[@ianrobins3828]

One of the most underrated blues guitarists in the world today. Just inspiring.

[@PonderPond2000]

S.R.V. thought so too.

[@stickman5454]

One of Canada's best....

[@123456789jessicalynn]

So so true..lucky to have him.

[@sammccue500]

One of the most underrated all-around talents of any genre.

[@canadianroot]

Under-appreciated maybe, not underrated.

[@w.hamilton3327]

I think I’ve seen Colin about 8 times, the first time being at Dr. Rockets in London, Ont. When I lived there for a few years. What a treat to see that rambunctious and talented young man at the start of his career. I feel very blessed to have seen him at the beginning. He was and is my favourite musician and have introduced a lot of people to his music over the years! Thank you Colin for all that you have shared with the world and still are!! Hopefully get to see you at the Grey Eagle here in Alberta in the fall

[@nikosfunk824]

Solid performance from all the band .... Killer vocals guitars rythm section .... Thats music ...And its way better than the studio version

[@bluesdawg8014]

This is a good live band, great players

[@howardfitzner7789]

Injoyed you at the Telluride blues and brews 22 thank you

[@beyondhorizon7697]

Just get to listen to colin james since last year but really still wondering how this artist still underrated good guitarist and beautiful voice life is unfair sometimes

[@karenmiller1433]

Totally smoking! I just love your music, Colin James. It is always so rich and satisfying to listen to. Thank you for your talent.

[@rickysherwin6734]

Hello Karen, how are you doing and how is the weather with you

[@weenerdoggs]

I went to a bunch of great shows at the Commodore and loved every minute of it! Gotta love the way the floor bounced in the place when the house was rocking...just like it is here with CJ and his crew of fine blues peeps :)

[@user-mo7bx4pd3x]

Such a great tune and stellar performance!

[@mickybuchanan3068]

my wife and I are going to start traveling around the US in our rv and I would love to cross over and catch a show with Colin, he has been one of my favorites for years.

[@crunchie2851]

Hey did you guys travel US in an RV? Did you get up here to 🇨🇦? I saw Colin perform one summer at a local place on the lake - we call the 🔑.

[@jeffreybarkin3177]

Yes... COLIN JAMES is Special, especially LIVE with his stellar Band! And They're currently #Touring!

[@georgeburr6512]

One of the things I miss most having moved here from Vancouver, being able to hop down to the Commodore Ballroom for a Colin James gig.

[@duke3196]

Was fortunate enought to catch SRV at this very venue in 1985, while passing thru Vancouver. But, this is awesome indeed!!

[@SethMeister]

Such an incredible night!

[@rockrock4619]

Colin James , Rock !!!!!+!!!!!

[@Daniel1962007]

Epic tunes.... as usual😉

[@jbthompson871]

This is a good version of the original song by Lee Harvey Osmond "Tom Wilson" and funny they are friends and on tour together this month. Check out the LHO version you will not be disappointed. But this is certainly a cool version too!

[@alkie2008]

Jb Thompson actually the song was originally co-written by Colin James and Tom Wilson in 1995 and was on Colin`s 1995 album Bad Habits... Lee Harvey Osmond just formed in 2009 , so yes it`s Tom`s Song but not originally his Persona Lee Harvey Osmonds song.

[@mariebrigittesevaistre2310]

AWESOME....AWESOME live here ! !thxxxx : ahh dear Colin James is A FABULOUS artist ! reall y !!

[@rickysherwin6734]

Hello Marie, how are you doing and how is the weather with you

[@unknownartist2978]

Is it me or…, is the audio one version of the song & the video another? This isn't the correct audio to that video footage. Just saying…… Filmed & recorded live perhaps… however, I believe a great deal of fixes or recording may have been done in post. My eyes show me one thing, and my ears tell me another. If you're gonna claim filmed & recorded live, perhaps you ought to actually do it. At least SRV did it for real…...
