Jose Feliciano & Bing Crosby - Mama Don't Allow

Jose Feliciano sings Mama Don't Allow with Bing Crosby in 1968

[@flojogrande]

Feliciano, is one of the most underated musicians, he deserves much more in accolades and recognition then when Christmas rolls around. He had so many songs and classic pieces that he remade in his special way. Anybody that has ever tuned a guitar knows how hard it is what he's doing on the fly...untunning a string for effect and bringing it back up to snuff. It's just amazing! His ear is so highly tuned it more than makes up for his absense of sight. A true ambassador of music.

"You get that thing walking and talking" Great comment from Bing!

[@Top100Guitarist]

The most incredible guitarist of this world.. or perhaps.. Guitarist Jose comes from another planet.....

Que belleza José Feliciano! Sin duda eres un genio. Tu nombre Feliciano viene de "Feliz" y haces feliz a muchos, Dios te bendiga siempre...

[@kevindavis296]

Bing Cosby is hiarlous. This verison of Mama don't allow no music around here is pretty good. Jose is a great singer.

[@VanessaDaiana23]

Dos genios. Feliciano reinventa la forma de tocar la guitarra a cada instante. Increíble. Además toca muchos otros instrumentos diversos.

I remember seeing this on TV. What a virtuoso!

[@83yomomma]

Dr Joey what year was this broadcast and what show was it?

[@TheRealDrJoey]

I'd be guessing, but I'd say maybe 1968.

[@83yomomma]

Dr Joey wow! Amazing. I imagine things were so different then.

[@TheRealDrJoey]

The more things change, the more they remain the same. I was 18 in 68.

[@elpistacho1]

WOw. You know a lot of FEliciano. I have been following his work since 2006 heard hundreds of his songs and I was finally able to go to one of his concerts in San Diego last Year, and yet I did not knew about these Purple, and DIsco flam songs. I like also when he plays Mama Don't Allow and Earls Breakdown with Johnny Cash. Take a look

[@fredkoning]

Great!

[@mayonaden]

woah, my brain totally melted at 2:32. anyway, awesome guitarist! amazing technique. oh, and that bing crosby aint to bad either :)

[@rubenbeta]

the best...

[@lovemesomcumberbunny]

Saw this on a Special about Crosby and had to see if anyone had posted it on the 'tube. You can really see the fact that Crosby was taken with Feliciano's talent. Loved Crosby calling Jose's talent "brilliant" at the end. (Though I cheer Crosby 'cause he could really improvise. Guess all those years with Hope paid off... lol.) Thanks for posting. Cheers!

[@Thevolumex]

.and you must go to see here how Jose play blues in The thrill is gone, how play classical in Malaguena, how Jose play jazz in Affirmation, how He play Pop fingerstyle in Billie Jean, how Jose plays latinbolero in La Carcel de Sing Sing,flamenco in DiscoFlam,hard rock in PurpleHaze, how play SpanishOpera in Aranjuez,How He plays folk in Flight of the Bumble Bee and much more, Hard to say who is The Best, sure he is the most incredible and SURE no one of yours has this guitar-range virtuosity ;-)

[@guppycup]

grossartig. dachte immer, jj sei der grösste...

[@elpistacho1]

By the way, one of my favorites is The Gypsy

[@AngelCifuEngasaoM]

D: WTF.?! Jose feliciano... is the Guitar God.!

[@choaterace]

@ramonicux He makes us see better !

[@venomtang]

is that guy blind?

[@joshuhigashikata9201]

I don't know but they're some dope glasses

[@plinkfloyd]

Living proof that you don't have to read music to be a GREAT musician!

[@RichYan33]

And what do I get on TV now? Judy Bobbysoxer and Clete Pumpkin trying to be the next winner of American Idol that no one will give two shits about a year from now.

[@neoconderson5491]

I like the Austin Lounge Lizards' version best: Momma don't allow no 'bove-ground nuclear testin' 'round here Momma don't allow no 'bove-ground nuclear testin' 'round here Well WE don't care what Momma don't allow!

[@44eelz]

1 dislike from "Mama"

[@jessupar]

well heres the problem with that list. Robert Johnson mostly played slide guitar, which in itself may as well be another instrument. BB played electric 95% of the time, and Andy Mckee plays well.. whatever the hell you call that slapping stuff. personally, i dont like it, but i dont know what people calling. "Tapping" perhaps.

[@assfuckedbyelephant]

Sounds a little too harsh for Bing, looks as if he's having trouble transitioning.
