[@MrBobcatsband]

Slightly fast...starchy feel. Very good guitar player. Great feel/tones/pitch...mostly stays in the Albert zone nicely. Annoying keys...not greasy enough for my taste. Vocals a bit affected but a decent singer. Needs to live a bit longer and harder.

[@speedygonzales4707]

Almost too perfect! - looks like it was filmed as part of a movie. Very authentic. This dude is so authentic he doesn't need a plectrum and leaves the bridge pickup cover on his tele.

[@willabestorms6059]

Remarkably Guy King is a expert musician and vocalist... This song defines the balance from yester year to today. Guy has defined a musical highway, and a permanent direction of the blues guitar... I consider Guy King to be the best of the best...

[@narvul]

Wow.... a Tele with the ashtray still on it!

@Andrew O'Brien It is and it probably is.

[@threeshocks5769]

That drunken stagger the way you dragged out the notes at the end was so spot on😎💙🖖

[@robertjohnson3855]

Love the blues I could listen to good blues for hours, especially Clapton, Billy Gibbons, Jonny Lang, etc.

[@andresgarcia3074]

I've also just found out about this incredible musician. Boy can he make a guitar weep. Gave me goose bumps. And looking at his other videos, he's also got very interesting jazz phrasing. Thank you Mr.King!!!

[@MarkVestbergMusic]

Very very nice, heard this about a hundred times in less than a week! Very nice talent, and definitely a good inspiration. im only 17 years old, but i have my own blues band where we also play a bit of Albert kings tunes, so it's nice to get hear the song in a new perspective!

[@trumanshow3389]

I love the sound and playing here. Wish he would play that guitar today.

[@guyking1]

Thank you 🙏 I actually switched to the Gibson ES-335 since then and I personally like it better. It allows me to sound more the way I visioned my sound, more me.

[@mico5003]

There is no bad sign without dissonance and harmony! Great performance from start to end! You grave for a full version of the concert!

[@twitcheyspleen]

love the lead style, talking with the guitar without a deluge of notes, and lots of space. The horn section are excellent

[@guyking1]

Thank you very much!

[@JayTheLane]

Oh man that bending at the start!! The smile on the keyboard players face says it all ☺️ Norm's Rare Guitars brought me here as well.

[@michaeltaylor8734]

Guy, I knew Albert for a few years before his death. My first gig as a guitarist was with two of his band members outside Crawfordsville Arkansas at Sumpter's Grocery country store where Albert frequently stopped for BBQ/pool hall/gambling. I knew Albert's style to be so unique and rarely duplicated to the tee. I have known only one other that was worthy to be named King and Albert adopted him as his grandson, so Manuel Gales became the late great Little Jimmy King from Memphis TN. Through my friendship with Jimmy and his twin brother Daniel, Jimmy introduced me as the newest member of his band while setting in on one of his regular nights at BB Kings club in Memphis TN. I played back up guitar for Jimmy for 8 years up until his death. I've heard many guitarist's since and NO ONE has played in true form or feeling to Albert's style until I saw this video. You definitely have it, my hat goes off to you.Keep it simple and real and keep wearing the suit's..Albert and Jimmy both wore while playing the blues.Truly professional appearance. I don't know if King is you real name or not but I have cast my vote for you to carry the torch behind Albert and Little Jimmy King. Carry it well.

[@guyking1]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@SoloDallas]

Guy, just found out about you tonight - on the Les Paul Forum, thanks to a post made by someone there showcasing you at Norm's guitars. Bought album instantly. YOU are what we needed. Been a long time, but a *true* guitar hero and *authentic* blues player was what this country needed. Phil Olivieri - SoloDallas, San Diego (I now need to see you live).

[@guyking1]

SoloDallas Thank you very much!

[@SoloDallas]

No, thank you - we were dancing to your music 30 minutes ago in the car - my entire family. It was Joe Bonamassa also pointing us to you - so you know there's another brother blues player into you. There's a bunch of us digging you - loving it. You take good care and I look forward to seeing you live when you come to SoCal. I'll be there. Take care, Fil

[@PrehistoricBeasts]

Sheeet, that was some of the tastiest Albert King style playing I've heard. Your precision and phrasing are brutal, tone, while not trebly as Albert's, is pure sweetness. Lookin' forward to hearing more from you. Thank you for an inspiration.
