"El crappo" vs the "real" blues. It doesn't get better than this.

I happen to be a blues lover myself. I listen to mostly Chicago blues but this video stopped me dead in my tracks for the whole length of it. Pure music, pure soul, pure craftsmanship coming from both the heart and the gut. This is why good music played with emotion and creativity will never be surpassed by the best arranger players, DJ's, KJ's etc.

This video should be the benchmark by which all performers are measured against no matter what genre. They are today what Joe Cocker was back in the 70s.

Great music. Thanks for posting it, Chas.
