This guy is real a legend.

[@capricorn2816]

When Dave Mustaine calls u a legend... love George Thorogood! I bet Dave could play some bad ass blues!!! Both u guys are Legends!

I have seen George 7 times now in concert.

[@virginiaallison2987]

I totally agree.

[@rickmansbridge9475]

Well said

[@clementeandgarcia8331]

We are very fortunate to have lived through this era of fantastic music.

[@TEXASFENDERBENDER]

This guy is one of the very few that kept true Rock & Roll alive through the hair band & techno pop age. When his first EP dropped in 78-79 he BLEW everybody away with his raw-kick in the teeth delivery. Fools that are caught up in fretboard frenetics don't really appreciate the simplicity of his playing or the absolute mastery of what he does.

[@tlindsay1007]

Agreed! Just watching this, the nuances and perfection are amazing.

[@cesarcabrera5937]

New to this, I heard this song, or 3 seconds of it as I drove by a house, took me months of hardsleep and unconsentrated work due to the beat taking over my thoughts. 3 months later, a neighbor plays it and I ran to find out who it was. YES! Success finally. Now I sit at home alone bumping in the dark drinking away walking among clowds, engulfed by the beat......

[@Seth-oh2ph]

A little late to comment but listen to Stevie ray Vaughans 1984 version

[@lawrencesantana7253]

Same way I felt when I first heard it in the '80s. Im 56 now and it is still one of my favorites.

[@PG-kd9mc]

And a line to Go with it😊

[@juanortiz4016]

Iam 48 been listening to this since I was 16. Playing it now

[@jimbressler1563]

Thanks George

[@peterinserra1093]

One of the most amazing blues covers ever IMHO. whenever it is raining or im feeling depressed this is my go to song to bring things down. listening to his incredible guitar work just hits something in my brain that brings me right back up and back to business. he definitely blows away the original version and just makes it the only version you need to hear!

[@brucenewbrough2098]

Nice

[@brileyvandyke5792]

George gets a distinctive sound out of that Gibson. Love that slide.

[@ethanhayes513]

I know man. He matches the tone of that sax almost excellently. He is such a good guitarist. Really big inspiration to get me back into playing!

[@madduxdonald2800]

You probably dont care but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.

[@scottcooneymusic6736]

no amount of money is too much to see a show like this

[@AnnaLVajda]

I saw him around 2009 sixty bucks I think. Nice venue too.

[@phatminer]

I agree, my wife and I went so many years ago in Newcastle Australia. Just awesome still one of the best nights

[@MrCowboyMouse]

Saw him in Fort Bliss back in 94 or 95. No pyrotechnics, no fancy show, just pure, unbridled rock and roll.

[@sonjavandam1306]

@@phatminer I'm envious you saw him in Oz, I'm in Brissy & would kill to see them..👏👏🇦🇺🍷

[@phatminer]

@@sonjavandam1306 hope you get to see him soon, I want to take my son.

[@susanclark3095]

The saxophone was significant support in this instrumental. Love its completeness.

[@woodson21]

“I hope that’s not the only thing that gets pulled off tonight!” Right on George!

[@hunnybunnybuddy]

One of the greatest guitar players in the world.

[@thaitom449]

Good but not that good, Steve vai, Joe satriani,Gary Moore, too many to mention

[@hunnybunnybuddy]

Simon Ladds, agree to disagree. Mark Knopfler is another one.

[@sonjavandam1306]

Stevie Ray Vaughan.😇 Rip Stevie.❤️

I agree. I have since the early 1980s

I loved him since, Bad To The Bone came out! Saw him in concert WONDERFUL PREFOMER

[@ronaldlogan7983]

George is so talented,yet so humble, and that is refreshing. This is my fav cover

[@johnpeymann2783]

We almost got in to see you this night George, drove 200 miles and thought we could somehow get tickets...no such luck...man I'm pissed that we missed you that night! RIP Gut... we had some good times.

[@vincentbrannelly8786]

His slide is so beautiful its hard to explain .

[@Old-dog-jams]

Proof that a hollow body electric Gibson ES-125TDC CAN be used without uncontrollable feed back on stage. George is the man to pull it off.

[@patriciavandemark1527]

😇.,.. I ALWAYS come back to this clip!...💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@bruceleeroy8644]

World greatest solo guitarist hand down

[@Dominicabbate1]

he isn’t a solo guitarist he will even tell u himself he can’t go out there alone and play

[@nathanfrahm]

What an amazing live performer!

[@lorib2150]

I remember George and the Delaware destroyers playing at the stone ballon in Newark Delaware when I was a kid. My dad took me to see them in Fairfax VA finally when I was 13. I absolutely love that slide guitar. This is my favorite remake of any song ever

[@janetdellinger85]

I lived in Fairfax and went to see George at the Fairfax show....I’ve seen him 6 times at various shows.....George and his band were awesome. PLAY ON GEORGE !!!!!!!!

[@jarodcrazyindian]

We need more of this. 2022 and BEYOND!!!

[@billwilkinson4012]

Bloody brilliant cover, one of the best arrangements. George's tapping with r/h fingers and the discordant sound effect of the solo personifies the tragedy of the sky. Again, bloody brilliant.

[@marybrumbaughprisner7625]

Man he could sing anything! Love this song and everything else he sings

[@markpeyton8833]

ABSOLUTELY OUTFREAKIN STANDING!!!!

[@1e0s]

Remember George at Live Aid back on the day. To this day, He Stole the fookin show!!!

Yup

I don't know where old Lonesome George ranks among other Blues musicians, but I love his playing and just his feel for what he's playing. Just awesome.
