Im 72 and opened for them when i was 20.
Really ? Thats so dope , was it while Alan and the bear was still alive ?
How did we go from geniuses like this to the music today.
Great question?
👍🇨🇦
Capitalism
Another good question is, how many people today can recall Canned Heat?
processed foods and bad dope,,,,,,,,,,
My Daughters 17 year old boyfriend was riding in the truck with us and asked if he could Bluetooth a song? I said yes and this is the song he put on. That boy checked another box on why I liked him. 😂
marriage material
Boy had done his homework and knew what strings to pull to achieve his goals :)
just one try for the journey man !!!
Oldest trick in the book. 😂
@@SonyT250lmao yep😅
I was finishing my NAM Tour of Duty in that Dirty War when Woodstock played,When i look back i was crazy to volunteer and i have never trusted politico's since but at least i survived.
❤
That was just after I got out of nam we wanted to go but we could not gather the money to go
@@RhmiltHadey We were lucky to get out, 58K were NOT now a foolish old man in Russia has begun a War in Eastern Europe where the Heroic Ukrainians have lost the same number of dead in 800 Days!!!!
@@geoffhunter7704 yes I know brother
Too bad joe let Russia in.
I came back from vietnam with out a scratch i heard that song I was home I was very lucky
Thank goodness and thank you for coming home!
Being lucky is part of being good
Thank you!
Shit, I missed it; I was in Vietnam at the time. I wouldn't have wanted to go to Woodstock (crowds and mud), but would have allowed someone else to drag me there-and I'd have loved it.
I wasn't either..too young. But the movie, ie documentary was very real and offered close up experience without the mud, starvation and all those kids sliding around nakey! 😃
As a first wave Boomer, I must say that we were privileged to have consistently great music growing up with lots of different genres to influence our tastes. This is the first time I have seen this cut from Woodstock. Another band--similar to Canned Heat--that was cutting it up in the Chicago area was the Siegal-Schwall Band with the great Corky Siegal playing harmonica and keyboards.
Good gravy. Catch up 🎼🎵🎶🎸
I was 10, in Alabama. When I finally found out there had been a huge concert up in New York, I was SO sad that I'd missed it. I miss the 60's & 70's. Everything was new & exciting. Bands were experimenting & innovating new sounds in music that had never been done before. There were protests & rallies. We all thought it would go on like this forever. Then came 1980...& Reagan.
I'm understand, in Argentina the Woodstock era ended early because the dictatorship of march, 24, 1976. Repression, state terrorism and prohibition of everything. =-(
20 January 1981 and the Shipshewana gained steam
Blind Owl, with a music degree no less, thought blues was the 'purest' music. A real anti-rock star.
His mates should've taken better care of him. : /
@@SelectCircle I agree. But could they, given his, autism? Done anything to help?
@@johnthomaso4208 Well - self-centered party-lifers - one's typical sort of band mates - indeed can't help anybody. But in general - suicidal people can be helped in lots of ways.
When music was music 🎶 not like the shit today 😅❤
😂😅😝🤣
When music was music, is so overused.
@@KittyGrizGriz It's often said that what made the painters of Renaissance great was the number of supporting patrons.
Zappa said band promoters and record companies were mostly cigar-smoking Joe's at that time - compared to today's corporate cronies who won't even touch great talent that can't sell out a stadium!
...not to mention all the great musical potential talent going to waste by young men hooked on video games!
Yeah until i die
Wow what an original thought, you truly are a free thinking individual
No group has ever boogied like Canned Heat. Still gets you rocking after all these years.
Yes it does. When I was younger I wondered whether I would still like it when I was old! I still do at 72. ...82?
...except George Thorogood. Better? No. Worse, no. Same ballgame, different innings, different field! But they both hit home runs! Alan Wilson "Blind Owl", what a performer.
Carson at Sunbury Australia is pretty good ..check it out
Every song sounds the same
@@ganndeber1621 "Don't fear the retard..."
One of the greatest bands of the rock era. They combined blues and rock into their own unique “boogie” sound.
Good things happened when Blues, Rock and Physchelic music was combinded...they were master. Looooong jams...I love it long time'
@@barne3668before heroin and death. ☠️
@@catdaddy3302😢
Are their other copy artists playing this band’s music ?
'Nam-era combat vet here: Be honest, bud: CH was, by-and-large, forgettable. Did a couple good songs, as like Uriah Heep did, Judas Priest, and Iron Butterfly, and that was all, Right?
Another great band of that era sadly overlooked is 10 Years After .
Hear hear!
The soundtrack for The Woodstock movie has all those great songs, Santana also!
The epitome of rock and roll
Grand funk
Alvin Lee; I’ll call this one…Helecopter
And then launches into a blistering blues routine
The Heat blew some minds at Woodstock. This is a world class performance people. Like so far off-the-freakin' planet good.
Marvellous stuff. Saw Canned Heat here in Madrid about 25 years ago.
Wasn't bored for a second.
Canned heat a badass blues band with guys like Alan Blind Owl Wilson and Bob the Bear Hite lived and breathed the blues made the band the killer band it was.
Of all the fab music of this era Canned Heat top them all. How time passes so quickly when you reach my age. The best times was back then. I'm 71 and still they get to my soul.
I love these guys too. I'm only coming up 65, and this was too early for me at the time.
So many great bands back then, and music I am only now finding.
Love it.
I'm "only" 56,love them for a long time,they sounded different then other white blues bands
Me too. ❤️
I'm 65 and I know exactly what you mean ! Time has passed so quickly, I am still stuck in the 60's and 70's.
I'm also 71,damn I miss those great times!❤
The Blind Owl is the master of sophisticated simplicity wrapped in a unique guitar tone. His singing is second to none. It doesn't get any better. Great band.
Ted Gioia wrote one hell of a book called "Delta Blues" Every page is good. But his description of Canned Heat and Al Wilson's collaboration with John Lee Hooker is just great. Wilson was no ordinary musician.
Absolutely !
His harmonica.......not here......is the best ever.
@@dontworrydon 👌👌👌
@@dontworrydon ...as the great John Lee Hooker said : "Alan was the Best Harp Player I ever met "
"Blind Owl" in his corduroy pants looks like he just walked out of high school science class - What a great band - One of the best of all time. I still have an old cassette tape I still play in my car.
😅
Yes! You 've got it!
The first time I heard Canned Heat, they gave me goosebumps! I was young and now old..74. They still give me goosebumps and I can still Boogie. Awesome Band.
Apparently they'll be releasing their final album this year.
I’m 64 and I had the same reaction. First they confused me. Then I got into the history of blues. Then I loved them, but too late. I’m so we have these live recordings. So many great artists of the ‘60’s left us way too soon. Idk.
Wake up"Rock and Roll Hall of Fame"Canned Heat deserved to be inducted!!!!!
hall of fame go away. some of us are real musicians and real rock fans. stick to mtv!
RAR HOF is a joke@@frereanaktom99
Fuck the moneymakers of R&R HOF! See Steve Miller‘s reaction on his own introduction…
It’s like the Boy Scouts of America. They have both lost their ways. I think rock musicians should get together and just set up a whole new rocking Hall of Fame.
If that were to happen, where do you think would be a good location in the United States?
@@rattyguitarsSet it up in Austin Texas.
I'm a baby boomer, Woodstock era guy who loves classic (AKA "real" rock & roll/blues) and looking back on the video makes me realize how young these guys were. Wow! Such great talent at such a young age. It seems that most of the greats from back then, only happened back then. There was no computer, digitized, programmed, looped, aids with this type of music. The good old days!
Greatest Festival ever !
Great Band!
On the road again!
Blues can never die!
Greetings from Hamburg Germany, Andreas 65 years young
Glastonbury has nothing on Woodstock! This festival started the whole thing off! Real hippies there! The best musicians!
I have loved this song for such a long time and now I can see the guys singing! Love it!!!!
Fell in love with canned heat during the start of covid when i was 16 so not that long ago at all. Took me on a trip. Wilson’s guitar playing struck me as so traditional yet soaked in his own psychedelic craft. RIP
Welcome aboard 👍
Rock on bro 😊
❤
ahhh there's hope for the youth of America ! rock on little brother !
I love it when youngers find and appreciate the great music from the 60s 70s. Blues/ rock'n'roll/ psychedelic rock music. Early pink flyod were great too. Very different to canned heat. If you get chance have a listen to the pink flyods Early stuff with Syd Barrett. And Rory Gallagher. If you like blues, check out Rory Gallagher. A great Irish man who made blues and rock music. Jimi hendrix was once asked " what's it like being the greatest guitar player in the world?" Jimi replied to the question by saying " I don't know, you'll have to ask Rory Gallagher 😉
I AM 71 .This sends shivers up my spine reminds me of my youth nothing like a little nostalgia !!! those heady weed days ... and the best era for music ever 68 to 75 ....
❤❤
SO TRUE. You are blessed. This Era will never die.NEVER. 🤜🏼🤛🏼🤟🏼
Me too, 71 and great old music❤
@@user-qd9yz4mm6tYou 'made it.'
I am 71 as well and I really liked the song and I play around with my harmonica which helps with my asthma I also am a BABAY BOOMER and love to go to the dance club here now and than Portland, Oregon
Thank you fellow Boomers, what memories we have, what music we gave and whoa the roads we've traveled.
👍❤️
Best years of my life. No music will ever be as special as it was between 1968 and 1976.
There is a place in the space time continuum where it is forever 1969 🎸🎸🎵🎵
Yesss!
🎸 🌝 👍
So True!!
Absolutely.
Canned heat is the definition of the boogie, YOU can't help but to tap your feet
I'm groovin' and reading the comments and as you comment ,I found myself within a heavy foot tapping 😎
Oh Lord, will anything as great as this ever happen again?
No😢
Probably Not
Anything is possible.but thIs was about the music and brotherhood and protest an freedom and 🌸LOVE🏵️. unfortunately today young people are messed up in the head man I mean seriously disturbed an many with out the ability to show this kinda of greatness an understanding of the world around them plus today's music is rap an hip hop about violence an hating women an hating not loving like this far out generation was .maybe after the MILLIANIALS start dying off an gen z is old maybe then but until then NO THIS COULD NEVER EVER HAPPEN AGAIN.The young people today don't know if they're a boy or a girl an are to offended to even sit beside someone that thinks different than they do.but maybe one day in tbe very far future if JESUS HASNT CAME BACK TO GATHER HIS FLOWER CHILDREN.JESUS IS ALRIGHT WITH ME HOW BOUT YOU?
@@mattjennings6812 Jesus is just alright with me.
I doubt it. Attitudes have changed and most of the bands are gone. It has been tried again a few times with no success. It was a once in a lifetime thing the chances of another "Woodstock" are pretty much 0.
One of my favorite songs!
I had an eight track on the floor of my old fifty seven ford! Attached to nothing!!! When i took a left Canned Heat went right!!!! Ah the good ole days!!!!
This band should be in the Hall without a doubt they played at every major festival as far as I know nobodty elese did
Nobody cares about the RRHOF...
Screw the Hall of RS's pet favorites. HoF is such a contrived hot pile of crap, rivaling the Oscars.
This vid is an American treasure and should be in the Smithstonian.
It's all about the music Man!......let's get back on the road again 🎸🎶
This band was so underrated; they were so fabulous.❤😊
Did you hear them when you watched this video? They have MILLIONS of die-hard fans all over the world. That's under-rated to YOU?
Alan Wilson was a once in a lifetime combination of such unique abilities that I feel blessed having him in my musical foot locker.
I was a kid of eleven years old in 1969 & I remember Woodstock years ago.... what a great time it was ☮️🙏🌎
Such a talented musician and a message about the lonely kid who, had a very difficult life 😭
This comment needs to be stopped. I’m so sick
of it show I up everywhere.👎🙄
I was only 11 years old when this took place. My older brother was there. Only his memory tells me how great it was .
Excuse me for my poor english.
Greetings from Switzerland, Europe, " the old world".
I' m a swiss citizen, born in Switzerland. Swiss father and german mother.
Canned Heat fan since 1968, when my elder brother brought the " On the road again" single home....
I miss Alan Wilson' s voice....
Hey tommy….their music is still global!! Nice to hear from you!!
Can you help stop the WEF. Tell them to leave U.S. alone!
Same here! 👍
Greetings from Florida, USA. I would love to visit your beautiful country some day.
Youre english is fine.
My dad loved them. He's gone now. I love them now
I listened to Canned Heat in the 70's when I was a teenager, now 50 years later, I still do from time to time and they are still one of the best. Both Alan and Bob had such a charisma on stage ! Absolutely fantastic!
J'ai le même âge que toi et je suis en train de l' écouter ,
So smooth and the coolness of this band I was born in 57 my older brothers constantly playing canned heat it was ingrained in my soul when I was a little boy in Huntington beach hippies all around surf shops incense burning everywhere the golden bear where they performed those where great days in my life (groovy)
For younger viewers; don't forget when you see these Woodstock clips that these bands didn't come on and play a greatest hit, they played whole sets, most of which is not out there.
Yes
It's go time
As a 17 year old, i don't totally understand the tech used back then, but wouldn't it have been easier to film/tape (not quite sure which one was used) the entire sets, and if they were, where did the rest get lost?
@@humanehumanbeeing3418 It was film. Remember, it was three day event, and the movie was pushing commercial considerations at 3 hours long. Apparently, they ran out of film on the first day and had to get more sent in. That would have had to be by helicopter as the roads were clogged up for miles around. AFAIK there is a lot more around, but copyright issues, artist permission for release etc have complicated things. Google is your friend.
@@humanehumanbeeing3418Into the dustbin of time or hiding under a bale of hey somewhere in a rotting old barn somewhere in God knows where . Cameras where very expensive usually cumbersome film/tape hard to come by expensive hard to develop edit etc etc vulnerable to degradation and only certain people had the necessary skills to git er done and archive properly before time took its toll . I hope that helps . ✌🏼
I've been a Canned Heat fan since I was 12 years old. I'm 67 now and my musical taste has widened greatly in that time but I still return to Canned Heat every now and then. Their legacy is magnificent and their effect on me is still the same electric thrill I experienced as a young lad. Beautiful, soul lifting blues rock. The best of the genre!
Me too...and the same age. Really enjoy their sound...wonder if you're a Hot Tuna fan as well...
@@barbh5565 l was more John Mayall and early Fleetwood Mac. And, of course, the one and only Elmore James. Hope you keep enjoying good music for a long time to come
Same here. I’ve many different tastes now but still return to Canned Heat now and again.
You beat me to that reply. Actually heard Canned Heat and Hot Tuna in jr. high down in Gitmo while my father was stationed down there. @@barbh5565
76 here
There are only a few bands I liked during the transition from the 60s to the 70s, Canned Heat is one of them. There's so much musicality in their performance of this simple song. It's such a pleasure to listen to.
r.i.p to the members of this band who have passed on, and thanks.
Blind Owl, beautiful, unique voice, gone too soon ❤️
A long time ago my mother bought me some records and she liked the picture on the Canned Heat album thank you Mom
That cool. My mom bought me Who’s Next because she liked the cover art. Also, Toys in the Attic for the same visual reason.
I' m a swiss Canned Heat fan. Saw the band live in 1974 in Lausanne, Switzerland, Vaud county. After the concert, I had handshakes with all the members of the band. And autographs too....
wild
Lead singer on their two chart hits, Al, was dead by then.
Blind owl was one of the greatest 🎸 talents the world has ever seen 😢 R.I.P. Wilson
I played a gig opening for Canned Heat in Egliswil, Switzerland in '95. Fito AND Henry Vestine! They gave us their beer from the green room and we stood behind them watching them sign all kinds of albums. They sounded fabulous.
Egliswil ? I work near it. how come Canned Heat played in such a little cutsie random town. I hope you have ton of Pictures from back then, would love to see them. Liebi grüess
@@SamuraiPandaable It was an Easy Rider bike festival. We were the house band at the Boothill Saloon in Daytona Beach and some guys from the MC club saw us and asked us to play. Lots of fun!
Wow! Lucky
did you ever see bear sauls from the bear facts blues band of eric quincy tate @@markroffe3967
Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson was truly underrated as a singer and guitarist; just never found an audience.
one of coolest voices from the psychedelic era
Agreed! Such a shame he passed so early RIP
That much I will allow him. He was a pretty bad rip-off artist regarding old records by black musicians, but he could sing like a MF and his guitar playing wasn't bad either. Paved the road for the other great rip-off artists, Page and Plant.
@@simonagree4070 ...what?
Just say no to drugs, kids!@@kombarris
The race cards a crutch burn it.!!🙄@@simonagree4070
I was there working Event Staff. Had just finished a 16 hour day and was just falling asleep when Canned Heat got on stage. As tired as I was, no sleeping through that HARP.....
I was there!
On the Road again...every Day..........What a great Band ....What a great Song
Canned Heat started off an incredible night of music. I remembered it all.
Alan Wilson was a charismatic blues singer with his falsetto voice. It’s too sad that he died early. I’m hooked on his songs.
Saw Woodstock in the Cinema loved every act that came on. Special times that will never be repeated.
I was there, and this was one of my favorite acts of the festival. A highlight of Canned Heat's set was a terrific drum solo by Fito de la Parra. At one point he dropped the drumsticks and beat the drums with his fists. Minds were blown.
Took my 4 year old daughter to see them at a friend's club in town Ohio, she never forgot getting to meet them. Wonderful people.
I can understand why the initial film abbreviated a lot but these extended clips are AWESOME!
La disparition d'Alan, une plaie qui ne cicatrisera jamais, le prodige du blues avec un avenir incalculable, nous sommes depuis de tristes orphelins,
I love when solos sound like they're just about ready to fall apart, but are absolutely ferocious.
where it’s at 🚬😎
They go into Beast Mode !!
That’s right; very LIGHt and LOw

Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled

Not even no place to go
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
And my dear mother left me

On my wicked son."

Down the road I'm going
But I ain't going down
That long, old, lonesome road
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else
Every member of the band had so much talent. Alan Wilson's life was cut way too short. Would've loved to see what music he could have come up with later in life.
Exactly, same for Hendrix, Joplin, Morrison.
@@DutchmanAmsterdamnot Morrison mate… so overated
@@neilrobinson1724 I don't agree.
Just like Ron "Pigpen" McKernan, Blind Owl could have taken the blues to some very interesting places had he lived longer. His contributions to "Livin' The Blues" marked some uncharted territory in the genre.
@@neilrobinson1724Morrison “Overrated”, huh? Haha
Personally, so much love to that generation, who did cop, so much flack, from everyone.
A baby baby boomer, saying, THANK YOU.
👍 ❤

@carolinegodden
And who had sacrificed more than you realize for everyone.
THANK YOU -
And thanks for pulling up the ladder behind you and making life shit for the generations after you. The "fuck you I got mine" generation.
I am new to listening to Canned Heat, and totally fixated by Alan Wilson, I think he was a tortured genius
No doctor but I’ve got non neurotypical kids and have a bit of it myself. I think Alan was on the spectrum. He was so shy and as a young man wasn’t able to find easy romantic companionship which of course drives one’s anxieties even harder. But he was a true student of the blues and had his own particular genius. These days he’d probably be more accepted or understood, back then people like that were just weirdo outcasts who “couldn’t act normal.”
@@Mat_Gomez23 what are you even talking about? Autism doesn’t cripple your fingers. Trust me, it’s not a barrier to music and often music can be a language that comes more naturally than social interaction.
Welcome to the best time in the existence of the blues, boogie and R&R!! Like us older kids (73) that lived in these times ask your grandparents about the time and the music. There's a lot more you have't hear yet!!
They were the best! Nothing will ever beat these guys. Truly amazing!
On acid
Alan definitely had a unique way of playing guitar. RIP 🙏🙏🙏
Oh the memories 😊
I am an old man now. But this group encouraged me to hit the road and now I have 25,000 miles on my thumb. From hitchhiking all over this country . Thank you !
I made it from NH. To Miami in 24 hours by thumb !
@@scottmcintosh2988 Best I did was from Boise Idaho to Tampa Florida in 2 and a half days .Close to 3000 miles.
You'r still hitchhiking, aren't you? Where?
@@apiii7368 now, but, as a gal I figured it out in early 70's that guys were free as birds. I had to travel w. safety in mind, but, I did what I wanted too. Settled down to have some kids we raised them and in '95 I resumed my meanderings.
@@terywetherlow7970
Yea, you are right. I
The road was for guys only. I personally saw a girl get throw our of a van full of guys, when they were done with her on the interstate. And they beat her up too.
That said. I did hike thru Houston when there was two serial killers picking up guys on the road. I was a pretty boy back then too. But my buddy was seriously rough and ugly looking.
I did have a few guns pulled on me.
Blind Owl Wilson was amasing on that guitar. he is a nember of the club 27. RIP you guyes and do some jamming up there!
Blind Owl's rippin' this one. gives the Grateful Dead a run for it .Heavier than any Dead jam.
When music was music and a group of kids a band!!
If anyone was ever acid rock they were. Long live Canned Heat
Having a Woodstock revival kind of a night. Loving Canned Heat. Such a good band. Nothing more to say 😂
I was there blew me away I was 15 I may be old but I saw some great bands
Me too,I saw Woodstock at the Cinema with my 12 year old friend about 4 times ,it really opened my ears& eyes to all the music, I'm SO grateful for that!!!,🧨🧨🧨🧨
76 ans et toujours accro à cette rangaine ! Signé Riton
Sadly I was at the last gig the bear did. The palomino in Los Angeles. The band were booked for 2 shows that night. Caught the last song of the first set. But the bear didn't come out for the second one. The crowd booed. But the band played on. Got the sad news the next morning. After taking the bear to hospital that night, he passed away. 😢
Oh I never knew that thanks for telling that
Oh yeah, your so right, sadly Bob felt so confident about himself that he didn't see the danger belonging to the viol, which was offered to him.. Such a great frontman, passed away too early, like Alan did. He'd sung about Amphetamine Annie, the first song about drug abuse.. and did die just that way, what a fate. Now Fito keeps the band alive. Their are doing a great job.
Aww, that’s so sad 😞. You were lucky to see them though, I was born too late unfortunately.
Never never never arrived to a hospital... The drummer sent Bob to his house inside the equipment van... With the "roadies" still they gave Bob a joint as he asked for it, never recived any attention.
But the bear passed way in 1981 after 1969.is correct?from Brasil, sorry my english is weak.
Alan Wilson and Harvey Mandel Great guitar chemical reaction . Bob's mouth harp is pretty good too . Canned Heat ,
Great blues band .
I adore the blind owl. He seemed so sweet. Never had a chance to meet him.
Great band!! 🎸
I played their albums all the time when I was a teenager back in the late 60’s.
I wanted to be at Woodstock so bad!!
I saw Canned Heat in Brisbane Australia back in the late 70’s (I think?). They were performing at the Brisbane City Hall circular entertainment room. My mate and I blew a big fat joint in the Kombi before floating through the door. We were blasted! The show was simply excellent! Wow! Great stuff!!
You can't help falling in love with their great anthem " Let's work together"and will always be travelin " on the road again, " going up in the country" absolutely love Canned Heat.
@patrick - ruclips.net/video/b8NJ-MIfFHI/видео.html
Go to the 3 min mark to miss the preamble. God bless you Blind Owl! You are greatly missed.
I was in elementary school on long Island then!
I'm 71 too. I saw Woodstock on the night of my last day at high school. Such great music. It's carried me through many years of happiness and strife. It's a great road to be on ... again
Also 71 and I was 17 when I went to Woodstock, much to my parents' dismay. If it weren't for the fact that, as a senior, I still had the upcoming year to go or I would have been grounded for a month.
Dammit. I was born that year. But missed it all. Had to catch it up because of my hippie uncle who died. But I'm in it now, including other groups I found my uncle listen to at his time... Understand bob Hite in 1980. Accidental suicide by smoke strong grass. But because some people forced to promote pop and disco. So he felt lost. But these music nerds did the right things. Missing it from the 70'ties I remember.
@@umpire3112We made our own choices 👍
At the 15th anniversary I remember my girlfriend’s friend mocking and squawking at Woodstock. She also mocked classical opera. Her nasal whining was sickening.
Then I watched the 25th anniversary on tv and now I realize the 50th anniversary has gone by, but now we can watch anytime online.
What a beautiful influence-America at its best.
FCKNG amazing performance & sound..
Woodstock was beautiful all the legends are gone now😥😥
We the Audience remain....
On Long Island, US high schoolers all bought harmonicas after Woodstock. LOL 🎙🎶🎸🎹🥁🪇🪈📻
I just found out Bob Hite got that top note on his standard blues harp by filing down the ends of the blow key. Such a cool band with an ice cold groove.
Alan Wilson right?
Edit: Just watched the video. Could’ve sworn it was always Blind Owl on the harp on this song.
It was Blind Owl who originally played the harp on the recording and was the one who filed the reed. Since he also sang the song and played slide too, the Bear likely played harp live often instead of Owl.
pas écouté depuis une trentaine,merci à ce retour de manivelle
Nothing but ❤❤❤
Lo mejor, de lo mejor, de Woodstock....sin duda... ,!!
@2:15 “GET THE F’CK DOWN!!” Haha love it 🎉 😂
Kids today can't even handle Jungle gym.
@@terywetherlow7970 Well, my grandkids have been taught by their parents to be physically & mentally strong, don’t know about “all” the others you’re taking about.
Just WOW.
I still own a shitload of canned heat original LP albums.. I dug them listening to the kid I remember listening to the guitar and saying man I wish I could play like that. 🪶
1969/1970 the year we got🎉 married. Colleagues at work bought us the triple album of the whole event. Still have the albums and not still married but really good friends. We have one beautiful daughter who also loves great music.
Wilson's voice!
Taught to sing by Skip James -learned to play guitar + harp by real- old blues men as a kid
Very strange voice.
I LOVE
Hells Angels brought them out to Broadford in Australia.
Bearing organised that two years running. My girl at that time loved Canned Heat so I took her up to backstage, got hold of Bearing and she met them. She couldn't believe it but I was a club president and got on really well with Bearing so she was allowed.
That was an unforgettable week end.
