Back in 2017 I had the pleasure of seeing GCJ in GrandRapids. That day my mother was diagnosed with leukemia. She made me still go to the show. I had made a comment about my situation and expressed catfish blues was always a favorite song of my mother. Gary came out on stage said a few words directed to me about my mom and opened his show with a like 10 minute rendition of catfish blues. I was brought to tears.
My heart goes out to you Mom & Family. Many Blessings 🙏 What GCJ did for you was a Healing with his Amazing Talent! Tears always lets pain out of your very Soul. Sending my energy out to you, for more Healing with The Blues. GKJ is Beautiful
I was at this gig. He was one of many support acts supporting The Rolling Stones. If I remember he was the first act of the day, it was fucking hot and most people only really cared about the Stones, for me however, this was the stand-out performance of the day.
Keepin them alive and giving them a good good boost. it will be huge again. after all modern western (western part of the EARTH) is born and bred from the blues. Period. without blues there be no Rock and roll.with out blues there be no ,hold up,no hip hop.....dont forget the "b" in rnb....its blues.... yessir E BOB. BLUES IS THE SHEE OTT.
Oh my God, Gary Clark Jr.oh you are some bad. I'm a 64 years young fannnnnn!!! You are amazing . I know great music when I hear it and your vocals are simply beautiful.Keep playing and stay healthy!!!!!!
It has been a perfect playing for me having a lovely and awesome Fan like you, thanks for your love, I have you mostly to be thankful for 🎼🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🌹🌹🌹
@@garyclarkjr.9018 I know your mom is so proud and I'm so proud as if you are my son too. Seeing you in Mississippi, still doesn't seem real...Peace, Blessings and Blues.❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
garyclarkjr. Haha I collected another year on you. I'm still checking in for my late night bedtime song. Love you keep playing and singing your heart and I'm going to be watching. Love,Blessings and Blues
Wow! Gary Clark plays with incredible intensity, and with bends "out of this world". Reminds me a little of Jimi, but Gary Clark sure has his own voice.
Notice how the video starts out with Clark and the bass player and drummer (the rhythm guitarist shows up much later in this video). A lot like Hendrix's band with Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell. All in all a great performance!
I first saw him during Clapton's Crossroads guitar fest, I stopped in my tracks and said "wow. Who is this guy?" He was the best part of the fest. A genuine blues man.
Exactly my reaction when hearing him from my living room. if it was the 2010 or any of the crossroads festivals that he's been a part of you are a lucky person
See, I don't really see Hendrix in him. He doesn't seem to be going for that funk and vodoo mystique, nor the primacy of the guitar solo and shredding. I'm not sure who to compare him to though. He has a lot of fusion in his work.
Just can’t get enough of this track, blows my mind, drummer be bossing life too ...................if I had a movie, I would enter the opening scene to this 🎸
Hell yeah that drummer was like Mitchell's little brother. Lol. This performance and the one at The Surf Lodge Hen My Train Pulls In transports me back in time. man...
It has been a perfect playing for me having a lovely and awesome Fan like you, thanks for your love, I have you mostly to be thankful for 🎼🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🌹🌹🌹
I'm apologize but I've never heard of this gentleman and I absolutely love the blues, and the electric guitar. Definitely Jimi Hendrix would be as impressed as I am. I will be watching him from now on. Just amazing
It's really great that this guy is doing with the Hendrix legacy the precise opposite of what Monte Monthomery is doing. Monte takes it into a technical stratosphere where nobody can follow him. Gary takes it all back to,the Delta roots by capturing the raw emotion. Real blues has humor, dignity, stoicism and anger, all balancing each other out. And this guy has it ALL! Albert Collins would have loved this.
I heard this random on Pandora.Man I had to see it too here.I'm completely blown away.This guy pulls a sound out of his guitar like no other! Love it!!
Just saw the Rolling Stones "IN" London. but Gary Clark Jr. is the best I've ever seen live. This man right here puts on the best show. Sounds identical to the master live every time. And his solos will blow your mind!!
Joseph Walton my guess, they’re all Dan Auerbach or Black Keys ONLY fans. I’ll bet on it. The voices sound alike. They obviously have similar influences. Just my 2 cents
Goosebumps DAMN!!! How did I not discover this badass until today???? Thank the Gods for my local college radio station ( KUPS 90.1fm THE SOUND. Tacoma,WA. )
I found Gary on a Black Keys radio station on Pandora back when The Black Keys came out with The “Brothers” album. I immediately loved Gary Clark Jr. over the Black Keys. Guy is the real thing
Mi gran reconocimiento p este gran guitarrista,es lo mejor q le pudo haber pasado al mundo del rock y del blues tengo 60 y me hizo recordar a Jimmy H pero recargado,enhorabuena a los q lo han escuchado,viva el blues!
I have no reason to explain why I have tears running down my cheeks... Maybe it's I love seeing or listen to people talk or perform their passion. Just makes me happy I guess idk either way I'm digging it 😂
I stumbled across Gary Clark Jr last night - half asleep with a YT playlist. Love what he's doing live or studio, and this performance is awesome by any standard! I can't, for the life of me, comprehend 34 negatives. 34 peeps with no taste!
Well I wish I was a catfish Swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea I would have all you good lookin women, Fishin after me, fishin after me, fishin after me yeah Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry Well, I'm Ragged and I'm dirty too If I clean up now, tomorrow Can I come home with you Come home with you, yeah Come home with you Well, I love Well, I love my baby Yeah, she's gone, scream and shout When my train comes rollin' in And I come walkin' out Come walkin' out Come walkin' out Well, I love But I'm leavin' you baby Yeah, your crying won't make me stay Well, the more you cry, lil' Momma Further I'll go away Further I'll go away Further I'll go away And I know, well I know you don't want me But I wanted you darlin' You told me so When you ain't got a word well, I'll be there Hangin' round' no more Hangin' round' no more Hangin' round' no more Hangin' round' no more Hangin' round' no more Hangin' round' no more
It really is true you are never too old to learn new things. how have I never heard of this man, the only reason I clicked on it was because I've been seeing lots of his videos and catfish Blues the name piqued my interest
Exceptional #GaryClarkJr. Your skill with that guitar is almost indescribable. How does great sound? Yeah, that sounds right. GREAT!!! 😄👍🎺🥁🎹🪘🎸💛💚💝💖💙💜❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This guy is the best thing to happen to the world of music for a long time.
Definitely
So you've listened to every new band or new song releases since 2014?
This guy is killing me. Never heard him. Totally Awsome😼
@@lisafoskey8804 Have you listened to him playing Pearl Cadillac, amazing track.
@@phildale8451 No I have not. But I will😉

He ain't no joke. laying down some heavy sounds with such a cool style. Stones aight, but this guy got it
Where was this??
Bless the Stones' little hearts, I'da walked out after Gary, like, why bother?
Pollack87 Hyde Park?
I bet that was a Bad Ass show! Guaranteed they knew who Gary was after that lashing !
Gary keeping the mother fuckin blues ALIVE. Rock on 🤘🤘🤘🤘
guitar 2199 amen brotha!!!!!!! That dude was screaming on that guitar!!!
Keepin them alive and giving them a good good boost.
it will be huge again.
after all modern western (western part of the EARTH) is born and bred from the blues. Period. without blues there be no Rock and roll.with out blues there be no ,hold up,no hip hop.....dont forget the "b" in rnb....its blues....
yessir E BOB. BLUES IS THE SHEE OTT.
guitar 2199 yes good music is not dead.
Word. 1oo%
Shame the Blues is NOT Rock
Oh my God, Gary Clark Jr.oh you are some bad. I'm a 64 years young fannnnnn!!! You are amazing . I know great music when I hear it and your vocals are simply beautiful.Keep playing and stay healthy!!!!!!

I really like that dirty muffled sound he has, awesome player.
I'm a firm believer in that people who find that sound are really looking for it and deserve the honor-title of musician
@@Veazeysbanjoit’s a fuzz pedal my boy
Him and Joe Bonamassa, present generation of finest Blues!!! I suspect Muddy Waters is smiling that the genre is still alive and well represented!
Jimi Hendrix Version is awesome too
My goodness. His music just keeps growing on me. What a talent. He can play the hell out of that guitar.
Mark Dacre I know what you mean
Ditto me
Dude could be big on that voice alone. Mix the murder he commits on that axe and it's above the call of duty.

I wasn't too crazy about this guy before today, but I've had this on repeat all afternoon. This guy is a blues wizard, no doubt.
In the great and grand tradition of blues legends, I believe Mr. Clark Jr. will be listened to for many eons to come!
Simply excellent!!!
I absolutely agree!
Confirmo este comentario en pleno 2023!

The thrill is not gone... ;-)
That's remind me my BB king !
@@raulsantanahernandez8612 Right :-)
it feels like nobody dared to play like this since so long !!! it feels really good !
Continuity is the key, it has to be played with feelings,
I wish I could like this twice.
I first saw him during Clapton's Crossroads guitar fest, I stopped in my tracks and said "wow. Who is this guy?" He was the best part of the fest. A genuine blues man.

Clapton said Gary Clark Jr makes him want to play the guitar again.
Damn, bro!
Best Catfish Blues I’ve ever heard!
Muddy would be proud...
Lighting Hopkins ?????????????????? I just can't tell!
So much Hendrix, i mean those bends, dude's got it down.
I like it!
See, I don't really see Hendrix in him. He doesn't seem to be going for that funk and vodoo mystique, nor the primacy of the guitar solo and shredding.
I'm not sure who to compare him to though. He has a lot of fusion in his work.
The Gary Clark Jr. Experience ! Thanks God !
HE IS A TRUE BLUES MAN!YEA!!
Gary Clark Jr. is truly excellent. Exactly what we need in this musical wasteland.
The only bad thing about this performance is that it ended...🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥
Just can’t get enough of this track, blows my mind, drummer be bossing life too ...................if I had a movie, I would enter the opening scene to this 🎸
Hell yeah that drummer was like Mitchell's little brother. Lol. This performance and the one at The Surf Lodge Hen My Train Pulls In transports me back in time. man...
Thank you for picking up a guitar when you were a kid and learning how to hypnotize us
Tormented soul
That’s what I hear
It’s coming through the guitar
Ah yes - the honesty is refreshing
omg....the soul in his music just makes me tear up❤
It has been a perfect playing for me having a lovely and awesome Fan like you, thanks for your love, I have you mostly to be thankful for 🎼🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🌹🌹🌹
Saw him at Claptons Crossroads Concert. Pure talent! Been big fan ever since!
I bet Jimi, Muddy & all the rest are jamming in heaven to you, Gary. Keep it up, bro!!
Cool Bob Dylan on drums and Joe Bonamassa on bass and Will Smith guitar and vocals!!
To be honest i think Gary Clark Jr. looks more like Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out and Black Panther)
And AL Capone on rhythm guitar.
Hey man ,Lenny Kravitz on drums😂🤣🥰🥰❤️
Isn't Jeff Lynne from E.L.O. on drums?
Definitely Lou Reed on drums.....
I'm apologize but I've never heard of this gentleman and I absolutely love the blues, and the electric guitar. Definitely Jimi Hendrix would be as impressed as I am. I will be watching him from now on. Just amazing
These Good old boys, down in North Carolina, love you Gary Clark
Hot damn, why did I not look into this guy sooner. Powerful stuff.
It's really great that this guy is doing with the Hendrix legacy the precise opposite of what Monte Monthomery is doing. Monte takes it into a technical stratosphere where nobody can follow him. Gary takes it all back to,the Delta roots by capturing the raw emotion. Real blues has humor, dignity, stoicism and anger, all balancing each other out. And this guy has it ALL! Albert Collins would have loved this.
I'd just like to give kudos to the rest of the band just serving the song. It takes true musicians to get over their egos and help create actual music
Gary Clark has officially gone from "really good" to..."great." A very deep performance.
..."I went up a different person came down somebody else..." Actually it's not him at all... lol
What a beautiful guitar that is.
epiphone casino :)
It's no upside down Strat but seems to work for our man Gary here ;)
I heard this random on Pandora.Man I had to see it too here.I'm completely blown away.This guy pulls a sound out of his guitar like no other! Love it!!
Same here man the second the song ended I came to youtube to find it lol
Just saw the Rolling Stones "IN" London. but Gary Clark Jr. is the best I've ever seen live. This man right here puts on the best show. Sounds identical to the master live every time. And his solos will blow your mind!!
Hypnotic ... Jimmy spirit is floating there... such an amazing guitar sounds... a marvellous discovery ...
This man rocks....I Love it. Volume Up and the living room is my stage....
I am such a weak to them blues. OMG! The real life of music!
I love Gary Clark Jr, How I know God has blessed his sweet soul. Oh Yeah!
Who the hell thumbs down this. They need their heads read
Joseph Walton my guess, they’re all Dan Auerbach or Black Keys ONLY fans. I’ll bet on it. The voices sound alike. They obviously have similar influences. Just my 2 cents
Hell U know he's making it if fools are A' hating..lol
Still won't change the fact that This Man Plays the Blues better than the Devil in a Wet Dream!
Goosebumps DAMN!!!
How did I not discover this badass until today???? Thank the Gods for my local college radio station
( KUPS 90.1fm THE SOUND. Tacoma,WA. )
Oh mate, that is fucking great. Absolutely love it.
Yeah! Play those blues Gary!
This guy is just freakin' awesome - I only recently heard of him and I am in awe! Got to see him live!
Baked and grooving this band. Gary rips it well!
This man is a beast on the guitar. Love it when he makes it scream and sing and talk
There's Some Great Catfish Blues 💙
Epiphone Casino! Gary drop the SG. That Fuzzz is hitin.
I'm addicted, can't get enough of this guy
Great job covering Muddy Water's original. It's one of those songs whose cover is better than the original.
This song is as old as the blues itself.
I'm happy someone's trying to keep blues live ❤️
Excellent sound ! Those drums.....
One of my favorite videos on here. Great sounds and vibes
My 3 favorite things: Beer, Cheeseburgers, Nibbling on boys while Gary Clark Jr. blasting in the background.
+Jasmine H Ive got the beer and burgers and Im a boy!
Damn,lil mama.....You're a Goddess....
Damn,lil mama.....You're a Goddess....
No, she's a high school teacher.
I'm down...
I found Gary on a Black Keys radio station on Pandora back when The Black Keys came out with The “Brothers” album. I immediately loved Gary Clark Jr. over the Black Keys. Guy is the real thing
I came across Mr Clark's music from a you tube mix. Thankyou you tube. And most of all Thankyou Mr Clark. Love me some catfish blues.
Love this dude's groove. Look at the way he swings to the tune. Big mood right there.
Mi gran reconocimiento p este gran guitarrista,es lo mejor q le pudo haber pasado al mundo del rock y del blues tengo 60 y me hizo recordar a Jimmy H pero recargado,enhorabuena a los q lo han escuchado,viva el blues!
This young man is amazing!!!! Wow.
seen him live in a couple months ago and yes this is top notch, I'm a huge fan.
Dude bends three half steps like it's no man's business. Fucking sick. So much old blues influence and sensibility in this artist.
You killed that show in Nashville Tennessee brotha! Best shit I’ve seen in a long time, you got the juice!
...mmm Yes ..This young man has it.......Going-on....Yes.....Old Guy in Oregon,,9/2018....Nice
I have no reason to explain why I have tears running down my cheeks... Maybe it's I love seeing or listen to people talk or perform their passion. Just makes me happy I guess idk either way I'm digging it 😂
Well, i wish...i was a catfish...swimming, in the deep blue sea
This dude is one of the best blues guitarists alive...
Jonathan Holleb yep
Haven’t heard anything that made my jaw drop for a long time. GCjr did.
Love his guitar playing, my god he's talented!
I go through alot of warfare during my alone time.
God's allowed me to keep my music and this dudes totally helped.
Thank you Mr Clark.
Hang in there Jason only the Strong survive you made it this far 💪👍💪👍💪👍💪💪👍👍👍👍
This was in support of the Rolling Stones at Hyde Park in 2013. I was there. Fantastic gig. Extremely hot day.
Man going to see him next Friday in Fillmore... I'm excited 🤘👅🤘👅
Gary Clark is the real deal. A pure and uncut artist.
Keep coming back
Blown away every time
I stumbled across Gary Clark Jr last night - half asleep with a YT playlist. Love what he's doing live or studio, and this performance is awesome by any standard! I can't, for the life of me, comprehend 34 negatives. 34 peeps with no taste!
The people in this audience have no clue about the greatness on stage. GCJ and King Zapata....
3:30 - 3:57 amazing
Well I wish
I was a catfish
Swimmin in a oh, deep, blue sea
I would have all you good lookin women,
Fishin after me, fishin after me, fishin after me yeah
Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry
Well, I'm Ragged and I'm dirty too
If I clean up now, tomorrow
Can I come home with you
Come home with you, yeah
Come home with you
Well, I love
Well, I love my baby
Yeah, she's gone, scream and shout
When my train comes rollin' in
And I come walkin' out
Come walkin' out
Come walkin' out
Well, I love
But I'm leavin' you baby
Yeah, your crying won't make me stay
Well, the more you cry, lil' Momma
Further I'll go away
Further I'll go away
Further I'll go away
And I know, well I know you don't want me
But I wanted you darlin'
You told me so
When you ain't got a word well, I'll be there
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Hangin' round' no more
Thank U....🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶
As a drummer and someone who is in love with playing the drums, Gary makes me want to pick up the guitar and drop everything else lol. What a talent
This never gets old...Play it Gary Clark jr....nothing but pure gold. My sleep song ❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gary Clark JR. Forever!! This cat is sick with it! Love it brother!
he truly made this song his own with this performance. i went into trance listening to it for a few hours. such a genius.
Great musicians and incredible live performances
love GCjr playing semi hollow body guitars
I love it. Gary Clark Jr. and John Mayer are the new Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughn!
Clark being Hendrix and Mayer being Vaughn of course!
BeardedButtCrack your sadly mistaken. Up your standards buddy
Muddy Waters... covered by Jimi. And a thousand other players. Gary is one of them. Love his guitar tone.
I know a gorgeous woman who will never be able to hear this song and not think of me. Can't wait for GCjr to hit Ohio this summer
👍👍👌👌
Great music,I don't know how i've missed Gary, but i'm on it now.Him and Eric Gales.Is it too early to say, young Hendrixs'.
It really is true you are never too old to learn new things. how have I never heard of this man, the only reason I clicked on it was because I've been seeing lots of his videos and catfish Blues the name piqued my interest
Muddy water would be so proud, do your thing Man
Exceptional #GaryClarkJr. Your skill with that guitar is almost indescribable. How does great sound? Yeah, that sounds right. GREAT!!! 😄👍🎺🥁🎹🪘🎸💛💚💝💖💙💜❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
