2 best Norman’s Guests, 2 Kings of Modern blues, all you’re missing is kingfish

[@darianoechslermgp]

That guy is too heavy for these bar stools lol

[@ayushmanbhalla8737]

Kingfish has done nothing new !

[@spaceantelope1]

Yes Kingfish, And Joe, and Eric, and Chris, and that young man from South Carolina who’s name escapes me. Anybody? Stay Blue y’all, shouldn’t be too difficult these days. Lol! Wooo!!!

@@ayushmanbhalla8737 The Blues is eternal ya ol hotdog you!!😂 Wooo!!!

[@isaaceberly3105]

@@ayushmanbhalla8737 blues players take what is old, and bring it to life by making it feel new. It’s not about doing anything new it’s about finding your voice while paying respect to those who came before you. King Fish is a walking breathing piece of history, thank god he keeps the torch shining high and bright

[@jomamma1750]

Saw Kirk Fletcher's name, stopped what I was doing and turned on the video! Great Jam, thanks!

[@mattrogers1946]

Kirk is a serious blues guy! Love his playing.

[@yayo2211]

Whenever I see them, I’m clicking immediately. I’ve never seen someone so happy to play guitar like Kirk. Always a smile. Thank you Norm..

[@rylieriley]

Kirk Fletcher is a perfect example of tone coming from the hands. And what a tone it is!

Joe, Josh and Kirk are the three best guitarist of modern blues. What a joy it is to hear and watch them play! Norm needs to get all three in the same video.

Was ok, Teles sounded a bit thin for me

[@vintagepipesnightmares]

Two guys that play free of those SRV influences that you see infecting every damn player today. It is a joy!

[@dan.chouss]

Mate what’s wrong with SRV influences ?:)

[@bigben3089]

Josh Smith literally did SRV covers for years in his early days and said he was his biggest influence as a kid.

[@vintagepipesnightmares]

@@bigben3089 yup. Mine was Mickey Mouse. Thank god I didn’t stayed at that level! I am joking of course but I hope you get my point 👍

[@daviddesmond2143]

In 1966 I bought a similar 50's Fender Esquire with a brown cardboard case for $35 when I was 15 years old and paid for it by delivering newspapers. It was that transparent blonde, white pickguard and maple neck. I played it for a year or so. I was walking home by the local hardware store and got me a can of blue spray paint. Yes, I painted the body blue and many years later realized that I will be going to Hell because of this.

[@miaoupha2370]

At least you didn't sell it. You didn't sell it right ?

[@msa614]

In 1965 I bought a 50's Esquire ( looked just like the one Josh is playing) with a 5 watt Princeton amp and tweed case for $125....Joe Bonamassa probably has now

[@codyburgess7034]

Josh is my fav player right now

[@barrymckinley5330]

Kirk sounds like what Robert Cray would sound like if he played a telecaster. Just smooth stinging lines. Awesome

[@TheColorofLight]

Hey Norm you should record that song for the openning and closing for every youtube episode. Also Norm, you should put together a yearly Blues/Jazz Summer Jam with all this talent you ben giving us for free. I'm sure you could work out something with a local venue. I saw Josh discussing funk rhythm on the "All Guitar Network," killer, can't get enough. Saw Kirk play some stuff on another channel and he kills it also.

[@Neil-Aspinall]

Norm's got a lot of 'Buddies'
