James Booker full live @ Maple Leaf Bar 1983

[@TheSaltyLibrarian]

Just got back from the Maple Leaf in the year 2024. An image of Mr. Booker hangs over the stage and the band playing a setlist full of boogie woogie New Orleans jazz gave him shout outs throughout the night. He may not have been as big a name as some while he was alive, but the mark he left on the places and people he touched dwarfs the legacy of many others. R.I.P.

[@RadRecordsNYC]

To whomever researched, resurrected and posted this landmark vid I commend you and thank you. As do the small planet of smart, aspiring New Orleans-styled pianists who spend years trying to play as well as Mr. James Booker. His records are priceless, and visuals of his performances are crazy-rare. This footage is priceless to NOLA players, and endlessly enjoyable to real music lovers. Most folks don't know 1) how revered James Booker is among Louisiana music aficionados, and 2) how RARE good visuals of his performance are. This recording, with all the close-ups of his hands, is a very valuable document. AND IT"S CRAZY FUN-GOOD. Tip o'the hat to the original KZbin post-er.

[@ultravenia]

I wish I could manage that right hand. Waaay outta my league though. I'll just stay with my Chopin.

[@accompongrecords5337]

Spending not years to learn to play a bit like Booker but decades!

[@kokadkokis]

I do agree

[@tylerbrandon460]

I think I might would chop off both my hands in exchange for one of his fingers.🤔

[@BlueLou974]

He do sing too. It's not just amazig piano. it's far more. Soul.

[@dustymason460]

I can't count the times that I saw James Booker play- sometimes magnificently and joyfully, with an abandon that held us all spell-bound- but also horribly, piteously, with all of his demons alight for all to see. I would not be the person I am today if it weren't for my fanatical pursuit, to witness his creative bravery shine true. God bless you, James. You are truly missed.

[@BlueLou974]

AS SOMEONE WHO WAS ON DRUGS MOST OF MY LIFE,I NOW HAVE A FULL SEVEN YEARS CLEAN(THANK YOU GOD,JESUS AND THE HOLY SPIRIT),I KNOW HOW DRUGS CAN AFFECT YOUR LIFE.SO EVEN THO JAMES COULDN'T KICK HIS HABIT,I STILL SALUTE YOU AND MAY GOD KEEP YOUR PIANO PLAYIN SOUL WITH HIM.STAY OFF THEM DRUGS KIDS AND YOUNG PEOPLE.

[@tomtippin7111]

In the 70's, the Maple Leaf had a laundromat attached. You could do your laundry, have a drink, and listen to James Booker. Multitasking is highly overrated except in that case.

[@carriehawks9415]

I was listening to him there in 1981 and 1982. We used to play chess in the window when he was playing on the stage. usually with a pitcher of beer.

Mr. James C. Booker will live 4ever ... i had the chance to see him twice in East-Berlin (yep, behind the IRON curtain ... 1976-1222 & 1977-1028 ... recorded & filmed for my iron curtain productions ... smile?) and he was just magic & überhaupt ... R.I.P. // gone but not forgotten !!!

[@angelsbum]

Why 10 thumbs down ? This is genius piano at its purest. I’m learning dr John and realise it will probably take a lifetime just to master one song, but to play like booker is like climbing Everest on the piano. And I realise the closer to perfection I become the further away it becomes.

[@tylerbrandon460]

Surely the thumbs down are from children not realizing what they are doing or perhaps mentally disabled people.

[@tylerbrandon460]

I would imagine for me it would be like climbing Mt Everest on piano with another piano on my back.

[@professorlonghorn3959]

Thank you so much, I devoted 3 years of my life moving to NOLA, finding a left hand like Fess had and some semblance of a soul. Brought it home to perform in Austin. Listened to everything Booker recorded but until I saw this video, deep down inside, I didn't believe he only had two hands. It took me awhile not to burn all of my keyboards and cancel all my gigs. Although I'll muddle on, I will never touch him nor will John Cleary or anyone else, but Booker is inspirational and the Hendrix of piano from my perspective.

[@sapphiresea7825]

+Professor Longhorn , LOVE your style! I hope to hear more from you. Now, one question about Booker's piano... To me, the strings seem to have a ring to them similar to what's often heard on a harpsichord. I was wondering if he has the strings a tiny bit tighter or looser to produce that sound - which to me is fuller than other piano music I've heard. I just don't have an ear educated enough to know what's going on... I agree with you - James Booker's playing sounds like he using more than two hands. It was great to read your observations on this video... Thanks to you for the comments and thanks to Ali Ben Saad for sharing it with all of us...

[@Direwolfe]

Professor Longhorn can't quite get witcha there Senator Langhorne... i saw more'n a dizen o' these and had a litlle bit of social time wid James. a giant with Demons, what is astonishing in him was sadly squandered by what was broken. i belive Cleary has touched it, and gotten further with his gifts, which are what neither he nor anyone has to match Booker's.

[@sealerdave]

I agree its all left hand when playing great boogie by the way on Hendrix check out Dick Dale he influenced Hendrix, who played left handed (Dale played the guitar right strung left handed !! ) Just a thought...Boogie stoll rules though !

[@garrghhh]

There's a lot more to music than raw technical skill - or even raw technical skill combined with ... "poetry". I'd simply say, "don't discount the audience". What is worthwhile to people (human beings) is what lives in our heads. This is not to suggest that everything is of equal merit (e.g., charity vs. fraud) or that we should be nihilists or anything like that. But, rather, that meaning, to human beings, COMES from human beings. There is no other reasonable metric that I'm aware of for human beings in a universe that is so much vaster, richer, different, etc. from human beings.* It's a gift to be able to inspire, entertain, have your work be enjoyed by an audience, etc. Each performer has a unique audience, an audience that may intersect with / overlap the audiences of many other performers, yet, will also have its own distinctiveness. Speaking from the perspective of a member of various audiences, I greatly appreciate all performers I listen to, sometimes I seek out "the cerebral" and "the flash", and at other times, I just want to hear something catchy and not too challenging to MY ear... so, it's important, IMO, and quite a gift that not everyone at the highest levels of performance is always veering into the realm of Schoenberg, Monk, Coltrane, etc. Just some thoughts and a thank you to all who make music that makes the world more livable to everyone! (of every type and description to suit any mood and time) * This applies, IMO, within spiritual and religious frameworks as well - for example, in frameworks in which God is all powerful / everything, then, God must speak through and be woven across all of our activities. Of course, this easily gets tricky, which is why there are entire schools related to theology, philosophy, etc. But, I'll leave it at that for this comment - suggesting the perspective / "mode" I'm writing from / in without diving any further into details.

[@chrislafra4945]

James Booker +scotch+smoke 😎

[@accompongrecords5337]

First time I heard of James Booker was around 25 years ago when I asked dear boogie men Axel Zwingenberger and Vince Weber who they learned from. Axel and Vince both told me of Sunnyland Slim, Otis Spann, and "well, he was that very unique one, Piano Prince" James Booker. Booker is being revered by a growing number of blues piano enthusiasts.

[@aLigato84]

[@spassgamer]

Vince Weber is my Boogie Woogie Champ! He learned from the right ones. Unfortunately his health is not the best anymore...

[@RogerSteinbrinkh2oBrother]

I was present for Sunnyland Slims 80th birthday at a joint across the street from B.L.U.E.S. on Halsted St. I forget the name. He had a regular mid-week gig there, and I used to go there every week. After a while we became friendly. On his birthday he was alone. In the audience were six Swedish girls who were knocked out by Sunnyland. I bought them all copies of his L.p. that he was selling off the stage. He kindly autographed them all. It turned out to be a Happy Birthday for all involved. Thanks, Sunnyland. You put smiles on all our faces, and gave us all a great story to be shared down the years.

[@worshiperchild]

2 days ago I was for a concert in Maple Leaf bar for the first time and one day later a very talented pianist told me that James Booker had a big influence to his playing. I never heard of him before. And now I find this video about him in exactly this bar...thanks!

[@stevearle]

Man that is the best sounding upright piano I've ever heard! talk about orchestral... and James Booker always swung HARD too, no matter what he was playing. Great great post.

[@MuammarHamed]

Every time I listen to James Booker play it drops my jaw I can hear a little bit of James Booker in pretty much everybody from New Orleans and what's funny is they might not even know where they got it from!

[@gomesgmg1]

The only way to “learn “ to play like this is to feel the blues. JB lived the blues ... few know the entire story... time in Angola prison, drug addiction, gay black man in racist south. God bless his soul...he payed his dues many times over

[@davidmccall4776]

They say you have to have lived the blues to play'em, so no wonder Booker was so great! He had certainly experienced more than his share of heartaches and misery. The addictions, incarcerations, and taboo lifestyle was more than enough to kill any man, but his love for music likely kept him going longer than most of us could have. We're very blessed to have these films, recordings etc to insure that his musical legacy will never die. May God rest his tortured soul. 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹⚜

Magnificent. Joe Boyd, producer told me a story. In a late seventies there was a recording somewhere in L.A., and we made a deal with Dr. John to play piano. He brought up a guy and said: "Hi, this guy will play piano, and I ll play Hammond." We said :"John, that's was not a deal." The guy started to play and after three minutes we understand John. He said: "This is James Booker." Thank you very much for this video.

[@raphaellavelasquez8144]

I started listening to Booker after reading Dr. John's autobiography.

[@frooglmoogl8851]

Wow! Amazing! I can hear Jelly Roll Morton's "Spanish tinge" in there, and some "Fess" too. Not to mention James Booker's genius.

[@calgnostic1]

Thank you. Wish I could have seen Booker in person. I was 31 in 1983. A great musician !

[@tonycorley569]

What a riddle. His contemporaries or influenced like Toussaint, Dr John, Mac speak about him as a mirage they can’t understand. He brought Chopin to the Third Coast. He kept the funk but hid it with flourish.i love Harry Connicks description of learning from Booker. He is reverential amongst NewOrleans pianists. Who in the fuck plays the 88 keys like that ends up Angola? Grateful Dead=one night.we do work. That guy lived in another dimension.

[@pab1941]

Wish I had seen this guy before leaving Nola. He was fantastic!!!!

[@ctefft1]

I watch/listen to this at least three times a week.

[@jamesdaviddupre99]

Glad that Booker now gets more recognition. I saw him a couple of times at the Maple Leaf. Awesome. Other piano greats like Dr. John & Allen Toussaint called him the best. "Bayou Maharajah" is a great documentary about him. He should be in the R&R Hall of Fame.

A lot of Fats Domino's studio piano were recorded by Booker while Fats was on tour. Check out some of the Imperial recordings and those that came later. He also would play for Huey "Piano" Smith sometimes when the Clowns were touring clubs in the South.

[@MitchWoods88]

Wow! How come I never saw this vid before. It is amazing. Captures Booker like no where else! This is incredible vid of Booker. And you can see his hands! Great piano lesson! I never could play Booker style, but this may help. I was incredibly lucky when I first came to N.O. In ‘81 I opened for him at the Mapleleaf. I didn’t even know who he was. But I sat in week before, and John Parsons the owner asked me to come in on Sunday and open for “Booker”. Sure I said. I had a good solo set, then he came on....and wow . He blew my mind!

[@pedroa.cantero9449]

Al piano pocos le igualaron. Divino, sus dedos surcaban el teclado al modo de destellos provenientes de no sé que energía sideral. Más que humano, se deslizaba sobre la melodía en evoluciones vivaces como solo algunas aves logran voltear. Su toque evoca el juego de vencejos que hacen de su vuelo un goce irresistible en el que se entregan como si en ello les fuera la misma vida. Él también, se entregó al son hasta caer exhausto y como ángel caído se nos fue, solo y maltrecho. Gracias Alí por ofrecernos esta joya.

[@bflat4378]

Don't you just love the way he just come up with one hell of a solo and keep smiling at the audience with a face that says "I know, right ?"

[@tylerbrandon460]

Amazing. It's like he is saying "are you hearing what I'm hearing?""Damn good stuff huh?"

[@1blastman]

Booker had a way of nonchalantly knocking out incredible riffs while making an "eye" at some guy in the audience. Also check out the Jerry Garcia Band playing with Booker. Booker rarely played with another band; they would have to rise up and play with him.
