I used to be a shoe shine contractor in a major truck stop. About 30 years ago he and his band spent a few hours there while their tour bus was being repaired. I shined 2 pairs of his boots and had such a pleasant conversation with him. He was a super nice guy. He tipped well then joined me in the restaurant during my break and bought me dinner. He played different instruments (a bada** fiddle player!) and almost every genre of music. I asked him what music style he liked best and he said "whatever I'm playing at the moment".

Saw him in a small bar/club in Durango Colorado in 1971 or 1972. I had no idea who he was. I was sitting in front watching him, and playing along on my "Air Guitar". I was so into his performance. He asked me to get on stage with him, and I did! He stood behind me, and wrapped his guitar around in front of me, and played while I watched first hand. Pretending it was me doing all of those things. Amazing experience. So fun.

I was stationed near New Orleans in the early 2000’s. Gatemouth used to drop in at M&M Bar-b-Q on Highway 11 in Slidell LA on Sunday afternoons. One day me and my buddy were the only ones in there as Gatemouth just jammed away on the little stage. Then jumped into his old black ‘65 Cadillac and head down to his little old house on the lake. Very good times.

He also did a show with Roy on Austin Coity Limits . I heard him twice in the seventies . Once in his hometown of Orange and the other in near by Beaumont , Texas . He was born in Louisana and his family moved to Texas , when he was young . Later in life he had a place in New Orleans , but huricane Katrina destroyed it along with his instruments and awards . He then moved back to Orange Texas , which is where he died . I worked as a repairman at a music store in Beaumont and got free tickets to his show at a tiny club in Beaumont . When I went to the club to get my tickets I got to talk to him for awhile . He also played the hell out of the fiddle at his concerts .

I started going to Gate's shows beginning in 1990 when I moved to Dallas at the age of 22. I rarely missed a performance throughout the nineties & early 2000s when he came to town which was usually about twice a year. They were always at intimate club venues. We usually chatted it up between sets. He was always magical. He did one gig at Poor David's Pub where he played solo acoustic. It was amazing. The Dallas Morning News called it one of the years ten best live performances.
@danielschaeffer12945 жыл бұрын
Love Gatemouth! Several points you touched on. 1) Watching his hands he's clearly in the Texas folk-blues tradition best embodied in Lightnin' Sam Hopkins. It's just that he's doing it all halfway up the neck, at ferocious speed, and he can do it because of that capo! 2) Albert Collins learned a lot from Gate -- including the capo. Matter of fact that whole tradition of single string lightning-fast soloing has always been an earmark of Texas blues, as witness Freddie King, Johnny Winter, Bugs Henderson, and SRV. And there's a new kid on the block: Gary Clark Jr. KZbin vids are showing up of what this guy can do live, and he plays with so much feeling he's SCARY!

Saw Clarence at the King Edward Hotel blues bar (Locally known as “The King Eddy”) in Calgary, Alberta. He was a master of Texas blues, but also played a variety of R&B, Cajun (“Louisiana Zydeco” is a favorite), jazz, and country. In a side note, The King Eddy was closed and abandoned after 2004. In 2013 the century old hotel was taken apart brick-by-brick, restored, and became a permanent feature of Canada’s National Music Centre. It remains a venue for live music today. Another great analysis, Fil. I start every morning with at least one of your shows. Thanks for reviving this memory of Gatemouth.

I was blessed to have known Gate and hang out with him at his place in Slidell,LA.. I moved back to Slidell in 2003 on old hwy 11 close to rats nest rd. Gate live on that same rd. 1 day i was driving down hwy 11 my car died (72 midget) bad electrical lol and a guy came over to help me . He asked if I did handy work said he needed help .I needed $$$ so great! I show up the next day and he shows me the house,s we would be working on.2 shacks over the water right on hwy11 .When I walked up I saw a 72 black Cadillac with gates insignia on the side window and I was like ???!!! Then the asks me if I have ever heard of Gatemouth Brown !!!! Yes why !!!!! ??? Well this is his house 🏠 😳 !!! Sure enough Gate answers the door !!!! He was real nice thanked me for coming to help . I'll never forget the first night he played a song for me on his radio he had done called darling of the dance hall ,to this day I haven't heard it since .Amazing song !!! Anyways so fast fwd 1 month and Gate is going to Japan for 2 weeks to play so he gives me his phone number and ask me to please keep an eye on it for him cause the guy that introduced me to Gate was steeling from him so he was worried while he was gone . 2 weeks later I get a call from Gate HEY MAN GET DOWN HERE HE BROKE IN MY PLACE !!! SO we got in the Cadillac and went looking for him. That night Gate took me to dinner when we came back to his place the light was on and that guy was in gates house!!!!! 79 yrs. Old he jumped out of his car 🚗 and grabbed the end of a garden hose that had been cut off and started beating this guy with it 🙄 🤣!!! Gate had a 457 he carried as an honorary sherifF of the Slidell sheriff s depth. And told that guy next time he would shoot his ass dead!!!! LMAO IT WAS CRAZY !!! He was full of life and fight till the end . July 13 of 2005 I got out jail on some bullshit weed charge that Gate was very upset about cause he did not drink ever just had 2 pipes 1 for tabbaco 1 for weed :).So August 29th 2005 Katrina hit and leveled everything !!!! 1 week later I went back to see the damage .You couldn't get down hwy11 without a license with ur address cause debris was everywhere!!! I was slowly driving trying to figure out where Gates house used to be .Then there it was Gates 72 Cadillac stuck half way in the ground with the trunk sticking above ground !!!!! Nothing left of either house but I found stuck in the mud 4 BRAND NEW GATE MOUTH CD'S STILL WEAPPED IN CELIFANE !!!!!!!
