Back in 2017 I had the pleasure of seeing GCJ in GrandRapids. That day my mother was diagnosed with leukemia. She made me still go to the show. I had made a comment about my situation and expressed catfish blues was always a favorite song of my mother. Gary came out on stage said a few words directed to me about my mom and opened his show with a like 10 minute rendition of catfish blues. I was brought to tears.

[@mistyblue5386]

That is so beautiful 😍 😢😊and that's love for those that love him and his 🎶 music.

Keepin them alive and giving them a good good boost. it will be huge again. after all modern western (western part of the EARTH) is born and bred from the blues. Period. without blues there be no Rock and roll.with out blues there be no ,hold up,no hip hop.....dont forget the "b" in rnb....its blues.... yessir E BOB. BLUES IS THE SHEE OTT.

I was at this gig. He was one of many support acts supporting The Rolling Stones. If I remember he was the first act of the day, it was fucking hot and most people only really cared about the Stones, for me however, this was the stand-out performance of the day.

[@rorybeavins5478]

He ain't no joke. laying down some heavy sounds with such a cool style. Stones aight, but this guy got it

I really like that dirty muffled sound he has, awesome player.

[@Veazeysbanjo]

I'm a firm believer in that people who find that sound are really looking for it and deserve the honor-title of musician

Him and Joe Bonamassa, present generation of finest Blues!!! I suspect Muddy Waters is smiling that the genre is still alive and well represented!

In the great and grand tradition of blues legends, I believe Mr. Clark Jr. will be listened to for many eons to come! Simply excellent!!!

[@lucinaslaughter5814]

I absolutely agree!

[@VinniE_official.]

Confirmo este comentario en pleno 2023!

[@Starsk25]

I first saw him during Clapton's Crossroads guitar fest, I stopped in my tracks and said "wow. Who is this guy?" He was the best part of the fest. A genuine blues man.

[@michellebeckstrom6110]

Exactly my reaction when hearing him from my living room. if it was the 2010 or any of the crossroads festivals that he's been a part of you are a lucky person

[@violinmke]

Clapton said Gary Clark Jr makes him want to play the guitar again.

[@soerenguitarlessons9947]

Wow! Gary Clark plays with incredible intensity, and with bends "out of this world". Reminds me a little of Jimi, but Gary Clark sure has his own voice.

[@huletnadof313]

Notice how the video starts out with Clark and the bass player and drummer (the rhythm guitarist shows up much later in this video). A lot like Hendrix's band with Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell. All in all a great performance!

[@STARK557]

HE IS A TRUE BLUES MAN!YEA!!

[@smiffmo]

I wish I could like this twice.

I'm apologize but I've never heard of this gentleman and I absolutely love the blues, and the electric guitar. Definitely Jimi Hendrix would be as impressed as I am. I will be watching him from now on. Just amazing

Gary Clark Jr. is truly excellent. Exactly what we need in this musical wasteland.

[@minnierose15]

The only bad thing about this performance is that it ended...🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@detroitlady7201]

Saw him at Claptons Crossroads Concert. Pure talent! Been big fan ever since!

[@withmygoodeyeclosed]

So much Hendrix, i mean those bends, dude's got it down. I like it!

[@scioarete7987]

See, I don't really see Hendrix in him. He doesn't seem to be going for that funk and vodoo mystique, nor the primacy of the guitar solo and shredding. I'm not sure who to compare him to though. He has a lot of fusion in his work.

[@averyadrian1534]

Tormented soul That’s what I hear It’s coming through the guitar Ah yes - the honesty is refreshing

[@mrticketmaster]

Just can’t get enough of this track, blows my mind, drummer be bossing life too ...................if I had a movie, I would enter the opening scene to this 🎸

[@jamesb8193]

Hell yeah that drummer was like Mitchell's little brother. Lol. This performance and the one at The Surf Lodge Hen My Train Pulls In transports me back in time. man...

[@danielschaeffer1294]

It's really great that this guy is doing with the Hendrix legacy the precise opposite of what Monte Monthomery is doing. Monte takes it into a technical stratosphere where nobody can follow him. Gary takes it all back to,the Delta roots by capturing the raw emotion. Real blues has humor, dignity, stoicism and anger, all balancing each other out. And this guy has it ALL! Albert Collins would have loved this.

[@bnfox]

Gary Clark has officially gone from "really good" to..."great." A very deep performance.

[@carlosm.devasconcelllos3939]

..."I went up a different person came down somebody else..." Actually it's not him at all... lol

Cool Bob Dylan on drums and Joe Bonamassa on bass and Will Smith guitar and vocals!!

To be honest i think Gary Clark Jr. looks more like Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out and Black Panther)

[@jr-xs9tf]

And AL Capone on rhythm guitar.
