That is the closest I will ever get to seeing Robert Johnson live in concert. So good!

[@johnf.rivera8046]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@Gykolove]

The guy is great, so authentic sounding!! 👍🏽👍🏻🕊️🎸

[@nickysantoro9194]

Love it

[@adamchurvis1]

I have Robert Johnson's entire catalog on cassette tapes. Yeah, I said it: CASSETTE TAPES! That's right, I'm an old guy. When my middle son was an infant with a painful hernia waiting in the hospital for his operation, I got him to sleep singing Robert Johnson's Love In Vain while rocking him back and forth gently. He grew up fascinated by trains.

[@demolitionwilliams7419]

This is incredible

[@Brother_Dre1900]

This is the best Robert Johnson feel I've heard from bluesman not named, Robert Johnson.

[@violayla]

Agree

[@carlbruno5181]

Real good! In the true blues tradition.

[@violayla]

Incredible hypnotic groove in each song. Totally captivating!

[@kevinchristie1246]

Keeping the blues alive, well done. Clapton struggled to play Robert Johnson, seriously, well done!

[@Thistrainundertherain]

legendary covers!!!Clapton struggled all his life to get closer to Robert Johnson way but he did not succed,you did!!!!

[@uncommonsensewithpastormar2913]

A lot of old blues songs have throw away, generic lyrics, but not Robert Johnson’s. His lyrics are pure poetry.

[@kevinchristie1246]

Thanks

[@kenshort5109]

Sublime half hour of the delta blues.. it doesn’t get any better than this. 👌

[@geraldbrown2875]

Edward Phillips brings the Delta Blues to your door! 🎸🔥👹🔥👺🎸

[@joeskinwalker7628]

Sounds awesome. I can listen to this over and over and over again. Beautiful played. I feel the blues all the way deep in my soul. Yeah, keep up the great awesome performance. Thank you. 😊

[@superhepu]

Agree 100% . Alive blues.

[@uncleh5460]

Sweet It never gets old , man. Love the outdoors sets

[@user-th3ll8rl7i]

I discovered Robert Johnson in college doing a research paper on the Blues. I was really stunned by the sounds; it was the hardest, deepest most authentic music I've ever heard. I understand why he was so influential. But on this particular song, it does have a cringe moment, "I'm gonna beat my woman, till I get satisfied." I don't think I could sing that. I understand, its just a song, and a sentiment, not a proscription. I've never wanted to beat a woman; Pepper spray them, maybe o.k., but I've never done that. I couldn't bring myself to sing those lyrics in public.

[@Ds_Drums]

So good. I love listening to some down home gutbucket blues and you know how to capture it. You are the real deal and I glad I found your channel. Thanks.

[@luckylion2657]

awesome

[@nicedog1]

This sounds just like one of those old recordings. Fantastic!

[@sapelesteve]

That was a fantastic set Edward! Listening to all of those RJ tunes, it's amazing how many famous bands have done versions of so many of them! 👍👍🎸🎸👏👏🎤🎤

[@ot_chad7580]

I am a great admirer of this unique style of playing. My compliments - this performer is very accomplished in this. Love.

[@sidwhitten7126]

Best version of this song that I've ever heard.

[@bechetjohnl9215]

Mr. Phillips, you're awesome, thanks so much for the entertainment.

[@thedave5748]

Hey Mr. Phillips. I know it aint news - but you are one bad mother hush your mouth on both singing and playing. Good God almighty Im so glad theres guys like you still playing like the music just came out of the oven and isnt 70 years old. You take some of those old rattle trap blues songs and make them into something fresh without missing a beat. Hats off to you - (and Roy Harper - if you do that one...)

[@Beachbumartist]

Mna that is amazing playing . Robert Johnson is the greatest. Thanks so much

Eres de lo mejor mi cuate, Gran aprendiz, maestro y genio del blues tú. Me gusta tu estilo y como respetas el trabajo de los grandes de blues como Robert Johnson. Soy mexicano, vivo en Chile Pero amo el blues con toda el alma. Saludos y gracias por tus videos!!!! ❤❤❤

[@Radix91]

You nailed the energy. And the guitar is just a different kick to it.

[@pawemazurkiewicz2720]

I love and admire this style, what a talent!

[@delveguy]

Jamma Bamma Edward! Keep on rockin'! The one man "Blues Magoo's"!! :)

[@jyegreen387]

More, more. I love all your stuff, man. Your skill and knowledge of these old legends just blows my mind. Your vids are the best thing on KZbin. You put my blues on hold when I watch you.

[@originalwildone3790]

I love this! Thanks

[@mojessedax9089]

Beautiful. I knew the 'me and the devil' version that Gill Scott Heron did which was a little surreal, great though. This is really good, great playing and great voice my friend! a natural. Is that a Martin 000-28? or a D-28 on 'me and the devil'? I can't tell. 👍👍👍

[@awesomeisasawesomedoesyo182]

Thank you Edward! You sir are the real deal.

[@frideraik]

complimenti una delle riproduzioni piu fedeli!!!!! complimenti

[@albradley6512]

Fascinated by the parlour guitar with the stars etc on every fret. Ed introduces it as 20th century. What is it? Does it have a story?

[@HumbleDisciples]

Man your a bad man, I've known this for quite some time. Couple years, but new eyes listening this mornin... Absolutely brilliant, checking not some but all boxes sir. Tip of my best hat. Ty
