
Contrabendo is an AMAZING disc, bundled with CD and DVD, and it doesn't belong to Universal or some other fucking Big Company. Unfortunately, finding Contrabendo on sale has become excessively difficult, it's not even on streaming platforms, so I will look the other way if you resort to less legal venues cough
Soldier is my favorite song of the lot, so, here it is, in HD quality. Enjoy, and remember, support the REAL artists while they're still alive :)
EDIT and UPDTATE: here is the much-demanded information on the musicians, taken from the CD's internal print. Besides Calvin Russell, and for the entire album (no Soldier-specific information was available), there are Jeff Gautier (drums), Fred Payonne (bass), Eric Sauviat (guitar, vocal), Gabriel (Gabe) Rhodes (guitar), and Markus Bommer (keyboards, vocal). Paul Personne plays in the disc, but not in that song, in another one, Behind The 8 Ball.

Als letztes Jahr meine große Liebe starb ,fand ich durch Zufall diese Lied und war so traurig und begeistert ,mein Mann war Soldat und wurde in Afghanistan schwer verletzt und kann mit einem Posttraumatischen Störung nach Deutschland zurück!!Er schwor unter Eid,sein Heimatland zubeschützen ,aber nicht In den sinnlosen Krieg nach Afghanistan geschickt zu werden!!!Er hatte Befehl aus dem Bergepanzer etwas zu kontrollieren aber sah das ein Schnürsenkel nicht fest war und sein "sehr guter Kollege "sagte:Diddy Ich gehe schon!!Das nächste was er hörte war eine Explosion!!!Sein Freund war war auf eine Miene getreten!!Er rannte über 1 Stunde rum und suchte die Beine seines Freundes!!Doch er fand sie nie!!! ""WER KENNT NOCH DIE AUSSAGE:ES IST KRIEG UND KEINER GEHT HIN??!!!!!!😢😢
⁰😢Für alle de starben t verletzt oder verkrüppelt wurden!!😢
Danke Dir !!🎉Nur für Dich!!Die Trauer hört nicht auf!Ich habe mich sehr über Deine Antwort gefreut!!Liebe Grüße EVAI
Aus welchem Film hast denn du das?
In Afghanistan sind deutsche Soldaten gestorben, um dieses Land Demokratie zu lehren, was nicht bedacht wurde ,die Mehrheit der "Afghanen wollen keine Demokratie . Es tut mir leid um deinen Man.Er ist aber hingegangen,in den Krieg
I never knew this wonderful musician until 3 wks ago, when I came across this song.,but to know he passed after is rather tragically sad. What a great voice... Lyrics in the song, musical arrangement, but more so that I never listened to him when he was alive. RIP great man.
Awesome dude thanks Calvin rip great one Tony Wolf
J'adore cette chanson
Nous l'ecoutions très souvent quand nous étions ensemble.
Elle est le souvenir de nos jours heureux.
Hélas, la maladie nous a séparé.
Quand je l'écoute tous mes souvenirs sont vivants
Encore merci pour cette belle chanson
me too..that lyric..33*
Men play music . As a farewell Good By. 😂
il y a une vingtainne d'années, un bar, un mec au bar, il parle anglais, je discute avec lui comme je peux, il est avec ses musiciens, il me dit qu'il fait un concert se soir a la vapeur a Dijon, moi ,photographe amateur je lui fait part que je voudrais bien faire quelques photos mais je suis fauché, il me donne un backstage et me dit mon gars tu viens et tu fait les photos que tu veux,tu ira ou tu veux. inoubliable ! repose en paix mon ami; il me reste des dizaines de diapos en souvenir.......
Du putain d'acier en musique !
C'est peut-être la 800 ème fois que j'écoute ce morceau incroyable de l'Acca d'Acca sans jamais me lasser !
...une tuerie comme tout l'album ! d'ailleurs
I'm fighting my own sorrow with Calvin for over a decade now. Never had the oportunity to see him perform live, but the music he left us tells me of a great human being with all the sins and blessings one can do in a lifetime... A true warrior in his heart gave me the strength to overcome a lot of difficulties in my time. This song particulary inspires me to be a better man. That's the power in music, the emotions hidden within.
ThankYou for everything Calvin and may you rest in peace...
enterrible, Thank you for the beautiful comment. Yeah, between Calvins, own life, this song, and his voice; can carry you through a lot. Hope your burdens have lessoned, hope the music will always pull you through. Peace.
🧡
Well said, friend
His Liveshow was great… pure, only music.. no big show and drama.. only a true bluesmen there playing great music live! So sad him dead.. the best one goes first 😢
Hi
Es macht mich sprachlos... Grandioser Sänger, was für ein Musiker!
Thank you Russell ! Soul rest in peace 🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷🌹🌷
Il y a 15 ans dans un petit bled du pas de calais, un mec, un bouteille de Bourbon, une table, une chaise 2 guitares...En plein air, concert gratuit, inconnu pour les gens qui passaient là par hasard...Le plus beau concert de ma vie ( et j en ai fait).............
veinard
bah mon vieux, j'aurai tripé d'etre la aussi
Comme tous ces moments imprévus, ces dons de musiciens en pleine rue restent des souvenirs impérissables , loins des concerts programmés...merci à vous ,musiciens de toutes origines pour nous faire partager ces moments uniques!!!Bravo🎼
Bonjour, c'était l'artiste préfèré de mon frère. Juste génial
vu au festival des jeunes talents à St-Quentin (02) dans les années 90, la bouteille de four roses au pied du micro, ce mec était une légende...
Je suis l'un de ces "nouveaux amis." Ce qui m'a touché, Calvin, οutre ton indéniable talent, ta zique et ce que tu nous racontes, c'est ta simplicité. Tu me répondras, d'où que tu sois, que c'est le cas de bien des bluesmen. Simple comme le blues. 💙 et 💛. Mais tu sais, à mon âge, monsieur Russell , "être simple" c'est tout bon. La simplicité ne tergiverse pas, elle va droit au cœur, et puis elle certifie l'authenticité. Merci Calvin. ;)
Super....musique et paroles qui reveillent les souvenirs.....merci
Hug moi routard Yop 👍🤘🏼🍺🎶🎸
Super 👁️👁️⚡🦊
Tu as tout dit...je l ai vu 2 fois en live...tjrs la mm simplicité qui t accroche l ame et le coeur...so long Calvin 🙏🍻

R.I.P. Calvin, thanks for sharing your talent with us and for your great songs !
That was so badass. Every instrument was right on time and you could hear them all. That was absolutely beautiful and amazing
Do you hear any influence in there from say .. .. lynnerd skinnnerd ? .. my bet is yes ...not a bad thing .. listen to when to gold top guitar slos
That guittar solo on the gold top is damn near freebird .. ...
Vu au travendo à ❤Une excellence cet homme, si peu adulé en ses terres 😢,The voyageur
Trabendo, Mathilde, Jorisse
Tout simplement magnifique.
Merci M Calvin Russell pour vos œuvres qui resteront des perles rares pour tout ceux qui apprécient la vraie musique. Vous êtes l'un des plus grands artistes de ce siècle, méconnu à tord, où que vous soyez, nous continuerons à vous écouter et apprécier votre héritage.
😊
Hoy 20 de Febrero 2023 vuelvo a escucharlo y vuelve a llenarme el alma y golpearme el corazon. Pienso que hay gente que no tiene el derecho de morir y dejarnos sin poder seguir disfrutandolo. Gracias por siempre Calvin Russell
Loved
So l am
Un des meilleurs bluesmen tout simplement avec 1 voix unique. C'était sa vie.... 👍🙏
I want to thank you for all of the music you made for us. Fly high beautiful man ❤
Beautiful music
Calvin Russell. Beautiful song, beautiful soul, great band. Would you expect anything else from a soldier we would all aspire to be.
Penso che sia uno dei brani che ti fanno "viaggiare"!...voce unica che trasmette emozioni incredibili. Questa poi è la versione che difficilmente potrà essere superata!
I stumbled upon this “Diamond in the Rust” and immediately fell in love with this one of a kind “Bluesman.” While listening I read the description/info and had tears rolling down my face by 2 mins in. I can’t believe he slipped under my radar, but thanks to Oliver his music and legacy will keep him with us every time we listen to his timeless blues. A Sub for Life. Thank you for an excellent HD Quality vid. 11-27-22.

Rest In Peace old friend 🎸✨
From France.
on ne peut pas s'en lasser,je peux l'écouter en boucle toute la journée
MOI AUSSI....C'est EXCELLENT !✌🙏
Me too. Absolutely fantastic song.
For those of us who are combat veterans, this song holds great meaning. Thank you Mr. Calvin Russell for your beautiful talent. Rest in peace Trooper.
Oui l ami❤
Bosnië 1993/1994❤ great song
Just absolutely worldclass honest 🎸🎸🎸bluesrock
This is why electric guitars are build , thx for sharing and having musicians like these guys to take us all up to higher grounds
RIP Calvin, gone ways to early.
Thank you France for embracing this great artist when his own country wouldnt give him a chance. And thank you for giving him back to us to appreciate. God bless you soldier. RIP.
Thank you Texas, thank you USA for the gift they send us.
Jean Vignes, Wish I could have seen him in France, Viva la France. These performances are great. You must come to Austin, Texas some day. Plenty more music where Calvin came from. God bless.
Wo ! thank you John ! My real name is Jean-Michel , family name : Vignes.
JM like John Mayer :)
i was born on an october the third , just like SRV :)
I know very well Houston TX and i came in Austin couple of time. But i would be so happy to be welcome by someone like you.
I am a independant financial advisor but also a musician , holding a left hand Strat !
Jean Michel, Nice to know you've been here. Your a lefty like so many other great ones...I'm traveling now. Playing where I can. Singer/songwriter. Up in the Niagara Falls area Buffalo, NY. Tryin to keep it simple, real, and as close to the truth as I can. Weapon of choice right now 1970 Martin D-28, also 1978 Guild 12 string. Will be in Austin in fall. September. Glad we share a mutual admiration for a warrior like Calvin. Will be posting some songs on u tube in the next month when I get to Nashville. Would be glad to welcome you if I ever get settled. Take care. Peace my brother in song.
Hi John,
If my business go ahead like it should do , may be i 'll be in town ( Austin) around end of september / early october for my birthday :)
Can't wait for your posts on U tube.
Take care my brother in song .
En ces temps incertains et difficiles ....les sons de guitare me donnent toujours de l'espoir. Quelle merveille.
je t'aimerai toujours Calvin... Cette chanson m'a sauvé la vie... Merci du fond de mon être...
Découvert sur la page d’une amie, qui avait des goûts de musique extraordinaires. Cette musique m’a tout de suite touché au fin fond de mon coeur et a réveillé une nostalgie lancinante! Merci à elle pour ce partage
4 Weeks a go I found this song by luck and I came always back to hear it again, its so great, I lost my chance to see him on stage
Always glad this song touches new people. FYI, it's part of a full album, 2 CDs, it's totally worth it. It's almost impossible to find it on sale (dead recording company, unfortunately), but there are other less legal means, for lack of other options...
Made the same mistake with Stevie Ray. Had a chance to see him at a last minute free outdoor venue, and I was too wrapped up at the time with what looking back I now realize was stupid shit. We all too often live and learn the hard way!
J'ai beaucoup écouté cette chanson sans j'avais m'en lasser. J'aime Calvin Russell 🖤🖤😍👍😘👏😁.
Mais oui tu as raison, un souffle d air, de liberté. ❤
For the first time in Calvins life - it seems - he smiles, fascinated by the musicians who loves him. Thank you for giving this beautiful song to us all!
This man was a fantastic entertainer and l thank him and his brilliant band for their beautiful music.
Superbe, je l'ai vu en concert dans les années 90' en france et il était tout simplement magnifique!!!
Ah bon ?
Ah ! Je te rejoins absolument. Merveilleux, authentique, jeu musical en osmose.
R.I.P. so sad.. a big musician go to early... again! You can feel the Pain of his life in this Song.. see him 3 Times in Switzerland.. great memories! Thanks 🙏🏾 men!
J'ai toujours pensé que c'était Calvin Russell qui jouait les solos de guitare. J'avoue que j'ai été déçue mais bon la voix est là et rien que pour ça ça en vaut la peine. Chapeau l'artiste.
merveilleux Calvin Russel, où que tu sois et sous quelle forme que tu sois, je te salue ! merci pour les moments de bonheur que tu m'as donné ,
je partage cet avis , merci Calvin pour ces supers moments musicaux
Daniele Chany il manque.
En écoutant inlassablement tous ces morceaux, je ne sors jamais indemne. Je vis et ressens au plus profond de moi ses compositions.
@@renemattei7239 , Quand on ressent une musique au plus profond de soi même ,cela veut tout simplement dire qu'une partie de son âme a quelque chose de semblable à celui du chanteur.........
Tant de souvenirs sur scène...et en backstage....gracias hombre...porte la vida
I'm a late comer, would of given anything to have sat down and drank a beer with Calvin, like so many said they listen to this song over and over, never looses its touch, solute old school RIP
So pain and persistent…
But always indomitable to live with the true heart.
Thank you for your presence in this life Mr.Calvin🙏🙏
Calvin Russell THANK YOU
Ça c est de la musique❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
a very nice song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Even with his voice thick with death, all of these musicians believed he was trying to share a sober message; and helped him deliver.
Absolut TOP ...in jeder Hinsicht ....DANKE
Just chanced upon this performance tonight. What a band! What a loss. RIP.
I’ve listened to this again and again. Is there anyone out there that can tell me the names of the band members?
Love the comments...the French have always had a great appreciation for American musicians that America ignored or rejected...so sad he's gone..RIP Calvin..
He conocido su música cuando ya había fallecido. Ha dejado un legado increíble. Está dentro de mis músicos preferidos. Gracias
da quando l'ho scoperto circa 7 anni fa, ho scaricato tutti i suoi dischi!!! Non mi stanco di ascoltarlo, per i suoi testi, la sua voce, il suo modo di suonare la chitarra!!! Purtroppo non ha avuto la fortuna che meritava!!! Un grandissimo!!! Grazie Patrick Mathè per averlo scoperto!!!
Just can't stop listening to this song !!!!! I'm obsessed !!!!! I get withdrawal when I stop !!!!
Calvin Russel é e sempre será puro feeling do blues e do rock,sua guitarra ,sua voz, sua mensagem mantém acessa a vida e esperança de muitos,para assim seguir em frente. Calvin Forever Forever Calvin. From south of Brasil,Big embracing.
I have discovered his Music recently.... sorry I did not earlier.... what a great guy !!❤
Juste magnifique j'adore ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Não me canso de ouvi essa linda música e interpretação desse grande cara e artista. RIP Calvin
C'est juste magnifique cet artiste , sa musique est d'une telle beauté et d'une telle profondeur 😔 ! RIP Calvin Russel🎸❤
I remember Calvin because I have been present at one of his live concerts in Oberwangen, Canton Thurgau in Switzerland about 10 or more years ago, where I bought from him the CD SAM which he signed personally for me and my wife. To my opinion he was a very kind, sympatic and decent person which I have never met again. Moreover I remember his extraordinary deep full voice and of course his simple guitar play during the whole evening which I will never forget.
Max Egger, Thank you for sharing your memories, wish I could have seen him during those times. Yeah, that voice haunting, that look says it all. His face a road map of his life. Peace.
I to didn't find him and his music till a couple weeks ago great voice great music rest in peace I've been jamming to your songs every day since I heard you the first time.
This is a beautiful song. I am sorry he is not with us. But I am happy that he is with o.ur savior.
Thank you Calvin. Wherever you are out there, a part of you will always be right here inside me. Peace Brother
Merci Mr Russel , vous étiez un gentleman du blues .Respect.
Un chef d'oeuvre, une oeuvre d'art.. Ni plus ni moins
Just found this amazing man never knew him when he was here what an amazing musician xxx
God bless you Calvin.

❤👍❤ RIP Calvin, Greetings from Berlin.
Vu dans le Jura, puis à Douai, dans les années 90. Un bonheur de gentillesse et de simplicité. On quittait le concert meilleur... Merci Calvin, God bless you !
Divin CALVIN...quelle présence sur scène et quelle voix!
Et Eric Sauviat est énorme sur son solo guitare !
Saw and heard this great poet twice in Grenoble , unforgettable...I miss you Calvin.
This just ripped my heart out.So timely. RIP. Maybe tomorrow.
I heard about Calvin Russell many times as I was visiting Austin, Texas. Never saw him play live though! Just last week discovered his live work on You Tube...... watching and listening every day since... Thanks Oliver for putting this on Yoy Tube.....love it!
Calvin, an incredibly unique character, highlighted by the great music. Calvin, yo:ve drawn into many hearts - respect
juste transporté dans un autre monde avec cette musique et ce compositeur hors normes . un GRAND MERCI a toi MR RUSSELL
Michaud boy life
Just watched it again, and, as always, the magic is still present. I'll insist, guys, if you haven't watched this song, with this version, give it some of your time. It's about standing up and being a good man, about dignity, about life... And it's effin beautiful.
it's very beautiful, good for the soul... ...❤ une pure merveille assurément !!!
Oliver H, I come back to this song 3-4 times a month, great song, great performance, great artist. Doesn't get much better. Wish I could have been there. Calvin was one of a kind. This song is as powerful as any ever written. God bless.
Oliver H. Je sais que tu es français .

CUANDO ESCUCHO ESTE TEMA NO PUEDO EVITAR SE ME CAIGA UNA LAGRIMA POR CALVIN RUSSELL, POR SIEMPRE MAESTRO, EL CIELO SE EQUIVOCO CUANDO TE LLAMO, GRACIAS POR TU MUSICA
Cierto. Pero debe de tener muy felices a todos en el cielo y por supuesto también el gran Peter Green el mejor guitarrista que tuvo John Mayall (mi opinion). Saludos Nestor.
Qué bonito ....lo sientes..... es para vivirlo...siiiiiiiii PRECIOSO .. te hace llorar.. te sientes como un niño..con un corazón .que matarías por todos.... cosa que no todos valen
Yo lloro... y disfruto.. porque nadie en vida me da lo mismo
@@davidsierras4629 GRACIAS POR LO ESCRITO, TAN BIEN EXPLICADO, UN ABRAZO MUY GRANDE.... CALVIN LO VALE TODO
Son lágrimas de alegría sentimiento .. un señor. Qué valora
Y otro que canta.. no te confundas..... si no valoras la musica es ruido...... g
La simplicité de cette musique nous transporte dans une ballade et en fermant les yeux on voyage dans les étoiles 🌟 magnifique belle musique 🎶 merci
I'm so Glad i could see him in Concert in Nancy (France) about 20 years ago ... Txs to him i play guitar and learned what Music means.
Nancy jazz pulsation, j'y étais aussi...inoubliable 🤩
Les commentaires expriment le musicos qu'était ce grand homme . Je ne peux qu'ajouter celui ci, merveilleusement extraordinaire .Que de souvenirs magnifiques tu me laisse Calvin ,ces concerts que tu étais le seul à savoir faire ,ce cœur dans ta musique ,cet amour de la musique , le blues te sera à jamais reconnaissant ,comme moi ,comme nous tous ici .Merci de ce partage Oliver H .De ma Belgique je vous salue ,vous tous les Russel lovers .
Excelente música y letra, siento mucho que ya no esté en este plano, y siento mucho que con mis 60 años, veo como se destruye la música, la verdadera música.muchas gracias a RUclips, está gran enciclopedia por darnos la oportunidad de conocer, recordar y escuchar la buena música.
I'm just a person
I don't claim no country
I just don't need a flag
To say who I am
Well, I come from my momma
Like you and your brother
This world is ours
It's all in our hands
I'm just a Soldier
Fighting the sorrow
Holding my head up high
I won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today- If not today
Then maybe tomorrow
I'm only a human
So i'll make my excuses
But there's one thing I know
One thing I can see
It might be to late
To change where we're goin'
But in your own mind
You can always be free
I'm just a Soldier
Fighting the sorrow
Holding my head up high
I won't beg steal or borrow
Oh and if not today
If not today - If not today
Then maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow
love this song and the fantastic les paul guitar solo
So sorry to have missed Calvin when he was still with us. Cannot get Soldier out of my mind. Haunting.
Thank you so very much Oliver H for sharing this treasure.
So geil.... So Schade das er keine Musik mehr für uns machen kann..... Love Him
Er war einer der underrated Südstaaten Musiker . Einfach nur geile Mukke.
Such a talent! And a man of rare vision and integrity. Died (too soon) leaving a great legacy in our hearts and minds.
Pourquoi je ne peux pas écouter sans pleurer ? Époustouflant !!
So lovely ! I've seen him in France, in Agen (Florida) about 20 years ago ... With his bottle of Jack Daniel's ! A great concert ... And in this song, a great great guitar solo ! I love it !
C'est juste magnifique et quel solo de guitare 😍😍😍😎❤️💕😎❤️💕😎❤️
Brilliant. I always get shivers.
Découvert avec son premier album, suivi toute sa carrière, vu une seule fois sur scène au Splendid de Lille.....un grand artiste, honnête, simple, entier et talentueux....Merci pour tout Mr Russell
Simply FANTASTIC!
i love you Mr. Calvin Russell !!
J ai eu la chance de le voir à Besançon que du bonheur très grand respect pour un mec extra tu seras toujours parmi nous

The absolutely best song I've ever heard on the "Tube" - Thank you.
I saw many of his concerts in Paris, when he was touring for his first, second and third album. Met him a couple of times. He signed all my CDs with some nice words for me. A great, great musician and very humble person. His music has accompanied me since. Listening to soldier very often when driving to work. He passed away too soon. His music will live forever in our hearts. Eddy
awesome
Why is it I keep finding great music and they die. WTF. I gotta stop searching I guess.
À ana je suis à bientôt à des vacances à Noël aet a mon anniversaire je pense très très fort bisous bisous bonne année bisous à atztttzttzzzrztzz être z
