@Les Caster: yeah-- he's my favorite King, too ! I was lucky to see him in '73. . . and he played with the same intensity he displays in this video.

Every guitar player in the world should watch what is guitar playing. Every singer in the world should listen to THE VOICE. In a nut shell, it is Freddie King. That is how the guitar is played and that is The Voice. American Idol and The Voice should tell the contestant one thing: Freddie King.

This is why KZbin is so great. I only got to see the great man once....and it was not this show. This is absolutely scintillating blues, a phenomenally great and wonderfully representative video of the Texas Cannonball. Simply incendiary blues from one of the greatest ever! Thank you so very much for posting this priceless footage. Had there been no Freddy King, there would have been no Eric Clapton.

[@r.m7921]

How was it like seeing him live?

[@carrrexx7190]

I saw him open for Buddy Miles, Leon Russell headliner. Inglewood Ca. Forum 1971.

[@straight2helll]

And no Albert King no SRV.

[@carlwalker9635]

You are correct, yet, Eric Clapton is a three times inductee to the Rock &Roll Hall of Fame, and is always listed well above Freddy King in the greatest Guitarist of the Rock Era. Pale people are just hypocritical, machievellian pieces of sh*t.

[@JohnDoe-jc3cl]

@@straight2helll No Albert King, definitely no SRV. Stevie lifted a lot of Albert. Especially on the first 2 albums. 😕 By in step / riviera paradise he was getting his own voice

[@taildragger53]

I agree with you. I was raised in London UK and saw Freddie perform with Clapton, Ron Wood, etc in July 1976. Nobody onstage came close to Freddie. The voice, the stage presence. I recall when Sonny Boy Williamson went over to jam with The Yardbirds, Stones ..he said "'These Brits think they play Blues..they sound like shit!"'. I saw Otis Spann in London. What a voice.

[@pabloperez4063]

Sonny would say that in 1963. Some years later, he would feel ashamed for having said these words, simply by watching Eric play... And since 1970, the way he sang

[@bbb8997]

sonny boy passed in '65, not sure he ever reassessed his view. his duet with Eric Burdon on "nobody but you" is excellent":

Of all the bluesmen, and great guitar playing aside, Freddie K's Voice reigns supreme...he was the "Orbison of the Blues"!

[@sammaghett]

I also love Freddie, and he is no doubt the complete package. However, that said, if I had to vote for Blues guitarists worthy of the moniker the Orbison of the Blues (ergo superlative vocal abilities) I'd lean towards Magic Sam and Otis Rush

[@youspace11]

Dr. H In 1972 he would be one of the greats, I suppose but today his playing does not sound remarkable, things have moved on. Freddie Kings voice is certainly one of the best blues voices I have heard, however. Everybody has a favourite bluesman and Freddie comes from an enormous pool of great blues men to choose from.
