T-bone Walker performs "Don't throw your love on me so strong" from The American Folk Blues Festival collection. He was a pioneer of electric guitar, and he has influenced a lot of blues guitar players like Chuck Berry, Albert King, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, BB King or SRV and many more... This was recorded in 1962 for the Horst Lippman's TV show called "Jazz gehört & gesehen" (Jazz heard & seen) on the SWF ( German TV station located in Baden-Baden).

    Thanks so much lazur1 that's great to know.
  6. Jered Says:
    great comment lazur1 - spot on - and you can go back and back and back...so many important people along the way to give us what we enjoy today...though, it's mostly yesterday that i enjoy!
  7. RINJI Says:
    yeah I think you're right. I think it's one of the early models, like 52 or before - because the later ones had that distinctive long panel switch near the cutaway rather than the round knob.
  8. Wilona Says:
    A/(the?) major influence on both BB King & Chuck Berry, who in turn became the major influences on blues & rock guitarists. There's no telling how differently music would have turned out without him.
  9. Aiden Says:
    Augmented. Triad:1/M3/#5. Intervals: Stacked Maj 3rds Fingering's common for Maj triad on d/g/b strings. Played on a/d/g , it's augmntd. BB King often strums an augmntd chord for his 5 chord. A regular 5 is very stable & can resolve a progression almost as strongly as a tonic. Augmntds are out of scale, unstable, implying there's more to come. T-bone uses it to jar the listener out of complacency. The trick: hit it for a split second & never repeat it. No one knows what hit'em.
  10. Morrie Says:
    absolutely agree
  11. Camdyn Says:
    really fantastic, i think it's a gibson SWITCHMASTER ( like Carl Perkins) un grand merci à SRVFAN 79
  12. Dallas Says:
    He is just genius! What a singing AND guitar playing! Does anyone know that T-Bone and Charlie Christian, 9 years younger than T-Bone, were friends and played together when they were kids in Oklahoma City? They both originated electric guitar playing!
  13. Iona Says:
    Can anyone figure out the arpeggios he's playing at 3:42-3:46??
  14. RUSSELL Says:
    im not quite sure... he might have started on a slide guitar... he gets amazing tone from that angle too
  15. Westen Says:
    fantastic, but does anybody know why he is holding his guitar like that?
  16. LYSANDRA Says:
    RIP T-Bone...you will be sourly missed.
  17. COURTLAND Says:
    looks like an old gibson L5?
  18. Ban Says:
    hes so smooth...Chill music. But it excites me at the same time....IM SO CONFUSED! I dont know if I should dance or lay back.
  19. Adsila Says:
    what's that guitar again? Nice sound.... And big body on it.
  20. Corvin Says:
    when will we see one for da lonely on youTube? Anything from daddy Hemingway?
  21. Muire Says:
    what a musician, and a character too.
  22. Enando Says:
    Yep, just the cable :-)
  23. Hugiherahta Says:
    Wow, I don't think any musician has ever touched me the first few seconds of playing like T-Bone just has. Oh, and I felt like this the whole way through. So beautiful ... Amazing musician.
  24. Lufti Says:
