I knew Hubert and Wolf from my childhood, onward until they left this Earth. No one in my life, was as good to me as Wolf, and my adopted Uncle Hubert were in my life. They had hearts that were tender. Wolf knew my mother, my Gram, and my aunties. Wolf bought me my first harps, And put them in my hands. My family tree was broken. Wolf and Hubert became my substitute family. Wolf would sit beside me. And he told me of his childhood days in White Station. I heard the emotion, in his voice.When he told me of being whipped, and abused, by his step-father. I saw his teardrops fall, as he told me of his life. From his heart,. Directly to my heart. Wolf was the most courageous man that I ever knew. People would talk about him. Always. They would say this and that. Let me say this,. They didn't know that man. They didn't know the goodness of that man. The hard roads that he traveled. The adversity, that he faced. Time and Time again. These things forged his spirit. Made him so strong. But also so loving, so compassionate a man. And so very very understanding of people. When Wolf got sick, it messed me up bad. I had to steal away. And cry, and cry, and cry some more. I couldn't play guitar. Or Harp and sing. After he passed. I got drunk drinking orange label Old-Grandad 100 proof Bourbon. I was in Cambridge Mass,one night. I heard someone call my name. And when I looked up.David Maxwell, and Hubert were standing there in front of me in the street .Hubert said, Hey man, please don't do this to yourself I'm begging you please man. This is not the way to do.!!! He was crying.David Maxwell was crying too. Anything good that I am in my life, is because of those guys. Taking a disabled boy under their wings. To keep the cold rain off of me. I am an old man now. And I miss Wolf, and my beloved Uncle Hubert. And my wonderful brother from another mother. David Maxwell so much more.Than my words can ever say... Thank You. Rest in peace eternally....!!!
This is the most beautiful comment I have ever read. I can tell they had a truly profound effect on you. They must have loved you very, very much. Keep on going my friend.
Wolf was abused by his Uncle not Step Father his mother threw him out at a young boy because he didn't want to work the farm anymore so he left and lived with his uncle he ran away from him and found his real father and lived with him
I saw Hubert a few years before he passed. He was an old blues guitarist headlining a local club in my town. He stayed in the motel I owned. The club owner and other people revered him and talked of him as someone very special. I didn’t know anything about him. When I met him, he was quite old and on oxygen ( there was a guy travelled with the band just to take care of him) but he was a well dressed very polite gentleman, spry and full of life and always letting go a cackling heartfelt laugh. I was filled with admiration of him as a person. I attended his show in the small venue that it was and watched old Hubert play the entire show sitting on a chair and giving it everything he had ( I thought) because he was such a professional. I thought I was impressed, but that turned out to be nothing. When it came to the encore of the show, at the end of it, he stood up straight and tall, shed 30 years off his age and bent some notes and played some licks that brought the house down. What a moment. At the end all 150 people followed him out the side door of the club cheering. It was magic. I sat by him at breakfast the next morning while he told the guys stories about Wolfie and life on the road and cornbread. He made a point of bidding me goodbye later and thanking me for his stay as if I was someone special for having done what I had done. He said “I’ll see you again” and I’m looking forward to that.
Breaks my heart now he's gone. Wolf, Reed, Taylor, Waters, all gone where I'm going. When I was a young man they were younger than I am now. Youth, grab life by the throat.
Oh, man. I know that feeling when you lay hands on a guitar and get the "must have" feeling rush over you. They better have gave him that guitar. His contributions to the blues and music in general are totally invaluable.
"I'm like a kid when it comes to guitars" "If I can have this guitar Imma be a man again". I'm with ya, brother! Nothing gets me giddy like a pretty guitar.
I still get shivers when I hear guys like Hubert, Howlin Wolf and Buddy Guy play the blues. There's none better. Although some of these great artists are gone, the blues will live forever.
Great video. Also great to see Wendell and Dennis, the proprietors of Cambridge Music, when it was a tiny shop on the 2nd floor, on Mass Ave Cambridge Ma. Those were the days. RIP HS
Thanks for that!! It's so long ago now it seems like a dream! Just found a picture of us setting up for this film shooting, so I came here to see this.
Never heard him on the acoustic before. It's good Hubert got the recognition he deserved, especially from the musicians he inspired. He was truly one of the greats.
+Buelligan88 There's a recording from Paris 1975 where he plays the acoustic on a few tunes. It's called Groove and also reissued with different titles.
@@MrTeatreeoilexactly he should have been rich.... with generational wealth. White people stole and put thier names on everything.... all the rock and roll bands who stole thier music and did not pay. Last I heard howling wolf's family was sueing over thier dad's music being used without compensation....
Without Hubert, The Wolf would almost certainly have not got the recognition he deserved because he demanded the very best. Without The Wolf, Hubert would almost certainly have made it as a blues legend anyway. Great upload; this DVD is on it's way to my house as I type.
Would love to see the full documentary if anybody has it! Hubert had the spirit! You can tell that the man could barely contain his enthusiasm for music. Must have been an honor for those music store guys to sit in with him
that smile when he plays, that laughter he finishes every song.. thats what the blues is about man.. telling the world all the worst fxcked up shxt you went through and still: look and listen
This is fantastic this is married with the blues so much spirit and energy and a lot of love to play music like this way is amazing and we are blessed to may listen to this.
He was a delightful man who embodied the spirit of the blues..the part that is generous and kind and goes about things in a collaborative way. I met him on 3 occasions and walked away feeling better about humanity in general. If we can produce people like him, we as a species are doing something right..lol
great info whileH.'ubert reminisces.. another great man that many in the USA just take for granted.. Others jump for joy when they got to see Hubert and the many Legends that stayed only as long as they could. Love and peace to all Blues Friends of Hubert, he was a great down to earth genius on a guitar.. Clapton knew it well, and got him to come to Crossroads.. his song from '10 is here, from that last big fest around the 'big shy.' Never to be forgotten. Shared time with little people..
Towards the end of this clip Hubert is playing at Cambridge Music, which was a great store and a fixture for many years in the Boston area. That's Michael Mudcat Ward on bass of Sugar Ray and The Bluetones and if I'm not mistaken George Lewis on guitar.
Thanks so much for saying that! Those were some great years! It's not George on guitar though, but I've forgotten his name. As I recall, shortly after this he moved to San Francisco.
Hubert and Wolf wrote the Bible of the Blues Give that man anything he wants and be grateful you could give it to him,,,, Those that t have eyes will see,,,and those that have ears will hear,,,
Sumlin pops the strings with his fingers extended in a style that very much reminds me of Gatemouth.I think Jimmie Vaughn does a variation of the technique. It's such a great funky sound.
got to see Hubert with David Johansen, Levon Helm , and a bunch of other cats at a small one show in Nyack about 15 years ago..Howln' for Hubert!...and some shows at the Iridium....Another UNDERRATED GREAT! a TRUE LEGEND!
And that would be a clear example of class and appreciation but clearly he was in the presence of takers and not givers. But he gave them a nice free INTERVIEW and guitar lesson.
He was hinting for them to give him the guitar. They sell guitars..they aren't takers. If Hubert was broke in anyway..and these people were fans it wasn't their fault. They worked hard to build a guitar shop..hubert worked hard playing. Contributions to blues history doesn't = they owe him a free guitar. Drawing conclusions with knowing very little about what was going on back then is too easy
I *DID* own that guitar shop, and if you think I was gonna give away a $2000 guitar you've never owned a business before. We worked hard to be the kind of place Hubert would want to come to, and when he came by he got the royal treatment. That's why part of the documentary was filmed there.
@@MrSpacejase Thanks for that! We were an honest and fair place for musicians, and that's one of the reasons Hubert wanted to film there when they were doing this documentary.
2:46 That half step hammer on with the index finger (sorry don't know how to describe it musically) is 100% a way to trace blues right back to Mali.... sounds very much like taureg style guitar
Great piece of 16mm film and expensive with a Nagra soundman getting it on 1/4” tape. What a great scene. I first thought, there’s no coverage in close-up on their hands- but the fact that this was put on film in such a casual setting is pure gold. Great quality in a year that portable ENG/EFP Video would have been fuzzy and low rez image, state of the art. I shot both video and film professionally in a thousand situations. This is a blues historical precious moment.
Just went to the link for the DVD and spotted this. “Review: This is a re-edit of a 1985 film focused on Howling Wolfs lead guitarist. Don Kent and Sumner Burgwyn were roaming the south with a film camera looking for bluesmen, haunting clubs, concerts and filming people playing on porches.” Film? I’m ordering the DVD! Very cool.
He was in an episode of "Metal Evolution", which was filmed about a month before he died. I'm glad I got to hear what he thought of Howlin Wolf in that episode and how he contributed to my favorite music. RIP Hubert
@Talkin Bout Nawlins Hey! Dipweed. You said *" Rock didnt invent shit!"* and that's nonsense. The whole rock n' roll era involved new ideas, ways of playing and songwriting. A shitload of artists brought new sounds! It's not about who wrote what first. Reggae might have *STARTED* in Jamaica, but then an English band called The Police mixed it with other influences and made it something different. Jimi Hendrix was a huge Beatles and Bob Dylan fan, but he mixed his R&B background and huge English amplifiers to create a powerhouse rock trio. That's what music is about, invention and reinvention. Those rock dudes you criticize broke things wide open and made music that still stands the test. Don't be a dillwoggle.
@Talkin Bout Nawlins I don't recall Woody Guthrie coming up with "I Am The Walrus" or "Like A Rolling Stone". Sorry, but they didn't take "all their stuff" from earlier artists. They took stuff and added *NEW* stuff. They were innovators. This purity crap about who started what is a waste of time. Music has a long history of innovators, and there will be more to come, hopefully.
@Talkin Bout Nawlins More nonsense from the dillweed! I'll bet you lunch Dylan never said there are no innovators after Woody. He knows he was one of them. You're not getting the point, so it's not worth the effort anymore. Kids these days. ;-)
@Talkin Bout Nawlins Thanks for the easy questions! Here's the answer to all of them: if the older artist never lived, the newer artist would have had *different* influences! Also, you keep missing the point; it doesn't matter who the earlier artists were, because the point is innovators will innovate. That's what all of them did. And then people like you and me will hear their various influences, while appreciating the new angle they bring to it. Where do we meet for lunch? And thanks for finally understanding. I know you get it now. ;-)
Living the blues,Since you've been gone,I've been walking around with my head bowed down to my shoes,I've been living the blue Ev'ry night without you.I don't have to go far To know where you are,Strangers all give me the news.I've been living the blues Ev'ry night without you.I think that it's best,I soon get some rest And forget my pride.But i can't deny this feeling that I Carry for you deep down inside.If you see me this way,You'd come back and you'd stay,Oh,how could you refuse.I've living the blues Ev'ry night without you

This is the most beautiful comment I have ever read. I can tell they had a truly profound effect on you. They must have loved you very, very much. Keep on going my friend.
God bless you. I knew David and saw Hubert before he passed. They were the reason we had good music.
Hubert is my all time favorite guitar player, his finger style playing was so good.
Thank you for sharing this. Blues was born out of pain and struggle. May he rest in Eternal peace.
Wolf was abused by his Uncle not Step Father his mother threw him out at a young boy because he didn't want to work the farm anymore so he left and lived with his uncle he ran away from him and found his real father and lived with him

There's something about the simple joy and humbleness of Hubert's playing that just really strikes a chord with me. It's so touching.
Looking at that goofy grin Hubert gets when he's hittin' a lick just right is priceless! The joy in his spirit sure comes out in his playing.
Had these fine gentleman not been around there would be no Rolling Stones, Elvis , buddy holly etc. These guys are musics true pioneers.
Apparently, he was of one of the guitarist that had an influence on SRV
Who cares if there's no elvis when you have these guys. or chuck berry.
I dont like rolling stones and elvis.
I 2nd that emotion
I don't like you
i could watch footage of Hubert Sumlin all day
Breaks my heart now he's gone. Wolf, Reed, Taylor, Waters, all gone where I'm going. When I was a young man they were younger than I am now. Youth, grab life by the throat.
Oh, man. I know that feeling when you lay hands on a guitar and get the "must have" feeling rush over you. They better have gave him that guitar. His contributions to the blues and music in general are totally invaluable.
"I'm like a kid when it comes to guitars" "If I can have this guitar Imma be a man again". I'm with ya, brother! Nothing gets me giddy like a pretty guitar.
+Gibson Blues Better have, but I don't think they did.
I guess we've all been there before even someone as good as hubert sumlin
I still get shivers when I hear guys like Hubert, Howlin Wolf and Buddy Guy play the blues. There's none better. Although some of these great artists are gone, the blues will live forever.
"blues is gonna be here. Blues is here to stay" damn right
another blues legend has gone on home to glory......R.I.P Hubert Sumlin your style of playin will be missed! thank you for the music!
Great video. Also great to see Wendell and Dennis, the proprietors of Cambridge Music, when it was a tiny shop on the 2nd floor, on Mass Ave Cambridge Ma.
Those were the days. RIP HS
Thanks for that!! It's so long ago now it seems like a dream! Just found a picture of us setting up for this film shooting, so I came here to see this.
Hubert was such a cool guy.
Got to know him a little bit back in the 70's in Chicago.
Great guitar player.
The tone he gets with his fingers is unbelievable! It’s like he’s playing more than one instrument.
How the heck does Hubert always get his freakin tone even on an acoustic... One of the best guitarist and one of my favorites. He will be missed
one of tha best blues guitarist period
Never heard him on the acoustic before. It's good Hubert got the recognition he deserved, especially from the musicians he inspired. He was truly one of the greats.
+Buelligan88 There's a recording from Paris 1975 where he plays the acoustic on a few tunes. It's called Groove and also reissued with different titles.
Thank you, GtrWorkShp! Adding a couple approximate times. "Howlin' for My Darling": around 3:00, "Rock Me": around 3:45.
All them should've been "filthy ass Rich!!!"
@@MrTeatreeoilexactly he should have been rich.... with generational wealth.

The last jam is incredible
that smile when he plays, that laughter he finishes every song.. thats what the blues is about man.. telling the world all the worst fxcked up shxt you went through and still: look and listen
Cool how he shares his spirit and connection with an instrument so openly. A delight!
Hubert should just live forever got to love this guy..Rest in peace Master of Masters
This guy can make you feel the Blues !!!!
This is fantastic this is married with the blues so much spirit and energy and a lot of love to play music like this way is amazing and we are blessed to may listen to this.

R Dewar I had the privilege of meeting him twice. I know exactly what you mean.
Deepest respects for all of them.
Hubert Sumlin, one of the greatest Blues Guitarist ever who made Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters great!
God Bless you Hubert. Thanks for all the great licks. RIP.
great info whileH.'ubert reminisces.. another great man that many in the USA just take for granted.. Others jump for joy when they got to see Hubert and the many Legends that stayed only as long as they could.

Ilove you HUBERT, thank you you for your teaching me how to play those great Wolf Sumlin Songs.Wish i could have met you
Priceless.
I've just found my most favourite blues guitarist...hahahah..awesome
That gave my something to live for...love that statement
RIP Mr Sumlin. You are inspirational. God bless you.
Hubert once came to Southampton in the Uk he played a venue called the Brook , I was lucky enough to meet him , he was a charming good man.
Hubert, thank you for giving. RIP brother.
pure joy and happiness while playing. RIP
Great Loss to the Blues; my condolences to his Family, Friends and Fans
This was my Great Uncle...
My Mom always talked about him...=)
Man he got a nice touch ,,,master that's for sure wonderful
Loved this mans playing so much 6 years ago I named my son after him!
Thank you for this share the love ❤️
Hey, it's Wendell and Dennis at Cambridge Music way back when I started going there in the early 80's!

Thanks for pointing that out I was wondering what that was I'm new 🆕 to guitar 🎸 and I'm always looking for new techniques
got to see Hubert with David Johansen, Levon Helm , and a bunch of other cats at a small one show in Nyack about 15 years ago..Howln' for Hubert!...and some shows at the Iridium....Another UNDERRATED GREAT! a TRUE LEGEND!
The sounds he puts out! Is the sound I am looking for.
Priceless
Just finished the Wolf biography...followin' it up with this is really special. Thanks for posting this.
Priceless footage~
Hubert is the greatest.
Love it!.. thanks so much for posting this👌👌👌🎼
Amazing player with a unique style
If i had owned that guitar shop i woulda put that guitar in a case and handed it to him. In a heartbeat
And that would be a clear example of class and appreciation but clearly he was in the presence of takers and not givers. But he gave them a nice free INTERVIEW and guitar lesson.
And was trying to help them sell a guitar. Stand up guy, Mr. Sumlin.
He was hinting for them to give him the guitar. They sell guitars..they aren't takers. If Hubert was broke in anyway..and these people were fans it wasn't their fault.

RIP HS. Thank You.
2:46 That half step hammer on with the index finger (sorry don't know how to describe it musically) is 100% a way to trace blues right back to Mali.... sounds very much like taureg style guitar
Great piece of 16mm film and expensive with a Nagra soundman getting it on 1/4” tape. What a great scene. I first thought, there’s no coverage in close-up on their hands- but the fact that this was put on film in such a casual setting is pure gold. Great quality in a year that portable ENG/EFP Video would have been fuzzy and low rez image, state of the art. I shot both video and film professionally in a thousand situations. This is a blues historical precious moment.

Great hubert stuff as akways and god save the blues
Awwwouuuuuuu😎
Hubert was BadASS !!!!
Amazing video. wow.
Nice to hear Hubert playin acoustic
It was Hubert and Robbie Krieger who got me started on guitar.
RIP Hubert!
Moaning At Midnight is the best! I could listen to it everyday for years . . . like a few other tunes, I guess I have.
That howlin moanin for my darlin is so good on that acoustic
Wonderfull!!
Excellent!
He was in an episode of "Metal Evolution", which was filmed about a month before he died. I'm glad I got to hear what he thought of Howlin Wolf in that episode and how he contributed to my favorite music. RIP Hubert

Man I would love to see a candid backstage conversation between Hubert and Wolf… just to see them interact would be such a gem.
Right on brother! Hubert and Wolf... Too living legends! Their 'sations must've been about the BLUES brotha!!
Great Stories Thank you ♥️🎸🖤💙
Love you Hubert
Pure magic
Thats how the blues is suppose to be played....SWEET!!!! :) made me feel to pick up my guitar. VERY inspirational :-)))
superstar extraordinaire.

The main man,he is missed!!!
Nice music store !!!
Why thank you! We tried.
We played a Festible !!

So many to chose from, so many, but for me then: Tail Dragger - electrifying !!
RIP Hubert.
howlin for my darlin holy shit I forgot how much I loved to play it
'no sugar' as BB said - straight up blues :)
"It´s true what they say you know, they got one hell of a band.."
I hope they gave you that guitar Mr. Sumlin, just for you to be there should have made them give that guitar. R.I.P. you were a good man!!
We had a business to run! Would have loved to do that but had too many bills to pay!
I've never heard Jimmy Page say much about some of these old blues guys but all you gotta do is listen to Hubert's solo on Hidden Charms. It's obvious Jimmy was listening to this guy.
Talkin Bout Nawlins dumbass Americans. Hmm. Interesting to call Americans dumbasses when talking about the blues.
Exactly, Talkin Bout Nawlins
RIP, another great artist gone.
