still sounds great! God bless him. I remember meeting him back in the late 70s in Austin, where he'll be performing soon.

[@darkglobe111]

Avant~Garde and groundbreaking artist. A staple at the legendary UFO Club in 67-68. Played alongside Syd Barrett & The Floyd, Soft Machine and many others.

[@FredBrighton]

We saw him in Phoenix many decades ago... most fabulous show I ever saw! the man was an amazing quick change artist!

[@valerieannshort7109]

So glad to hear that! He's got the most amazing voice.

[@beverlywhite4255]

I saw him in Phoenix too, he was lowered in from the ceiling at the coliseum with his headrest on fire! What a trip!!!

[@LordStompyHarpLoonyTunes]

I'm a damn good singer and I'm 44 years old and this guy's kicking my ass at nearly 70. Far out

[@laumur302]

That's a generous thing to say...I don't hear many generous remarks these days. I'll bet you will become a remarkable artist. Keep practicing.

[@manoftheworld1000]

Arthur opening for Hawkwind? Hawkwind should open for Arthur!

[@jimyelektric1126]

HAWKWIND you mention that's funny I knew Lemmy and WenDY O Williams because I was a friend of Pete Steele when they were carnivore I'm from New York and I was roady and I talked with Lenny like half an hour at the Rock Hotel Ritz I'm older now and Wendy always there and that's funny yeah you bring up 😎 cool when Lenny's the most famous person I talk the most with in my whole life multitudes of times everyone used to say are you bothering him and he would tell them shut up leave the kid alone he's not bothering me I would talk about Concepts and my band ideas and he would listen... carnivore opened up as the first band for Motorhead for a while Venom I was on those tours... my friend was Lou Beto carnivores drummer that's how I got to know Type O Negative and Carnivore... I even knew Pete Steel when they were a band called Fallout before carnivore when I was like 11 in 1980 . Josh silver went to Life of Agony then they formed carnivore later.peace🌈💖🤛

[@don56texas]

it looks like Arthur is carrying the mantle handed to him by Dave Sutch who received it, originally from Screamin' Jay Hawkins

[@jong0000]

comparing either one of them to Lord Sutch is hugely insulting to Jay and Arthur... Sutch had a decent stage act for awhile and he also had Carlo Little and Nicky Hopkins, but he was an awful singer...

[@russellfoster2400]

Keyboards have the Vincent Crane vibe

[@fotomusikus]

What is the name of the keyboarder ? He looks (and play) like a younger keith emerson.

[@secretsforseptember]

fotomusikus It does say in the info on the video. but its Steve Watts.

[@fotomusikus]

Secrets For September I´m stupid... now I notice that I can klick on for more info. Thanks for fast answering. Your band makes good sound, good music. "Letting go" I like it especially..

[@Quelqueshue]

Steve Watts, If its the self same musician, was Demons' sublime keyboardist..

[@LANATORDI57]

..........

[@PhantomMarquis]

The god of hellfire casts spells too! 🤪

[@TheChange1961]

If mr. Brown could only get clean, pure and prudent, his band actually should be Emerson Lake & Palmer...

[@Bellfire05]

I know people shrink but Arthur Brown is 6'7 this guy doesn't look 6'1

[@stevengabbard930]

Screamin Jay Hawkins? Who's that? Arthur Brown took a novelty song and turned it into something real. The studio version is still the best version. He packs a lot of emotion into the lyrics. Some of it is ugly and dark but it comes across as raw and real. A brilliant remaining. Hawkins version doesn't come close.

[@kaddlehopper710]

At least you awknowledge Hawkins did it first...I know this is awkward but the organ seems to be very distorted and should be played straight!

[@Chapol99]

Agreed, the organ (?) seems to be into its own song, doesn't seem to be complimenting Brown.

[@stevengabbard930]

Oh screw you. I've used to have a copy of the original. I threw it away because it was worthless. Hawkins never captured the emotional possibilities of the lyrics. He just screamed in that silly voodoo doctor persona of his. He never rose above being a novelty act and I'm surprised he is even remembered. His career is really sad because he was actually vocally talented. No, it was Arthur Brown and John Fogerty and others that brought this song to prominence. Most people have never heard the original version and for good reason. It's just too silly.

[@snoolee7950]

Steven Gabbard You seem to have trouble accepting an artist on the merit they have. The same lambasting could be said about AB, a man with one hit that he had to perform over... and over... and over... For some reason, John Fogerty makes me think of a musical cave man. He is pretty base. It is caveman music, caveman rock. Joe Walsh and Peter Frampton, now there are some guys with panache.

[@stevengabbard930]

??????Whatever, man. It's unclear what point your trying to make. If you like Screamin, Hawkins, go for it, Hoss. Nobody said otherwise. I didn't appreciate being called an idiot. The only thing I was saying was Arthur Brown's version was a more mature piece of work (I refer to the studio work on The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown, not this video) and I stand by that.

[@TheChange1961]

If mr. Brown could only get clean, pure and prudent, his band actually should be Emerson Lake & Palmer...

[@bobgreen623]

Why in heck would they want to do that? ;)

[@TamirB.98]

Well actually the original drummer was Carl Palmer, so you could say that in a way they supported ELP

[@valerieannshort7109]

Then he might as well be Emerson, Lake & Palmer...but he's not...he's Arthur Brown.

[@Bellfire05]

He was one of the ones not using LOL
