I hear T-Bone Walker in just about every old blues player, from Hendrix to Billy Gibbons to BB King, Chuck Berry. I guess everybody that started player guitar before 1980 you hear a little T-Bone Walker in all of them. Man, thats a hell of a legacy........
Repression did not matter, the birds sang their songs! Too bad most of them fell asleep again! Peace to all of them, and sorry on us for missing their blues!
Awesome ! BRAVO ! FANTASTIC ! Thanks for taking yo time to post this GEM of a short film.... God Bless Albert Collins a true TeXas musical magician and guitar hero... a capoed telecaster never sounded better.............
I grew up in East Texas and like Albert said we had no harmonica players at that time which was late fifties. In the early sixties I moved to Houston and played behind Jmmy Reed and he was the first harp player I gigged with. The Texas sound was guitars, horns and a piano thrown in. But Houston had Albert, Johnny Copeland, Tex Hughes, Clarence Holliman, Gatemouth, Gaines, Johnny Brown..at any given time they all hung out there.
Great vid!! -@Oliver: I saw Albert live round about 1991. He sounded 10 times better than on any of his records. And yes, he sounded like a different Albert, a better one ofcourse.
Evan Waller Guy had finger tips made of porcelain. And a lot of it had to do with his tuning. Guy plated in some bizarre minor chord. I think it was F-sharp. Tight tuning, and a capo on the 8th fret, you could cut carrots with the high e;)
@lastkmbazoh It is indeed Gillespie. But I don't think it's T Bone Walker's band. This is a recording which can be found under the search 't bone walker woman you must be crazy', where Norman Granz introduces T Bone as '...the singer with JTP'. I think this may stand for Jazz at The Philharmonic, suggesting a special band was put together for the occasion, hence the inclusion of Dizzie Gillespie perhaps.
So is there the whiole thing out on DVD somewhere in the internet or does some one has this on video or what? Would like to see the whole documentary for sure!
Two Great Admiring The greatest. Long Live Texas Blues
T Bone Walker so smooth, i am with Jimmy my hero's are all blues men.

I am a huge fan of Jimmie Vaughan and his brother ( R.I.P.) SRV. Jimmie just has it in his soul - The music,the cars,style....just too cool.
Priceless!! It's nice to see T-Bone get the respect. he deserves.
Special to see Albert Play like that. Havent heard that style on any of his records...yet

My idol was Wayne Bennett with Bobby Bland and they recorded in Houston often and Wayne had that T-Bone influence with those 9th chords.
LOVED IT Thank you Baby,💋👀🖤😊

Great video! Thanks for sharing...

I think Albert could kill a man, with just his fingers!

That was way cool, but - WHY DOES IT HAVE TO END RIGHT WHEN THEY START JAMMING... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
This was amazing. Where is this from? What documentary?
Anyone know the name of the song T bone is playing or where to find it?
I've been searching YT and google for some time now and haven't had any luck.
😉👊
damn this guy would make a great match with albert king... holy fuckingggggggggggg shit... its like hearing jimi hendrix.
what tv show or movie is that?
T-Bone live at the Philharmonic
good grief.
Tabs for the Collin’s part anyone ??
The Bone was bad!
Why would you not record the whole jam at the end and cut it out?? what fools of producers
