Saturday Matinee – Rosemary Clooney, Eric Clapton & Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi & Jimmie Vaughan with Double Trouble, Otis Rush, Memphis Slim

Saturday, 12 November 2011

Rosemary Clooney‘s “Blues in the Night.” A Hooey Da Hoo-ee.

Classic Clapton jam from 2007, featuring Derek Trucks. Nice version, even with Clapton’s guitar feed dropping out midway through.

Derek Trucks is married to Susan Tedeschi, and here she is backed by Jimmie Vaughan and Double Trouble.

Double Trouble took it’s name from this Otis Rush song.

Let’s wrap it up with some awesome boogie woogie with Memphis Slim from 1975. Have a great weekend, folks, and we’ll see you tomorrow for more fun.

Saturday Matinee – World’s Strongest Redneck, Derek, Bob, Gatemouth & Johnny, and Buddy Guy

Redneck washing machine. When Steve McGranahan‘s not bending cast iron skillits for charity, this funny guy makes videos.

“Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad?” was one of Derek & The Dominos’ greatest hits.

One of my favorite Wailers songs.

Here’s a 44 year old Clarence Gatemouth Brown with a 32 yearold Johnny Jones playing  “Chicken Fat” in 1968. [via]

Happy 74th Birthday to Buddy Guy, one of the last original bluesplayers.  Here’s a guy who left the south for Chicago and played for sandwiches to keep from starving.

Have a great weekend, folks. See y’all back here tomorrow.
