Pokey Lafarge - Sadie Green (Live @ 2013 Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion)

[@tabbygail7]

Sad to think of all the fakes and posers who achieve fame and these guys go virtually unnoticed. No weak links in Pokey's band. World class talent, man. This group is hot.

They’re happy and that’s best

The best right here and we get it to keep. Imagine how much better live.

[@jameshitt3263]

Miss this version of the band tremendously. This might be their pinnacle for me. The arrangement is perfect, and the musicianship is off the charts, without ever being blustery.

[@timtwotone3561]

Absolutely! This is brilliant!

[@anthonybellamy265]

I saw them, with this version of the band, at Gorilla in Manchester, How they interacted with each other and the fun they had playing to the audience was contagious.

[@hazeltube8404]

Super tight band with fab musicians! Really miss this fantastic phase of Pokey and his crew!🤩

[@tomstiel7576]

Chloe's smile while TJ plays his horn is priceless,,,,Pokey really fuckrd up letting this band to leave him,,,,I miss the old Pokey,,,rest in peace

[@markmanning2921]

I noticed that smile too, i think she just has great love for anyone with musical talent equal to her own which is absolutely outstanding!

[@tomstiel7576]

@@markmanning2921 they behaved like brother and sister

[@lsingstock1646]

I drove through a snowstorm to see Pokey and his band, and only 4 or 5 of his band made it. It was a great show anyway. Got his autograph on that latest CD.😊

[@PW.6060]

This truly was the best iteration of Pokey's band. Outstanding.

[@Herve1955]

I agree

[@jameshitt3263]

Agreed. I don't connect with his newer stuff nearly as much as this.

[@Tonetwisters]

This young lady playing clarinet was just incredible in these songs.

[@wadeherron2057]

I've listened to this over a hundred times. What an amazing group. Bass player, harmonica, EVERYBODY in this band is passionate and perfect. Ear candy

[@randolphscott3361]

Me too

[@amydau]

Listening to this song made me a better person.

A top shelf band and band leader. Chloe sounds great on that licorice stick. She's the cherry on top in this piece.

[@dmeachy]

Licorice stick: I haven't heard that in a long time!

[@timothyhites7016]

I miss Chole

[@tullsongs]

This is the most talented group of musicians in the history of music !!

[@user-sk4bg6hr7p]

Fantastic and the clarinet lady is the cutest you will ever hear and see. She’s gorgeous.

There is something very special about musical groups where everyone in the group is really-really good at playing their instrument.

I love the way she puts her clarinet on her shoulder like a batter in the on-deck circle.

[@jonathanbush6197]

Yeh she knocked it out all right

[@kcameron819]

I could watch this all day, so talented!

[@randolphscott3361]

Every time I feel blue this really hits the spot. Always finish with a smile on my face. Excellent musicians loving what they do.

Just gorgeous. Thanks Josh and Allison. So much talent. ❤️🇦🇺

[@olddoggeleventy2718]

Pete Fountain and Benny Goodman are a smilin' down.

[@mustang6984]

Indeed they are! Maybe even playing along! :}

[@Hopeless_and_Forlorn]

Don't forget Fats Waller. I can just hear his little asides behind the swing.

[@TheTaoofEternalWar]

Last night I discovered this amazing little clarinet player, turns out she used to play with Pokey Lafarge. That makes sense.

[@mickeyreavis4123]

She also plays a pretty good sax.

[@timothyhites7016]

She’s adorable

[@elizabethmurphy4880]

They're all fantastic, love this song 😊

[@frankcorrenti5941]

That Gibson ain't wasted on that boy and Chloe's high clarinet just the touch to grease this bad up. Top flight.

[@mlfsup]

I've been fortunate to have seen Pokey twice in sunny Muncie Indiana. Outside concert. I love, love, love them and their music!! Oh, please contract Chloe again and come back to see us. We love you!!!!

[@wylenore]

What an awesome group. Just fine individuals. Happy to be alive at the same time. I wish them all a happy and comfortable life.

[@hughtierneytierney3585]

I was watching a movie the other evening and was surprised to see Pokey LaFarge in it! He was very good too.

[@elizabethmurphy4880]

His voice just melts with the music 👍👏

[@Rayhid1956]

Awesome tune! Nice to hear them play. Feel like I have traveled back in time to a long-gone era.

[@downtoearth5108]

I've been looking, now I've found the band to follow. And yes beautiful clarinet, seasoned guitarist, bass, harmonica. EXCELLENT.

[@johnniesoesbee7015]

Pokey, this is where I became a fan. I was in Bristol and saw you guys there. Haven't stopped listening. You are surrounded by great musicians

[@Oakheart]

Regret is not having seen this band live. Fantastic doesn't even describe the talent/chemistry here.

Am I the only one smitten with the clarinet player. Phew 😍

Chloe Fearanzo, a legend in her own right.

[@RobertPilla]

@@jamesprince9041 Thank for putting a name to the instrument. Videos like this always drive me nutz when they don't credit all the musicians by name. It literally takes 10 minutes to type in some credits.

[@jamesprince9041]

@@RobertPilla I must confess, I didn't know who she was either but came across her in a couple of other videos, my curiosity was piqued, I did a little digging and came up with a name. She's certainly a gem, and thanks for your kind words, be well.

I'd wail too if I were stuck in a clarinet.

[@Alex1946A]

If there's any better feel-good music than this, I've yet to hear it! Chloe looking and sounding absolutely hot, as usual.

[@laurielyon7740]

Wonderful ‘feel good’ music. Lots ‘o jump and great musicians. I play clarinet so Chloe is always a special treat for me. Kudos to all. Oh.........and my heart goes out to the tone deaf cementheads who provided a thumbs down. For your own safety.......come down off the ledge. On second thought...........maybe not.

[@BlessedMe11]

I could listen to this over and over, for hours on end! You All are so talented and a very tight band! Awesome, on top of incredible. Love Ya'll.

[@lagaman11]

I have just been BLOWN AWAY!!!

[@cedarriver]

I keep listening to this one for years now. Always wanted to play along. So I took some time and wrote down the chords and lyrics. See below if you wanna play along as well and have fun! Pokey plays the rhythm section in D tuning (2 half steps down) with Capo on 2 You can play it without capo in standard tuning as well He plays the chords very different here and there throughout the song so take everything below as a suggestion The C#7 is just a C7 one fret higher, D7 two frets, the F is played as a cowboy chord (x3321x) The G is played as a barree best as it allows you to play those muted hits better, some goes for the A7 Key to get the right vibe in this song is the left hand muting right after the hit C#7 x4342x D7 x5453x All the solo parts and the verse have the same pattern which goes like this F C#7 C7 F F C#7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F C7 F C#7 C7 F F A7 D7 G7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F D7 G7 C7 F [Verse lyrics] Sadie Green was the vamp of New Orleans And she had more sweeties than the Navy done had Marines Oh when she starts to shake her hips She'd say "Captain captain, go on and sink your ships now" If she starts to vamp oh gosh Mama burn my mackintosh Oh since my gal came to town Yeah she turned every little thing right upside down And she cried, oh boy, full of steam What she ain't got, she just don't need What a queen Sadie Green She was the vamp of New Orleans The vamp of New Orleans
