Topic: YouTube.com - Interesting Country Blues related video clips

Eleanor Ellis (who made this film and is a wonderful performer herself) played this at the Port Townsend workshop a few years ago. I believe it's available on DVD as well.

Still available on dvd. I received a copy as a present from a blues buddy a couple of years ago.

I don't think this documentary called: "SHINE ON: Richard Trice and the Bull City Blues" has been mentioned on the forum? Anyway here's the trailer:



Here's the link to the Groove Productions website:

Anyone know anything about this?

While we're at it, here's the Trice brothers doing "Let Her Go God Bless Her" (audio only):



I think I've heard other cb musicians do St James Infirmary in a major key as well.

Hi all,
Sometimes you have to hand it to YouTube.
All best,
Johnm

Lovely. It's from one of Giles Oakley's The Devil's Music BBC TV series which were broadcast on Sunday evenings beginning 14 November 1976 for four weeks.

Thanks John.
That's what you call time management!

[Johnm]

Well put, Phil.  What a tremendous singer, too.
All best,
Johnm

Taking the thread title at face value: country blues related video clips, here's a rare opportunity to see the mighty Buick 6 playing in a local pub. Inevitably the live performance has much more atmosphere, but this gives an idea of the chemistry between the three players: Roger Hubbard, vocals, guitars, mandolin; Colin Gibson: Fender Bass, backing vocals and Liam Genockey: drums, backing vocals.

Got a little note from Del Rey saying she finally has the rawk video she's always wanted. 

For a cause of course.  Cute video.

Bicycle Blues - Del Rey

[Slack]

We rode bikes all over Seattle making the video to Del Rey's new single the last week in December. Del sings and delivers smoking guitar riffs. George St. John on slide guitar and Eric Eagle on drums help her bring it home. Del Rey is giving ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of the sales of this 45 RPM record to the Transportation Choices Coalition. I asked her twice to make sure. It's not after expenses. She's donating all of it.

Great stuff! Thanks for posting!
We love to ride our bikes here in Berlin. In fact, I bought a guitar case with shoulder straps and a battery powered amp, so I can bicycle my way on gigs and busking.

I bought my vinyl copy this morning.

Apologies if this has already been done - it really seems that it must have been, given the high quality. StillJreming's channel on YouTube contains some absolute gems played and sung with equal talent by a young chemist of African extraction now residing in the United States.

A lovely rendition of 'Will The Circle Be Unbroken' and 'From Four Til Late' stand out for me.

[Norfolk Slim]

Maddogirl- WOW Id not seen him before.  He is very very good indeed.  I scoured the page for a link to a cd or something to no avail...

[Johnm]

I'll second Slim's thanks, maddoggirl, he really is an exceptionally nice singer with nice relaxed time--so natural sounding.  The Brazilian tune "So Danco Samba" is a fine version too.  Thanks!
All best,
Johnm
