Grandpa Elliot & Oscar Castro - "Only You" - New Orleans Street Music

Grandpa Elliot & Oscar Castro
Toulouse Street, New Orleans
"Only You"

[@deano4999]

Grandpa Elliott (born Elliot Small; July 10, 1944 - March 8, 2022), also known as Uncle Remus, was a veteran street-musician in New Orleans, Louisiana.He's now singing on the STREETS PAVED WITH GOLD. God rest his soul...

[@rudifischer648]

Many years ago my wife and I visited New Orleans for a week. We walked every street, stopped by every sidewalk were music was the choice of the day. Low and behold we came to Jackson Square and the St. Louise Cathedral and there sitting on a box was the old black gentleman with a grey beard and ne belted out songs. Years later I found him again on 'Playing for Change'. Now I know his name - Grandpa Elliot. Grandpa or Opa, as we would call him in my home, you made my day and you will continue to inspire me to be a better human being. Yes, we must Change this world.

it dont matter if its america or not,music brings people together regardless of you're nationality thats wht makes music so great,because when everything else fails around you,music never does.its one thing that can never die that you rely on

[@judithmittelstaedt7688]

The absolute best duo from Grandpa Elliott in the French Quarter! Love & miss him!

[@62musiclover]

Amazing talent. This is what happens when talented people use this talent to express the essence of the music of their soul; that they thoroughly love what they are doing and the means of expression. They don't need a huge stage and all the money and royalties, their reward is sharing the very essence of their talent. Thank you for allowing us to share it by listening. Grandpa Elliot, Oscar Castro, keep sharing please.

[@dh2602]

This is the Miracle of Music...may the world could learn...

[@randomoon]

Wow. I've never heard Grandpa Elliott sing with that rich full voice. Both are awesome!

[@denniswarren3211]

Ja Moon it's amazing what a little reverb does to fill with anyone's voice.

[@gloriajaramillo9055]

Qué maravilla, Grandpa Elliot y un latino, acompañándose, unidos por el amor a la música. Gran tema

[@JudyBroo2001]

never have i heard so much of a persons soul wrapped up in his song... Love to hear you over and over..

[@anthonyreid1539]

I have been following Grandpa Elliot for sometime now. It is rare and unheard this type of music this day. Glad you are keeping up the tradition.

[@Crito22]

DAAAAAAAAMN.....This kind of talent on the street is what keeps me playing indoors.

[@EdArmstrong1]

Oscar has an amazing voice I think. Can you imagine what he would sound like in a studio without background noise. And Grandpa, what can you say. Men of 2 races together in one moment in time when all that just flat don't matter. Too bad there is no more of people just content to live and enjoy their lives. This is what counts. Thanks guys. God Bless you!

[@rotor1851e]

Wow! I sat and watched this 4 times in a row, then I e-mailed it to all of my friends. They both have wonderful voices, the spanish guy is so good. Totally mesmerising!

[@alheitzer2438]

[@dericmclean8100]

I love just about everything Grandpa Elliot does, and this is no exception. What a great voice and a great man. I hope to meet him before his time is up.

[@scaremare45]

This is absolutely wonderful. Gives me chills. Plus the Platters are one of my favorite groups.

[@joaochoa]

Wow. It is so beautiful seeing how two people from different races singing in two different languages can bring such joy with music. Shows what music can do, it more powerful than anything. More powerful than any war, any gun, and any amount of money.

[@sunlotus8]

Oscar Castro is a virtuoso guitarist and an inspired singer, with a great voice, in Honduras 🇭🇳, he played the guitar for the group ANCESTRO, an Andean music group, which showed the way to those of us who continue to play rhythms of the South of America. Thank you Oscar, for his collaboration in the dissemination and conservation of Latin American music...

[@ehitel78]

Those kind of music is simply fantastic.

[@FRANPAGA]

Cuanta gente desconocida caminan por las calles, con dones increíbles en los cuales nadie les ve la cara...pero basta que canten, y de pronto uno hace un alto, allí se descubre las inmensidades ocultas de estas personas...el que lleva la música por dentro atraves de su voz o instrumento, esta lleno de sensibilidad incomprendida.

[@itsmyaeroplane27]
