Sleepy Labeef - Boogie woogie country man

[@rogerlieger7578]

Un grand monsieur du rockabilly., du roch'n'roll et de la country. J'ai pratiquement eut tous ses albums.

[@jackluteijn]

nix nederlands vertalen.. wij nederrlanders beheersen verschillende talen.... zoals nu blijkt niet iedereen....

[@drumsloud1878]

Sleepy's good buddy Rick Klang was thinking about their good times and telling me stories just before he passed. He was looking forward to hanging with Sleepy again.

[@willybrown5951]

La voz profunda del rockabilly imposible de olvidar y uno de los grandes!

[@Jootie_de_Kop]

Nobody Boogiewoogies like Sleepy! This is the real stuff.

[@karenklink-jh2hh]

Sleepy use to play at Dutchess on 24th Ave. In Port Huron Mi. Dave and I loved him.

[@laroudoune]

a legend of the pure rockabilly style has left us but luckily his voice and his interpretations are engraved forever in wax. it's nice to listen to it again, a little boost of nostalgia for an oh so dynamic era..

[@cuznrichallison5285]

Sleepy was a very underrated Rocker. He could compete with the best!!

[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

I'd never seen or heard of Sleepy's music prior to one night maybe 25 or 30 years ago when he happened to play a venue near my home. In the mood for a show I stopped into the Cubby Bear on the North Side of Chicago and was treated to a tremendous show by LaBeef and his band. It was like time-traveling back to the glory days of Sun Records in the 1950s.

[@berlinupnorth982]

In 1991 I was driving thru Portland Maine and caught a sign saying Sleepy Labeef Live Tonight so I was in the mood to see someone live music. I watched and listened for a while and myself being a performing guitarist and singer carefully absorbed the whole vibe and realized I was witnessing a real pro and band that had character and charisma.

[@Booyah360Report]

HI I was there on piano and tenor sax!

[@parhogbom5160]

This is real music!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍🇸🇪

[@jackluteijn]

je hebt gelijk ...aar deze man is absoluut goed.. maar er zijn nog oneindig meer betere

[@ChengManChing]

The power and presence of Sleepy’s music never quite made it onto his recordings, good as they were... Great memories of hanging with his band at the Hillbilly Ranch (Boston, MA) and lying on the grass at the Hatch shell listening to the master lay down incredible versions of the 5000 songs he knew off the top of his head.

[@sandsoftime1954]

Wow great post. I had been in the Hillbilly a couple of times myself in the past but was too drunk to realize that they actually had live music at the time. A real gritty seedy joint but it gave Park Square some character. all gone now

[@ChengManChing]

@@sandsoftime1954 Ha, yeah the Hillbilly was a great place! I couldn't believe it when one of my housemates (a musician) showed it to me and told me about Sleepy, it was like walking into a roadhouse out in the boondocks, but it was right in the middle of Boston! I'd go there every night when Sleepy was playing, but almost never any other time. That's why the band started sitting with me, they probably figured I was a fixture. Met a few women who were, let's say different, from my usual fare... Years later, I'd catch Sleepy at Johnny D's in Davis Square, also closed now. :(

[@sandsoftime1954]

@@ChengManChing A hillbilly bar in a Trailways bus station in the middle of Boston, how bad could it be? Chuckle,chuckle,burp !. I use to like the Teddy Bear too. I was young and crazy and just didn't care. Now I'm old and I still don't care. As far as "those women" go, ahh, different stokes for different folks. I don't take personal inventories. Always nice to talk to another Bostonian. A safe and happy new year to you Cheng!

[@ChengManChing]

@@sandsoftime1954 Happy New Year to you too!

[@padraickennedy1232]

RIP big man you'll never be forgotten.

[@luckystrike7110]

His voice is so particular that we would recognize Sleepy amongst a lot of other rock and roll singers. His style is as heavy as him.

[@ChengManChing]

Pete Guralnick (rock writer for Rolling Stone and other papers) described Sleepy's voice as the only basso profundo in the history of rock and roll. You really had to see him live to appreciate how powerful it was. And his rockabilly/country blues guitar playing was totally kick ass too.

[@skeggiskjeldarson9513]

Excellent performer - faithful to the rockabilly style!

[@johnny0628]

RIP Sleepy. Saw you twice here in Aus. They were great shows. Thanks for the memories.

[@johngazzana5089]

When you hear this most singers today sound like there singing. nursery rhymes in pre school this is real hard core triple x rock n. roll

[@smeeagain3102]

John Gazzana 😂also when dancing looks like their having convulsions and muscle spasms 😂

[@davidkirkpatrick712]

Saw him live with Jason D Williams great show they brought the house down

[@barryfix]

Stands tall - Great voice and pure rock

[@bonkeydollocks1879]

RIP Big boss man, keep rocking in heaven, always be a fan, the music will keep your memory alive

[@RastroIguana]

Sleepy labeef.........P A S A D A,,!,,,, que voz unica

[@kayesampson3671]

Ahh Sleepy! Last saw him around 1968 in Sydney. Every young cat ( not poof ) 16-30 wanted to see The Master. He was 100 years old even then and an absolute legend. Came all the way from the Gong to see him! I know, i know, a massive achievement, thank you, but he was worth it! Pete 379.

[@ChengManChing]

Sleepy is an exact contemporary of Elvis Presley (born 6 months later in July 1935). He tells a story about loaning Elvis a guitar back before either of them were well known, and getting it back in pretty poor shape.

[@leeetchells609]

100 years old? .Sleepy was 33 in 1968. Must have been that wild lifestyle 🤣

[@tonycool2773]

SUPER !!!!!!!!!!! le guitariste à du boulot et il le fait bien

[@rockabilly127]

encore un grand qui nous quitte mais sa musique restera à jamais dans nos cœurs merci à lui pour ce qu’il nous a apporté.Jose de France 73 ans.

Lets have it this is real Rock and Roll Boogie great

[@raynellecopelandrogers8130]

I remember when I was little and he would get the family together in a little bar in Kilgore to catch up and listen to him and his wife (my mom was his cousin)

[@demaXxXx]

If that didn't wake you up to rock & roll. Thank You for posting on YT

This guy played at least three or four times a year in a bar around the corner from where I was living at the time. always thought I catch his show soon or later, but I never got around to it. Think I missed out hearing some great music too.
