The world could really use some good old Bruce wit and wisdom now . We miss you Col 🙏

[@56conn6h]

The Colonel was a living embodiment of embracing who he truly was, and not giving a crap about what others THOUGHT he should be. We can all learn from that. God bless him

[@finklesteinkid537]

RIP Bruce. Thanks for the legacy you left on this world and the so many people who loved you.

[@dianesabin3565]

So many....

[@jmarts715]

A true pioneer that laid the foundation for what I know & love about music now. So underrated & so truly missed. May you rest well & we will meet again some day….. I know it

[@alanwaltman7062]

From the mouth of Billy Bob Thornton "Hampton was the eighth wonder of the world."

[@georgesnow1844]

Col. Bruce is one of those people you do not realize how important they affected everyone and had as much an impact on so many other musicians & artists you know personally or grew up playing with, until they are gone and hear all the kind statements.

[@markmarsh27]

The trombone Guy played it like it was a fucking trumpet. ... AMAZING.

[@blueheron5232]

Great phrasing and pitch control. He's SINGING with that thing!

[@82lube]

Truly BADASS

[@nickhayes1626]

RIP Bruce, I only recently discovered you. Thanks for the legacy that I will get to listen to moving forward.

[@bennolyon]

RIP Colonel

[@deadmule2948]

A well deserved exit. Thank you for all you did, known and unknown, to keep real music alive and out of the jaws of the corporate machine - R.I.P. Col.

[@frankstared]

Great work, folks. That is some soul right there, peeps!

[@AlreadyFree612]

Thank you, Colonel! ✌️❤️

[@impalaman9707]

How can you not be in a good mood when you hear a song called "I'm So Glad"? Happiest song ever, I say!

[@RustyShackleford42095]

Col Bruce was a man who needed no introduction, his body of work is unrivaled. We miss you Col Bruce Hampton

[@whythissongworks]

This song always cheers me.

[@leedee4968]

This is definitely one of his best and the finest playing and I have experienced it several times😮

[@lumaz71]

so long, Bruce...

[@fireman746]

Love how he shreds that SG so gracefully!

[@cillardcargoth7965]

One of the few videos I keep coming back to over and over. Amazed there are so few views of it actually, could listen to this on loop

[@tmaddrummer]

May The Peace of Our Lord Be With You Always....

[@spaztech]

I'm so glad to have met this unique man and to have had the fortune to be there for his final act. Bruce, you will be missed.

[@tomwright4984]

Same brother. Hung out with him a few times after shows. Such a beautiful spirit and glad I was there at the Fox. Sail on Bruce

[@lesvitraux]

Put this rendition on single-repeat!! RIP

[@TheCustomComicShop]

Listening to this sweet tune at this very moment! Soooo relatable on this historic occasion✌💚💚💚💚

[@MrTjt5000]

We're so glad for The Colonel. ✌️

[@colbruce]

I'm So Glad this is on youtube. Thanks for posting!

[@iceWaterProductions1]

What tone, feel, and soul.

[@tiredcaballero]

My deepest gratitude for the Col.

[@kevinkane6328]

I’m so glad to have had a friend like Bruce. Many years of laughter and true joy among myself, my brother Dan and my father Jack with “ Tommy” as we adopted him into the Kane family. He gave so much of himself to me and others. God almighty, I miss him. Storme

[@lalalala3267]

Pretty sure I'm at least 200 of the 32k views of this.... Perfection. Rest easy Col. See ya around.

[@sdean4816]

I know this is an old post but I’ve watched this video many many times myself. It’s a great performance.

[@traceyharland7346]

The Love Light will always be turned on now!! RIP Colonel Bruce. THe Heaven Band awaits your talents!!

[@jean-michelpascal7962]

Le Trombone est extraordinaire !!!!

[@tommygo8]

Godspeed Bruce. I enjoyed our time and conversations together. Dot, Dot, Dot...

[@spaztech]

...you know, kinda off center, then I drop down and then I go: "Leavin' his soul! And partin' the waters of the medulla oblongata of - -brrrrrr! - -mankind!"

[@springcreekmusicfestival856]

Cant believe it's been two years tonight......Total respect.

[@Artress357]

For real man. He was cool dude who helped a lot of people out. Two years gone, hard to believe.

[@johnny1965]

Whenever i'm searchin for happy feelins and motivation I play this here song,nuthin like it out there,thanks Colonel Bruce,yes i'm glad!!!

[@KMGDA49]

Hey, Bruce, thanks for selling that oil-burner van for me around 1974, you saved my financial world. Hope to see you soon, Stephen from Angier Springs Road.

[@ronaldlogan7983]

Colonel is the definition of the Atlanta music scene

[@RobinMOrosz]

This song is 1 of my all time favorite songs!

[@ryancole90]

I love this ... the beginning sounds like Sympathy for the Devil on the film One Plus One before the Stones rearranged the song as a samba.

[@davidwilliams3069]

What a performance all around. Shocked to find this guy only to learn he's passed on. :-) I love the way the band work around a fine song. Can anyone identify the other musicians at this fine gig ??

[@iceWaterProductions1]

RIP Col. Bruce this world is a lesser place without you.

[@TheUrbanmeister]

This is something else, simply outstanding. Kudos to all. As others have said, RIP Colonel, you left a legacy of smiles and appreciation behind you.

[@beachidiot]

I'm so glad too. I wish you guys would cut this number. Sounds like a bonified chart topper to me. I've listened to it 5 times today.

[@mondo851]

One among countless great jams from this musician. Outstanding. Won't see or hear this again, sadly. The Colonel is retired.

[@SKOJCV]

Hell the standup bassist, the trombonist, the young guitar player and of course the Colonel himself- got me dancin

[@sumnerwaite6390]

Had to come here after the Panic cover tonight in St. Augustine. I was there for your final show Bruce and we all miss you. Man o man.....

[@candygreenway1623]

I saw Bruce for the first time at the 12th Gate in Atlanta, GA many many years ago. Halifax was taped live there during one of my visits. He was an amazing man. Thank you, Bruce, for your talent, generosity, creativity and joy for life!

[@bluecollar825]

This is so good!!! Makes you wanna bounce around the room...✌

[@lindatheobald7789]

beautiful Colonel Bruce , such a teacher.........this is the best.......!

[@richardyork2788]

just wow!

[@lurkmode]

I'm so glad i got to meet Col. Bruce! Truly one of a kind and he will be truly missed.

[@jeffallen6754]

Damn great sounding band.

[@kcmule]

I'm so glad the Col. mentored Derek Trucks. I'm so glad to have seen the ARU the one chance I got.

[@dennisonwebb9558]

ARU was the real deal!

[@davidwilliams9087]

What a great version of a great song! I came to Col. Bruce via this song and asked where has this guy been that we've not heard of him in the UK!. This as a great tribute to a great musical legend in the Atlanta area. Can anyone identify these guys playing with him here? Nice vocal style on the other vocalist too

[@adampiecoro9630]

The other vocalist is Tyler Neal! He plays every Wednesday night at the Northside Tavern in Atlanta, definitely worth checking out 👍🏼

[@jeffallen6754]

Strong players here.

[@sdean4816]

Really nice video. Thanks for posting !

“The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.”

[@jakedavis4226]

yep......

[@lbowsk]

I'm so glad that the dots are where he said they were. RIP Col.

[@heytombanjo6195]

Fuck Yeah. Doyle couldn’t comprehend greatness.

[@GratefulZen]

Was in the front row at the 12th Gate in Atlanta in the ancient Hippie days watching The Hampton Grease Band in a seriously altered state. Bruce freaked the hell out of me messing with my head rocking the mic stand back and forth at me as the band played on. Good times!

[@susanwhiteahl84]

Thanks for the music and the memories. May you be at peace in Light and Love.

[@BrentSmith0420]

THANK YOU Col. Bruce Ima miss you ol man

[@etroutski]

I'm so glad that I knew of Colonel Bruce...........

[@tonyforte1528]

Glad we got to know you! Travel on brother.....

[@themicdfiles1865]

Bruce was an extraterrestrial sent here to do what he had to do and then he went home in the exact fashion he said he would. How fortunate we are to have had him be a part of our journey.

[@frenchchefkyle]

Sad day for music God gets another grate one. Thanks for the memories

[@JamHarmon]

thanks for all the music, Colonel.

[@froghare7516]

Oh my, I am so glad, I was told about this.

[@whythissongworks]

What is so weird is that I find out, sometimes during interviews, sometimes after I've done an article, that almost every single person I've written about has.a connection with CBH. I can't help but think, sometimes, that his spirit is still here with us.

[@zmanatl]

Typical Bruce! He gets in a zone! Love Ted also picking up the bass behind his head! I miss all those great shenanigans! Miss my good friend everyday!

[@ridgefarmer]

Never picked up the Sympathy For The Devil line in this song before - maybe I've been asleep. Great performance.

[@frenchchefkyle]

Bruce thanks for the memories and grate music.

[@iamatt]

He called me at like 2 in the morning on a weekday. He did the same thing to my brother years earlier.

[@LSommer]

Good Morning!

[@operationzenith6030]

Glorious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@carolsicard7533]

:-( Thanks for the music Colonel..

[@tvveedie]

Bruce Hampton forever!

[@kimmartin7024]

He was great

[@smug8567]

Yeah, I got a new tune in composition entitled "The Thrill." And it goes somethin' like this: "I stand on the hill, not for a thrill, but for the breath of a fresh kill. Never mind the man who contemplates doin' away with license plates. He stands alone, anyhow, bakin' the cookies of discontent by the heat of the laundromat vent. Leavin' his soul!" Then like in poetry I go dot-dot-dot, you know, kinda off center, then I drop down and then I go: "Leavin' his soul! And partin' the waters of the medulla oblongata of - -brrrrrr! - -mankind!" That was a damn good song, wasn't it ?

[@efrainrodarte6395]

See you don't wanna question a genius Vaughan
