Big Legged Woman - Chris Duarte on Legends TV program

[@RayAllen1776]

I’m 54 years old and have seen over 250 of the greatest artists of all time at some of the greatest venues, this is one of the best performances I’ve ever seen. ❤️✝️

[@GaryCainMusic]

Lots of players out there getting a ton of attention that don't have a tenth the talent. This guy is among the all-time greats.

[@nswilswilson5666]

Yup! 100%

[@alanlatimer1024]

Chris Duarte is a true blue guitar hero who can play anything and anyone's style as well as his own which is what all the greats do they do a cover that's better than the original like Stevie Ray Vaughan did as well as Mr Gary Moore when he covered Red House at the fender tribute show no one wanted to follow him

[@INUAGAIN]

an all-time great? you know little and haven't heard much music...

[@GaryCainMusic]

@@INUAGAIN back to your mom's basement you go 😅

[@MrMannyvillegas]

​@@INUAGAINhater!

[@cuninglinguist]

This guy is not just a stellar musician , he's also a genuinely nice person .A year or so ago he played a weeknight in SF Ca. Aftter the show he was around to hawk his new CD and talk up the fans .I told him about my little radio show in Sonoma Ca .It's unpaid situation , but I have a lot of fun with it .I knew he had a day off between SF and Santa Rosa which was the night of my show . Asked if he wanted talk on air .He drove in the rain and spent over an hour to tell stories .Just a great guy .

[@INUAGAIN]

you wouldn't know a stellar musician, you just tryin to advertise for him. He is not stellar and everything I hear is a cover song... ho hum warren Haynes will bury this dude, he's stellar and so is Govt Mule and the Allman Bros where he played for 20 years. You all missin somethin in Cali...

[@salesrafael]

Seeing Chris playing/soloing makes the perfect example of an instrument being an extension of the human body.

[@terrypoe7274]

Been following Chris since about 1994. Blew me away then, still blows me away. Jazz, blues infusion! Hendrix + 1990's + Duarte.

[@INUAGAIN]

can he write a song or just cover everyone else's stuff?

[@oliviamckeever9644]

I am such a big legged woman.......this song was written 'bout someone like me!!! Duarte, as usual, tears it up!!!

[@Little960]

This is some serious bad ass like there's no tomorrow, ass kicking guitar playing. I needed a cigarette after listening to this. Chris is the best.

[@OthO67]

Luc Fontaine Cigarette? With Chinese food?

[@edshannon922]

This guy's heart is HUGE!

[@austinharrison2453]

Heard that

[@MegaGuitarpicker]

I've seen this man live and what a show! Too bad he never got the recognition he deserved. He could play anybody's style including SRV. Top notch musician!

[@murton09]

Agreed, I've been going to see him when he comes here to Orlando for the last 18 years or so whenever I can. He always remembers me and has a few minutes to talk and is just totally encouraging and a nice guy. Huge fan here!

[@timkibbey2218]

This is one of Chris' best charts/solos. There are others, but what Chris does is combine the magical components of Rhythm, lead & bass into a symphony of lay-down blues with all the dissonance & harmonics we expect. He destroys on this cut!

[@INUAGAIN]

he destroyed the song, you are right. normally, I could sing it but he ruined it... you are settling for something less than. He won't make the list of 100 Best Guitar players ever, unless he is a Freemason. Then he becomes of no use as he is then the devils toy...

[@BrianEvansracer]

effin' ridiculous! SOOOOO good!! I wish I had 4 hands so I could give this 4 thumbs up! :-)

[@DallasBobGTO]

He's so laid back it's unreal! Chris feels his music just like SRV, & Gary Moore. What a Powerhouse!

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

laid back but calculated and nuanced

[@INUAGAIN]

'Chris feels his music just like SRV, & Gary Moore.' what a bullshit statement, he is a good actor. Does he even get permission to use other artists songs? Can he do ANYTHING besides COPY a song? He's just playin and acting to get your attention. Would you know a real artist from a fake? I sincerely doubt it. And how long you been listenin to music? Why am I not drawn to listen to another song of Duarte?

[@saltydog7988]

⁠​⁠@@INUAGAIN Did Chris bang your old lady or something? Just wondering because you apparently have nothing better to do than bash on him. If he’s not your cup of tea fine…move on to someone who does. Some of us enjoy what he brings to the table. Do YOU know a real artist from a “fake”? Kinda doubt it…you’re probably a 13 year old in mommy’s basement talking shit about something you know next to nothing about. And couldn’t do if you sold your soul to the devil. Pretty sure I’ve been listening to music longer than you have. And no one gives a flying f*ck whether you’re drawn to another of his songs or not. Just go away.

[@mulekickhandmadeguitars8465]

We saw Chris play in Des Moines, Iowa several years ago. He tore it up big time. Fantastic guitarist and very nice man to talk to.

[@TheBluesmann8]

The guy is just an amazing player period! The guy has a endless flow in his bag of tricks.

[@babydollrock]

So darn amazing! His kinda possessed howling while being into his solo, the coolest bass player and hell of a drummer that both just intuitively feel when he comes to the end and are soooo on point....and the best is him just saying very calm "thank you" with a big grin ...like nothing was. AMAZING 👍👍👍

[@1983mojo1]

Got to see him in Houston probally 20 years ago ,great show.

[@petedazer3381]

Holy shit! This cats on another level altogether! Fantastic!!!!

[@DallasBobGTO]

You're awesome Chris! It's nice to see someone genuinely feel their music throughout their body and0 instrument! You energy and talent are incredible. I Have all of his CD's and they are worth every penny! Rock and Jam On!

[@airborneassasin]

I was thinking .. If only that guitar could talk, but then I said.. Heck that Guitar doesn't need to talk , it can sing. Chris is simply incredible ...

[@SherAFG]

most underrated guitarist on earth

[@PeterSpaeter96]

The word 'underrated' is terribly overrated!

[@markreeves6521]

Tremendous player. I have seen him live 3 times. Always gives it all. Bass and drums locked in.

[@minicooper1568]

First time for me,I'm really impressed with this guy!

[@JayDeeLV]

Still jamming this years later, and still amazed at how fast his hands move. fuck yeah \m/

[@alifareg2881]

Great performance and super guitar talent ....

[@jpeezystudios]

My favorite performance by Chris!

[@d-rock737]

The best drummer of all time

[@jimmuncy5636]

Dang it! I'm addicted to this guy. He's a real artist; he just lets the music and his emotions take over. The result, to me, is guitar magic. He goes off-mike and starts howling. Love his throaty Strat. In my next life, I wanna be like CD. I try to set my tone up like his on my Paul Reed Smith and Mesa Mk V. My MXR Carbon Copy, Fulltone OCD, and Wampler compressor help big-time; those and a Big Horsie Wah is all I need. Notice how his he has his amp travel cases blocking the front of his amps, to prevent that "icepick" phenomenon for closeby listeners. I've even seen guys turn their amps around; they say it sounds better that way. I tend to agree.

[@babydollrock]

What do you mean with "icepick"? Some kind of feedback that hurts the ears? Thanks for the hint, I wouldn't have noticed it nor knew that it was on purpose for some reason...very interesting inside view 👍

[@tonyleeglenn]

Super impressive playing. Wow. Love all the tones he gets as the song progresses.

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

Strat magic!

[@JayDeeLV]

year after year I come back to this performance. not a lot of classic rock legends can perform just as good if not better now than in the past.

[@robertroy1558]

A phenomenal guitar player. A living legend and true artist. One of the most down to earth human beings and compassionate human beings I got the great pleasure to sit and talk to. My deepest respects Love You Chris. Don and Bernie say HELLO

[@RichTones]

Love Chris' playing and style, he's a little wild for some folks, but I love how raw he is and he is not afraid to take chances. Almost goes into Beck mode around 8:00, hold on for the ride. Great video, thank for sharing! I hope to do some videos of his playing on my channel.

[@davidwilkin1202]

Just seen this guy first time, man he got chops !!!😎✌️👍🎸

[@sandrawatson350]

First heard this artist in the mid 90's. Love his sound! Dude can play . . .

[@rdickinsondickinson]

He gets possessed. Amazing channeler of ancient tones!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@jag3217]

Thanks Don this guy is awesome

[@bambamthetalkingcat5599]

Totally all over the place... Love him thought.. so much talent!!!

[@bryanmannoia8410]

wow, how am I just hearing about this guy now?! stellar playing by the whole band.

[@bobtellefsen1746]

ALWAYS the best!!!1 25 tears i've been a fan and the man F&%$#^ing ROCKS!!!

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

I love how you can clearly hear the influence of SRV (and coltrane? in the solos) throughout the song, but he's employing it to make his own superb creation. At one point he plays a Stevie inspired voodoo child lick, as if he were exposing his roots and paying homage to them. The pure emotion he expresses in his playing is just so clear, it's moving.

[@bensblues]

stevie and coltrane... bliss

[@INUAGAIN]

what can he play of his own? most anybody can copy someone else's song, I'm kinda sick of listening to the same old songs played thru a different translator. Why doesn't it inspire me?

[@M4TT4TT4CK]

@@INUAGAINall musicians take inspiration from their influences and for the record his playing is still very fresh and original in my humble opinion

[@johnnysalvny]

I often wondered what happened to Chris after seeing him play in a bar in Woodland Park, Colorado in the mid-'90s. Glad to see he's still out there, not "burned out" like so many others.

[@GaryCainMusic]

I saw him a few months back in Austin, and he's better than ever!

[@orionwarren4244]

Chris has all the technical prowess of SRV but with none of the 'predictability'. Something new and exciting around every turn with this guy!😃

[@BMWBikes-i7n]

Whooouuuwwww! This Band is really great and Chris is one of the best. Fantastic!!!

[@gregcreamer5452]

Chris is an amazing talent, one of the true greats...and he deserved FAR better camera work and producing from the "Legends TV" producing team. The only time they showed him playing was during solos, but as exceptional as that is, what is extraordinary with Chris is his rhythm/lead funky grooves while he's singing...and if the "Legends TV" team had lived up to their title, they would have shown ALL of that as well. A stunning performance, badly shot and produced...but still just glorious to watch and hear. He IS a legendary talent!!

[@bobtellefsen1746]

Fantastic Guitar and tight always...Chris you always have NAILED IT!!

[@bobo21121]

I was listening to Pandora (actually I was blogging)radio one evening not really paying attention to the music and this came on and instantly had to know who this way. what a great talent and amazing guitarist.

[@EddieCompter]

Talk about a very talented and big hearted guy .for real .

[@motokev]

I saw Chris at the Snowbird Blues Festival years ago. I couldn't believe how he played the guitar, just rip roar'n !!

Chris is unbelievable. What a top-shelf talent. Many thanks for posting these videos.

[@markjennings2605]

He's feeling it and so are we !

[@theofficialdiamondlou2418]

I ran sound for Chris many years ago. Great guy , lots of fun ,and very down to earth. I learned a lot from him about just being yourself up there and taking a chance once and awhile! As for his music , it speaks for itself as it should. Awesome !! Thanks bro 🎸🎶🙏✌️

[@johnbuell8035]

It’s ‘once in a while’

[@hipdaddy419]

I have to agree with you, even though I am a big Joe B. fan...... I've seen Joe in concert 4 times. He used to tour through Ohio a lot. I've only seen Chris once but was fuckin' blown away.....I don't like Joe's newer stuff that well. Chris ranks among the best I've ever seen, and I've seen many....you almost expect sparks to fly from the guitar strings.......Another favorite is Walter Trout.....seen him several times too....search Walter Trout "Red House"

[@paladin1352]

Love having him play our private memorial day parties in the back yard every year!

[@SRV32566]

how much does that cost to get him to play a private party?

[@paladin1352]

About $1,500-$2,000. I don't know if he does any other private events. We're just lucky that he comes through this part of the country the same week we have our annual party.

[@shelleywallace1228]

I saw this guy once a long time ago with long curly hair at a blues fest... he is awesome indeed! Still is too. 👏

[@hipdaddy419]

I had the privilege of seeing Chris at a bluesfest about 3 or 4 days before this was taped, He was fucking incredible.! He was the headliner that night and he really brought it. He started his improv-freestyle shredding as he did on this song and I turned around and the crowd started thinning out....apparently they were expecting traditional blues....Chris is far from that.....he is the master of his worn-out Fender. He played well into the evening and just blew me away......

[@rockandbluesmuse]

Outstanding!

[@MarcoCiani-w2u]

Just .... WOW ! 😱🤩

[@rawdonwaller]

I am liking the sound of that drummer's kit.

Great job dodell590, thanks so much for capturing this one!! I'm one of the big legged women this song is about!!!!

[@todhamilton5055]

It took David Brewster to turn me onto this guy. I remember having a Blues instruction book that had him as one of the examples for soloing and the tablature was making no sense to me because I could not process this guy’s approach, he is amazing.

[@slippeddiscbiker]

yeaahh...1st heard Chris year 2000 on mp3 & d/loaded it..
