"The Thrill is Gone" Christone "Kingfish" Ingram @ 2016 Winthrop Rhythm & Blues Festival 9301

[@the_other_dude]

He is one BAMF. A six-stringed wizard. The Notorious B.I.G. of Blues. Please sir, leave some poontang for the rest of us mere mortals.

[@jamesanderson6228]

El Duderino lite

[@wiebenijenhuis1825]

Big nigga

[@itsflyde]

Wiebe Nijenhuis large black man good at guitar

[@kennywright86]

This man is the shit he can bend them strings.

[@CanadianTopG]

hold up... this dude is only 16 years old? amazing.

[@WillowsWhimsy16]

My son just called me to tell me, "Mom, you have to check this kid out" so here I am. I am blown away, such raw talent. I hope he goes far!!! Props!

[@jamessmith-zk4co]

Oh may goodness! What an amazing musician! I hope he has a long prosperous career. As a black man I am encouraged to see that not all our young people have abandoned the traditional music birth from the children of Africa slaves. I would love to see more black youth pick up musical instruments and put down guns.

[@stk1975]

I hear BB King, Hendrix, Clapton, stevie ray van, Gary Moore and Peter Green in this kid.

[@marcusharrigan6879]

His chord and rhythm work is something some of the above never did to this level or at all.

[@cameroncarter2149]

Dont disrespect green like that

[@elis6299]

True!

[@swarterafa3383]

I just hear Leadblly.....that should cover all them followers.....no disrespect.....😔

[@carinamolina3994]

Che Guevara dude yesssss exactly

[@digitalsketchguy7844]

This guy was born in January 1999 and this video is 6 years old so he was maybe 17 years old. Hold my beer while I pick my jaw up from the floor.

[@Guitargasm1000]

That's what we guitar players call 'testifying'

[@fartknocker8363]

Fuckin' A

[@AnthonyGaff]

Upvote just for your name. Hahahaha.

[@hectormacias3495]

He told his story.

[@DSpeir-pi6tm]

OMGosh I've heard about kingfish but I've never seen or heard him play till today this man is amazing !!! I've been playing guitar for 43 years and have rarely seen a player this good so young, or even as old as I am .

[@jayjackson9014]

Dspeir I agree he's great but what about a young very young Jonny Lang? The guy was ripping the blues and singing with an old souls voice at 13.

[@DSpeir-pi6tm]

I'm not familiar with Jonny Lang, but being that good at 13 is pretty amazing :D I'll have to check him out .

[@jgFirebird96]

I'd ask why anyone would stomp on a fuzz box in the middle of the thrill is gone, but I'm too busy being shown EXACTLY why

[@cole9033]

Jacob Gafford haha amen to that man

This comment is of excellent quality.

[@pedroleonicarus4659]

2:07

[@carlmiller1986]

Jacob Gafford Agreed

[@iaial0]

Each and every time I'm blown out of my socks by that solo. "I'm free now" he sings. The blues left with the end of the solo

[@tomscribner5261]

And that's why he's called KINGFISH, ladies and gentlemen!

[@manolete340]

Gotta save this to copy his licks, they are so damn awesome.

[@CKVideoGames]

So used to hearing people play the blues behind the beat, interesting to hear him play so ahead/on top.

[@zacharycarter7631]

wow good comment actually

[@lorettawilliams5490]

This young man is "OUTSTANDING"

[@BlackMusicGenre]

Keep on playing Kingfish . You are a bad young man.

[@rushpittsburgh4]

He's a badddddd man

[@MrHammer102]

My God this young man is amazing. That bassman is a bad dude as well great chops!

[@claysimon]

just discovered this guy, truly awesome, he has so much soul and feeling.

[@HoustonDiamond]

Will thank the music casting for Luke Cage for this! OMFG... Christone is 17 in this video!!! :o What a talent!

[@eskimojoe6564]

Kingfish needs to go viral.If he came up with his own stuff he would be big.Much talent amd guitar skillz

[@ajchat8701]

take care of yourself (health) young man so we can hear your riffs 70+ years from now. What a jammer

[@TelecasterLPGTop]

There's just one thing in his way and it's glaringly obvious. His weight. He'll be dead before he reaches 25 if he doesn't lose all that weight. It's not so difficult when you're young but his morbid obesity will affect his life. Where were his mother and father when he was putting all that weight on ? They have failed him miserably, there tough love is hard to dispense but it must happen real soon.

[@richardharris6139]

Felix Burke- hahah he'll be dead before 25.. Who the hell are you to say that kind of bull shit. You're not God or even close to being a doctor, so my recommendation is to stfu and sit down.

[@ajchat8701]

...ummm not real sure what I said to set you off, but I do like the jams this guy is cranking out and it would be nice if he lived a long healthy life so we could hear more of it. You're right. I'm not a doctor or "god" by the way...being that I'm athiest, but don't see how that's pertinent to my original comment or the fact that I need to stfu and sit down.

[@richardharris6139]

Aj that was written to felix,

[@ajchat8701]

ooops...my bad, and this makes your comment contextually understandable now. My bad, and apologies!

[@jordanelkins9801]

Hendrix and King's love child... awesome!

[@Knight14649]

Hendrix and king couldn’t have a live child. Maybe adopted if they were , ya know...👨‍👨‍👦👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨

[@kenperry4452]

Wonderful!!!!!!!! I'm so glad he's around. Never heard of him before...

[@Blazingmadman98]

Fucking hell...I don't know what go say but this guys a fucking legend. Great vocals and a legend on that axe. Dude's gonna go far if this world has any justice to it.

[@riccaregio]

Men....if he is goood..... He feels it and you can tell. Few guitarist give me goosebumps, he is one of them. I am sure that if BB was alive would approve and congratulate.

[@lottiefoster7010]

Awesome God bless you I love you

[@brianmcdermott281]

Spectacular playing, I don’t understand why people are complaining “to much soloing” you’re there for a guitar show. It’s like going to see Jimi. You wouldn’t hear someone complain about jimi diving into a 4 minute solo

[@rogerrojas487]

hendrix lives inside of you my brother. I sold my strat cuz of bad asses like you. THE BEST OF THE BEST. I CAN'T EVEN BREATH. .

[@ryanboshell6124]

roger rojas I hope you sold it for something else! Don’t stop learning!

[@soldi3r21]

You shouldn't have mate! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqmYi6mfbbBkrM0 80% is in the fingers, 15% is in your head and the rest is just preference. The gear doesn't make the man!

[@muddahg2854]

I met him when he was 12!!! This kid was awesome even then! So proud of him👍🏻💚

[@544cachito]

This man is awesome!!!! I don't remember being this impressed by an artist of his generation!

[@TheDCGuitar13]

I love how kingfish keeps growing and doesent get complacent in his playing. His evolution as a player is awe inspiring. You don’t ever get to hear blues players playing frank gambale licks and then throwing Stevie Ray Vaughan bends just because he can! I dare someone to call him “just a pentatonic player”....Man that’s savage playing!

[@itzcosmic222]

This is what you see when a very talented artist pours his/hers soul out onto the stage

[@electrickflame353]

The drummer pounding with sticks of elegance,the keyboardist ripped ear drum with ticklish touches of ivory, the bassist walked the dog day and night and Christone shredded souls! They tore it up!

[@sullieking]

You are the "Kingfish" . Im a big fan. Shout out to the other band members too.

[@canopeaz]

Amazing -- dude was like 16 or 17 when this was made right? That's just amazing.

[@stephaniemunoz7836]

Best version of this song I ever heard.

[@johnlane35]

Great player, band and smooth singing style. Thank you so much Kingfish.

[@tammieeastman2167]

Delightful I can feel your music all the way through my soul and back to my heart again thank you for your beautiful music it's a pleasure to know you and to hear your music what a gift

[@GeorgeJansen]

the spirit of BB King lives on. ooh wee

[@dalibor0310]

Future of Blues! Have to love this! Kingfish you are the King!

[@rarerockk]

It's sick how good this is. What a great musician!

[@shanejones3747]

Holy shit! I hope he starts taking care of his health! Being a big boy is part of his charm and he pulls it off. I just want him to live past 50. What a man I’ll be looking out for him from now on. Seen a few clips but this is the first I’ve taken notice of!

[@Luvly2938]

Love your music and love you like son but please take care of your health. You are simply genius!!

[@robertherrerajr7615]

Wow you play well my friend. Be blessed. 💞👍🙏🔥🎸🔈🔉🔊🇺🇸👍👍

[@SKYENET-zy2cn]

Kingfish the new future of blues!!👌🏽

[@cadetaylor4602]

KEEPING IT REAL! Add Marcus King to that list 100% would recommend his stuff

[@franciscoauger5906]

Great 👍 potential!! He needs THE BAND to go higher!!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Empirism]

He's exceptional, I was so thrilled when I saw Gary Clark Jr and C-tone Ingram in Luke Cage series!! fantastic! Good serie got two of my favorites

[@iaial0]

I just realized that all the optical distortion made by the camera in the first solo is the best music video to his mind blowing performance

[@mothrasuperior5015]

Saw Kingfish for the first time on an episode of Luke Cage and fell in love with him instantly. The amount of emotion and energy he pours into his guitar is mesmerizing. And then he opens his mouth and I'm in a complete trance. Where can I find more Kingfish?

[@jreedblues65]

Kingfish is natural! I love watching him play that box!

[@kalbra]

jreedblues65 that means two things

[@jimhardley4605]

This BROTHER man all I can say is Jimi he's finally here thanks for the music BROTHER. We love you!

[@jeromejax8675]

Thanks for sharing. You have helped open my eyes up to guitar blues and rendesions of the classic "The Thrill is Gone". Kingfish is da man. Nice...

[@triggerfish6619]

this young m an man has a God given gift. keep playing brother! you are quite amazing and and have a the real feel for what you play. God bless you. Thanks man.

[@grembf158]

YOOOOOO I fuckin love what you doing! Keepin that blues alive! Come to MN and I'll be damn sure to be there. Blues is life for me

[@hilarygami3681]

Luke cage brought me here too. The kid is a genius .

[@jony8934]

SWEET MAN, rock and blues are living in his soul

[@dkuntz2155]

One kick-ass guitarist! That's all I need to say.

[@100AmazingFacts]

This kid made my hairs stand up. The beauty and powerful energy of music is of a much higher source.

[@rogerglenn2592]

Kingfish always looks like he's in another place when he plays....just out of this world. I'm just glad he let's us come along for the ride.

[@2cor5n7]

U did amazing on Luke Cage Kingfish

[@tankfu1]

Wow. I could listen to that jam for another 13 minutes. That was great!

[@paulkruger491]

Wow. I'm grinning 😊 ear 👂 to ear 👂.fantastic

[@johngoogle7810]

[@bigmartin]

Holy crap, BB King and Lucille right there. Goes right through you

[@gadaffitoohottie1231]

Love the bass and ofc Kingfish is the man 💪💪💪💪💪💪

[@7777Lace]

YOOOOOOO!!!! I LOVE that DOPE Vibrato!!!

[@cdgMu]

Idk but I can actually taste this sweet music in my mouth!

[@Hawkmoon9]

4:12 is one of my favorite parts

[@broadkiwimusic5000]

One thing. SO. BLOODY. SMOOTH.

[@wogand]

Found this video, after hearing it on Luke Cage S2-E4 - what a talent Kingfish is!

[@ssurfcity]

You have Kingfish, Jontavious Willis, Toronzo Cannon, Marquise Knox and several others that inspire confidence that the Blues is Alive & Well! Good Blues To Youse!!

[@tadias13]

A legend in the making.

[@khalilg6384]

The way he added a fetty wap song into his solo is absolutely amazing. This guy isn’t talked about enough!!

[@0rockerboi85]

What song is it?! I know it's Fetty but I can't place it

[@catherinesplane98]

fine wine guitarist, guitar sound. Yes sir!!!

[@yazidknopfler8640]

his playing is just min blowing but his voice is aweosme too :O

[@GeorgeJansen]

The Notorious BIG of Blues. OMG, he's incredible

[@tomscribner5261]

This is one of my favorite B B King tunes, who could not like this??? Must be insane, this man is straight up blues bad ass, I could listen to this guy day and night :-) :-) :-)

[@elis6299]

18 year old with the guitar skills of a true master.

[@MRSZ5440]

I like the way he puts his on take on songs.

[@nosif97401]

[@wizrdwoz5105]

One word. WOW

[@miguelsaucedo6603]

Just discovered this dude.... holy shit, cant wait to catch one of his shows.

[@KP11520]

This dude BRINGS it! Big hole since BB left. Something tells me he'll fill in and take it way further! Tore it up real good with Samantha Fish too! NICE! Welcome and he brings fresh energy. The old is forever new!

[@TheLizardskin]

I saw this guy playing this wonderful masterpiece at Harlem's Paradise, in a Luke Cage's episode. It was really nice. It was pretty good listening to The thrill is gone featured in a different mood. Cheers from Brazil.

[@gunturharahap4415]

this gonna be the best cover version thrill is gone ever

[@WZW1982]

His vibrato is so damn satisfying to listen to.

[@millersethe]

Watching this is so much more interesting than listening to what passes for rock these days. I love it.

[@escamunicha4276]

that came from BB King to Jimi Hendrix real quick

[@darrylking4185]

WELL THIS YOUNG GUY IS NOW THE NEW OWNER OF THIS SONG, R.I.P. BB THINGS OF YOURS ARE IN GOOD HANDS.

[@sarahparkes1547]

He is awesome a master in the making

[@omffffgggfffgggfff]

You know what.. I want to see him and Gary Clark Jr. Jam. That would be something.. :)

[@Regimeshifts]

[@gottadutch]

Pretty sure you can find a video now of both of them jamming together on KZbin... I guess dreams do come true! Haha

[@rushpittsburgh4]
