What the heck is it about Gary Clark Jr? His music is so simple and so ridiculously interesting. His vocal and lead/rhythm phrasing, theme and variation, are simply perfect. God must love the blues cuz He sent us Gary Clark Jr.

[@MarkMerrick]

And I do respect what rappers are putting out there. They are speaking from their experience which many times has been terribly difficult. In fact the way they use their experiences to make music and even develop and extend music is quite astounding. It's evidence of beauty and power in them that has always been in them, the divine spark, the image of God. If I could offer them one thing I would tell them that they are loved and cherished by God who demonstrated His love by sending His Son Jesus. They are beautiful, perfect, and forgiven just like all of us because of Him. That one idea gives hope that can transform the body, mind, and spirit.

[@samplerstitcher]

He has that certain magic....

[@remembercollins8244]

I literally just listened to Gary Clark, Jr. for the first time less than 5 minutes ago and I am totally hooked . This is my kinda groove . YYYYEEEEESSSSSSSSS !!!!!

[@dickgozinya8673]

Thank goodness someone is still playing music like this today.

[@TheMRMACHONACHO]

Eric Zapata. Unjustly outrageously underrated. What a beautiful soulful player

[@waynenutter63]

If you like the blues this is your man.

[@soulfulman1971]

That bass player is killing it. Gotta love the Blues.

[@valeriethompson1166]

Im in my 70's. i have had the good fortune to hear many of the old masters up close and personal. I wish Gary Clark the best.

[@ARDG89]

Check out kingfish. An even younger blues artist I wish he did a collaboration with gary.

[@NSCA12]

There are people who play The Blues then there are those that FEEL The Blues. There isn't a single song of his that feels forced. Every chord speaks to the soul!!!

[@NThe313]

Say THAT! Look at the expressions on his face. That's FEEL not FAKE. He is having sex with that song❣

[@johnmirabile3535]

YOU SAID IT! WAS THINKING THE SAME THING, HE BECOMES ONE WITH THE SONG, ANY SONG, THERES PLAYING ON TOP OF A BLUES THEN THERES GETTING INSIDE OF A BLUES....NEVER HEARD HIM OUTSIDE OF A SONG! CLAPTON SAID, HE SAW 2 PPL WITH A NATURAL FLOW, GARY AND JIMMY HENDRIX, I LOVE JIMMY, BUT THE MORE I LISTEN TO GARY? IF I HAD TO CHOOSE ONE, I THINK ITS GARY! ONLY BC OF HIS STYLE I LEAN MORE TOWARDS GARYS SOUND AND THE FEELING OF HIS PLAYING, SO SMOOOTHHHHHH....BUT ITS VERRRRYYYY CLOSE...

[@troubledtimes]

That’s because he speaks truth

[@wayne6828]

True dat

[@joshuacarlson4768]

RIGHT ON…

[@mariobarreto]

I can't express how it pleases me to hear Gary playing a Tele.

[@Pazkizzle]

First thing that popped to my mind also

[@PlAyInSomeBluez]

I'm assuming he is doing this becausee the song is originally done by Albert "Iceman" Collins, also known as the king of the telecaster

[@TheGearShiftGurus]

+Max Malmgren that's it man!

[@doitnowvideosyeah5841]

So used to Gary w humbuckers it is refreshing. I agree with the Collins ref, it must be why he is playing Tele but the bite, it is perfect

Oh, my, that strut! Best modern Blues man in my opinion.

Him or Marcus King. Samantha Fish isn't bad either

[@timothygrayson]

What I like about this guitarist is how loud it is. It's blues at the right volume. Rock my soul brother.

[@frankwall5177]

Gary is the real deal. I am disabled so I was lucky enough to sit in the front row at his red rocks show a few years back. My time is short. I am so blessed to have been able to see him perform live.

[@tetagorgoni7813]

Muddy, Hooker, BB, Prince, Jimi and all soulful guitarists before Lives ON in this man!! He's a Prince and a King, literally! Love him. Thank you Gary for heeding the call!

This guys are not joking. The whole band is killer.

[@woohoo2023]

I am so glad I found Gary Clarke jr 🎸

[@joshhobbs3519]

I always love Gary's tone, but I was struck immediately by the sound of that tele. The man has tone for days.

Still amazes me…

I have this behavior of not looking at bands when they play ( it’s music not movies, figure it out!) and can say on only 3 occasions have I ever turned and watched them play.......This Man is one of those occasions!.

[@iancumbers494]

I will sleep better tonight knowing Gary Clark is around the blues is safe and sound once again thank you kindly that lead guitar just ripped the scar off my soul god bless the telecaster then and now the future is looking brighter come on lets go........ my mother use to tell me there be days like this.....Zapata /s rhythm a perfect blend .....love it ..

Some people go through life refusing to be satisfied about anything. They're not worth our attention; Clark Jr. definitely is.

Mr. Clark's Music takes me to a place where there is no ugliness I am white and went through the segregation in the 60s my ancestors do not make me proud of their greed and superiority of other races including the American Indian and other indigenous tribes in other continents your inner soul shines through your music and I'm very glad I found it thank you

[@unsinnkim3690]

thank the internet! there is still hope for real music!

[@bobwood2496]

Gary has the most hair rousingly authentic guitar sound to come along since Hendrix. With that wailing, liquid voice, this young man is the complete electric blues package. And he can pitch some very tasty soul for those wholike it as well. You can hear echoes of Curtis Mayfield in that smooth tenor delivery.

[@joelsimms4636]

His uncle is WC Clark. A well know musician around Austin. Gary comes from good stock!

[@TheEnglishRedneck45]

Have a sup of Marcus King? I think you'd enjoy what he's putting out too if you're not already aware of his band's playing.

[@hellenmoore7878]

Magnificent musician&singer as well....

[@jordanlevin8]

this might be my favorite blues solo on the internet. Gary just sits in the same fret position for the entire thing, but absolutely nails the tone. sometimes less is more!

[@Primus_suspectus]

That's how the real pros do it. Focus their brainpower on the expression rather than moving along the fretboard

[@callousart430]

Same key and lock of Red House

[@BrenQ99]

Zapata’s solo?

[@frankiecalabro2617]

He’s so authentic! God bless you Gary!

[@the510wagon]

Goosebumps. Every time. There's the "blues" and then there's The Blues. And another thing called Feel. Other dudes could play this song and it would be good... But you can't measure the Feel these guys have.

This is an Albert Collins song with a Magic Sam twist. Check out their versions! Do the blues/rock and roll some justice! Dig deeper! Find the roots of the roots! This kind of music didn’t just spawn in Gary’s head, he has influences. Learn about them and keep this kind of music alive! I think the blues will have a HUGE second coming in the next 50 years. Idk about you guys, but I want to be invloved

[@rams6702]

absolutely insane to hear my favorite texan bluesman with my favorite chicago bluesman mashed in one

[@danielschaeffer1294]

People keep rediscovering the blues when they realize how shallow and boring most modern pop really is. Gary was always there.

That vibrating Strat tone is amazing and timeless......Epic solo X2.

I love this guy and his band oh how it makes my soul feel good and pressure if this world lifted off my heart after losing so many love ones from cancer and my wonderful late husband 7 yrs ago who was musician left handed bass player He would have loved this young man music he owned every Lp of Miles Davis he sure can play that guitar he’s fire and his band too

Always coming back here. i like how he used Magic Sam's "All Your Love" riffs with the Iceman soulful lyrics

[@disposable_hero2748]

I just came to this conclusion ! My guitar teacher had me check out some of magic Sam’s work after I told him I was a huge Gary fan. Instantly recognized the opening riff on guitar. Much respect to magic Sam!

[@tarsier419]

Every time I see multiple people complain about "the entire comment section bitching about something" I can't seem to find the posts or it literally stems from one comment. Let's all shut up and listen to this amazing musician.

I HAVE SAY IT AGAIN THAT TELE IS AMAZING IT HAS THAT SOUL YOU WANT IN A TELECASTER....AND YES I KNOW! GARY MAKES IT SING FOR SURE! MAYBE THE GREATEST BLUES GUIYARIST EVER! CAN DEFINITLY MAKE AN ARGUMENT! HERES WHY? 1.....FLOW, HE GETS INSIDE THE RYTHM LIKE NOBODY ELSE.....! 2.FEEL, HIS PLAYING IS FROM THE SOUL, THERES NO BORROWED LICKS, GREAT PLAYERS PLAY FROM INSIDE....3. TOUCH, HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHEN TO LET UP ANDGO FOR IT! I CAN KEEP GOING HES A 10 OUT OF 10 AS FARAS IM CONCERED!

Gary Clark, Jr’s music is beyond relevant because of the man’s talent & that he takes on the tone of this country’s Racism, that is worse than ever simply because his message is “We can’t believe we are going backwards. This shouldn’t even EXIST ANYMORE!!.”
