Colin James Live @ Q107 - "Man's Gotta Be A Stone"

Colin James came by to play an intimate and interactive show for Q107 winners. This is "Man's Gotta Be A Stone."

[@pbnjmz]

Billy Gibbons vibes all day long on this track :)

[@canadianroot]

He should be included in the same breath as the other world renowned guitar greats. He's that good. If he'd been from the US or the UK, he'd be a household name.

[@PansBox11]

I remember this guy used to be on Super Dave Osborne all the time, but I can't find any videos.

[@rouxsterblackbird8122]

[@michaelcowie888]

I'm a long time blues fan and he is under rated as a guitarist.

[@sammccue500]

Michael... he's underrated as a talent, period. The guy's got it all.

[@patrickchamberlain5102]

Found this gut in 1990 doing Percy Sledges Sudden Stop.....man this guy ROCKS!

[@janicemercer1319]

Wow! Hes great! He suprised the crowd at a Bryan Adam's concert in Victoria about 5 5 years ago! Awesome

[@johnnyvandeweerd9577]

Tin pan Ally is not An SRV song

[@PansBox11]

Perfect.

[@slamtilt01]

I hope he gets invited to play at Eric Clapton's next Crossroads festival.

[@GerryBarnumMusic]

[@Trahijo16]

Truly one of the best!!!

[@jowen9991]

He's awesome! Gotta love me some Colin James, ;).

[@mojo4080]

That's the stuff lads

[@johncartelli]

is it me or is this song(including solo) dangerously close to ZZ Tops "Lagrange"

[@imannonymous7707]

Thats unfair ya its got a shuffle grove but even the chords are different Blues are passed down traditionally and each person develops their own take. It really is true tho the greatest songs have all been written......love colin james

[@sonyamlb]

A true Canadian Great!

[@dtatm101]

Rock'in!!

[@mrzack388]

A real man is a stone.

[@RobotLegJim]

My brother & I have wanted to get to one of his shows for a very long time, and we even had tickets to a show, and then fate conspired against us both, and we couldn’t go. What sucks even more, was they were excellent seats. 😢 Bucket list is watching me, damnit!🙃

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Excellent Colin ...more energy ...always improves the show 😉❤

[@thomasmagnum6588]

SILLY ! WOW

[@dalebasher]

Love 'im...but...ain't he rippin' off Satriani rippin' off off ZZ Top rippin' off off off John Lee Hooker?

[@scottcooneymusic6736]

Of course but its great anyway

[@btol1Ogmt]

+SerenityNow Hahahaha I agree .. who cares, it's great. A how how how ...

[@btol1Ogmt]

+btol1Ogmt how

[@slamminshaft]

It's not a rip off its a very common blues run only so much you can do on a guitar

[@sammccue500]

It all comes from somewhere, and ya' gotta' start someplace. 12 tones is kind of limited anyway, don't you think?

[@maryhuhnke8496]

I'm getting a ZZ-TOP vibe!! Love It!! 🎧😎

[@jimmyt49]

That's a badass man right there ya'll

[@FredoLaredo]

Tasty!

[@theoriginalbillholt]

This song could make me get in trouble. ; ]

[@imannonymous7707]

Does anybody know if this is an original or who recorded it

[@billholt174]

I really dig Colin James, but this sounds like 95% ZZ Top. Still kickin', though. This is his own, co-written with Daryl Burgess, from Colin's 2009 slbum 'Rooftops And Satellites'.

[@gracelewis25]

this man is THE BEST!

[@rickysherwin6734]

Hello there, how are you doing

[@BarbVice13]

I can't stop coming back to this song. It's just so, so good. More importantly, it describes my guy so well. He works his ass off remodeling houses and his work is best quality. In fact, I was supposed to continue helping him this week on a remodel but I've been home very sick since Monday. As a consequence, he's been working by himself from dawn to beyond dusk to meet deadline. I worry about him, and am so thankful for his health and work ethic. Thank you for this song, Colin James. May every woman fully appreciate the high value of a hard working, good man.
