Julian Lage & Chris Eldridge "Mean Mother Blues"

[@KevinH8782]

Julian Lage is one of the few guitarists I know that can play so much lead over the vocals but never over plays and always compliments the music.

[@USNAVDC]

+Kevin Henderson both of these guys are so great on their own, but together; it's really something special! I can't watch and hear this without smiling. What makes it especially great, they're having as much fun playing as I am watching and hearing! Just awesome!

[@matthewwelch6855]

Well said. No matter how technical Julian gets, it's always in service of the tune.

[@patrickohaodha8743]

3:11 Critter smiles like "holy shit we're so good at this"

[@USNAVDC]

Yep....They both know they set this thing on fire. This video should have a million views! Damn they're great!

[@guitarreilly]

every solo julian plays is so well thought out and structured its like he already wrote it before hand but you know its just his genius mind at work

[@calliegibson5726]

Pretty sure I watch this video every day. Critter singing this song makes me happy all over!! Amazing picking by both!

[@garycoen6943]

+Callie Partee I too watch this video for a pick-me-up when the world is heavy or dark.

[@slash93jack]

Literally think I've watched every video on youtube with Julian in, just can't get enough of this guy!

[@USNAVDC]

They know they're playing the hell out of this song....they get pretty excited about tearing it up! How much fun it is just to watch them play! I agree with the earlier comment....the thumbs up "like" button is too damn small!

[@inky960]

Had no idea Eldridge could sing so great! More!!!

[@USNAVDC]

Every time I watch this, I smile just like that do! I know they're having a blast tearing this song up!

[@nogoogleplus]

Just awesome guys.....Chris are you Ben:s son.....if so I remember you as a kid......Ben and I have been friends since the early 70's, I worked in broadcasting and was friends with the whole Seldom Scene gang.....Red Fox to the Birchmere.....

[@USNAVDC]

+TomsRoadVideo His father is noted banjoist Ben Eldridge of the Seldom Scene.

[@EdmiJazz]

Amazing..

[@colinrieser2126]

2:23 WHAT

[@impolitikful]

awesome

[@abelltube]

Do you hear the tone that JL gets out of the guitar? Incredible. CE isn't any slouch, either. Love the counterpoint bit.

[@robertjackson9628]

maybe some of you know of the connections here...Chris is the son of seldom scene's Ben Eldridge. This song was a BG hit for Washington DC's Seldom Scene way back. Think it's on one of their albums from the 1970's. Bob Jackson

[@yiannistsantilis6458]

Amazing! But how the listen they're guitars on the stage with out piezo? Especially when they solo.

[@andychongks]

HOLYSHITT

[@re4manonline]

Solid pickin'!

[@mandohat]

Ok. what's it like to take the next solo after Julian? Lol. Good Job, Critter.

[@greekflatpicker]

Great pickers!

[@AngelMartinez-qs3cf]

Can I get the tabs for this? Thank you for posting this...

[@RobertMorrisKnowsStuff]

holy smokes that was fantastic!.. and there is 1 Thumb down?.. must have been a drummer...lol...(jk)..

[@plugandjive]

damn,no description available..........

[@carolinewright4u]

SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so, so fine.

[@stevenbeechey]

Julian was fucking buuuuuuurning.

[@rcjcrewser]

Sweet Jesus!!! I never heard of Julian Lage before I saw this, but I hope he keeps picking with bluegrassers and plays less slow jazz.... Awesome stuff!!!

[@hiroprotagonitis]

Josh Crews he does the fast jazz stuff plenty good too, plus avant garde, modern classical, and just about everything in between! Honestly the only think I haven't heard him slay is funk/r&b/disco and psychedelic music but wouldn't put it past him to kill those genres once he gets the chance!

[@jamesdaniels2094]

let us all forgive josh crews, but only this once...

[@MrAndoandoandoando]

I guess ~290 other people have watched this, cuz the other 10,000 views have to be me

[@crieverytim]

i love that if he wrote this song, people would be outraged, but since its a cover of something from times past, it gets a pass

[@robertshelton2135]

Lord forgive Josh Crews for he knows not what he says
