Shuggie Otis Live at Stern Grove Festival

[@Fubeman]

Sweet Thang, I found a live performance of Shuggie!! What a legend. Fun fact: When The Stones were looking to find their new guitarist after Mick Taylor was getting ready to leave the band. He turned them down and said he wanted to focus on his own music. The Man’s true to his music. No doubt.

[@RaymondSandoval]

True the bone artiste

[@halimruslan1282]

I listened to his music since 1970...and love his music......

[@moehammondmedia]

Ladies & Gentleman the great Mr. Shuggie Otis.

[@michaela8802]

I feel ashamed that I’m 56 years old and LOVED all the old funk and soul coming up through the 60’s and 70’s, including Brothers Johnson, but never heard of this incredible legend. What rock was I living under?

[@RaymondSandoval]

It's cool :). You'ze here now. :) Dig it.

[@RaymondSandoval]

@michaela8802 not alone my man he's one if thousands w h o were into the makin' and bakin' not the dough. There's a entire layer of musical strata the likes of him... Great music.

[@MarshallAmpMan]

i learned a lot of my riffs from Shuggie back in the early 70's I listened to the Al Kooper Super Sessions and wore the record out... truly a great player

[@claysnyder7300]

There are two super session album got out Cooper on both so got the vinyl still that and hooker and Heat

[@malooch]

Mannnnnn oh man I just came across this song on spotify and it blew me away and it’s just as good live. Yessssss

[@marcusmartin-human]

Clicking randomly around the uTube and found Shuggie!!!! OMG so amazing!!!!

[@digiworxdigitalmediaproduc5034]

A few years ago all you could find was the old Roy Buchanan gig with the Otis band.

[@ireneruthfox]

Seen him with his dad, back in the 70's. A great guitarist. Never got his dues.

[@Dad-Gad]

Only true music fans know who this talented man is , the rest of the sheep are blinkered .

[@timhoovermusicman]

Then I must be a fan... At least since the late 80s anyway.

[@mitchgawlik1175]

Shuggie has not made it easy for people to become acquainted with him and his excellent guitar capabilites. After "Kooper Session" was released I couldn't understand why he basically dropped from sight. I know he still recorded and worked with Johnny Otis but, for me, his recordings weren't really accessible. He seemed to be playing strictly for Shuggie, all others take it or leave it. That's fine for Shuggie but not necessarily so for those who loved the cuts he did with Al Kooper. Fortunately, that album is a true classic so I fall back on it often.

[@dzakisuda]

I listened to his album freedom flight by accident & accidently he introduced me to the blues. Txs mr. Otis.

[@martinhorne7891]

Had that album.

[@stephenwilliamson2643]

that is a great album

[@lorraineflynn2227]

He is amazing this sounds like the music of New Orleans. It looks like he never got the recognition that he deserved because here it is 2022 and I never heard of him. I heard strawberry letter the other day and that's how i found out about him. He is a genius.

[@TheBangerz0604]

Thrn Listen to sweet thang. It was playing randomnly on Spotify in my bar where i Work 2 months ago. FU****ING LEGEND

[@scottbivins4051]

Shuggie is a legend !

[@chasgorman1086]

[@claysnyder7300]

Like son like father saw the Johnny Otis show at UCSD back in the day Showbiz runs through their veins

[@larsbertilivarson5840]

Nice! Used to listen to him in the -70`s. Great player.

[@AndyKaknes]

Shuggie's brother Nick just tearing it up on drums as usual.

[@paulhabermacher516]

and Jon, another brother on percussion

[@AndyKaknes]

@@paulhabermacher516 Oh...cool. I never met Jon before. He wasn't at the Shuggie Otis show in Boston a couple of years back. Nick was there. I spoke with him after the show.

[@Greywolf3]

Shuggie is such a talented guitar player.

[@attilaramirez3147]

damn, he get the same voice than in his studio album after long years! , truly legend!🙌👐

[@robertm2000]

SO WONDERFUL to have Shuggie back!

[@ACOUSTIC_4LOVE]

His Vocals on this is as good as it gets. And the tone he pulls outta that SG is Bliss. In this age of Bona this and Bona shred that--Refreshing to hear some real tasty soulful blues reminiscent of 60s/70s

[@consuelo6849]

Shuggie lookin good, soundin nice

[@mesaeddie]

Saw him with his dad in SanDiego at Funky Quarters in 72 incredible then and now. Thanks Shuggie

[@johnschaefer2238]

Shuggie could bend those strings with the best of them here’s proof. Too bad so few seem to know of him or how good he is. Some only know him from Strawberry Letter 23 and most only think of The Brothers Johnson when it comes to that. Lastly if the song is Strawberry Letter 23 why is only Strawberry Letter 22 only mentioned in the lyrics. I’ll let you Shuggie Otis fans ponder that one😁!

[@平井史朗]

I thought he was going to play with the Rolling Stones when Mick Taylor left the Stones. Or just auditioning? I wish he did.

[@martins.7060]

Watching this video makes me go aht uh mi hed
