"You can try to be cool, but you can't be T-bone cool." Love it! I'm stealing this.

[sjf]

"You can't play like that looking like this", LOVE IT! Much respect.

This morning I was listening to "Don't Throw Your Love on me so Strong" from that same show. T-Bone had great sound.

T Bone Walker Is from Oak Cliff Texas. He was Awesome. Stevie Ray Vaughan loved T Bone. Stevie named his Dawg after him. ❤❤❤❤

"We should all wear suits again". Hell yeah! LOL

Love this video because I just had the same realization or questioning. After watching Henry Garza (lonely Boys) totally amaze the audience with the song Cottonfields and Crossroads I went to watch some blues players and came across TBone Walker and realized that everything Henry Garza was doing well TBone had already done it. Not to take anything away from Garza it was just the realization that these blues men were the true rock Gods. Our rock Gods, Page, SRV, and H Garza just took their genius and expanded on it and made it their own. OMG, what an absolutely awesome American story!!

Fun to see the 1966 version of Tinder is just looking to the rafters and waiting for the head nod back. Doesn't get much cooler than that.

I was practicing a Tbone walker song .. trying to learn the blues being an intermediate player, self learning, blindly .. , at home ..and then this happens 😱😱 .. THANK YOU❤❤

T-Bone was a major influence on Chuck Berry. Give a listen to "Strollin' With Bones" (recorded in 1950) and hear a lot of the riffs Chuck Berry later made famous. I think T-Bone was also the first guy to play behind his head and the first to play with his teeth.

I first started to listening to T-Bone when I was in high school (70s)...could not believe that a dude could play guitar like that.

[Phillip-yd]

That's a beautiful looking Non-Fender guitar 😁
sounds great too

[johnmahler]

T-Bone is the man! Thanks for another great post. What is also great about this clip are all the jazz super stars in the band. Dizzy, Coleman, Zoot, to name a few.

You just looked it up (7min30)... but I was just about to comment; 1966 "Jazz at the Philharmonic" here in old England.

It's part of a longer video, where perhaps more impressively, T-Bone transitions into this uptempo number after a proper slow jazzy blues number (containing more of his trademark licks) where one of the horn section plays an amazing "trumpet" solo in his bare hands. Well worth a look Mr Palmisano.

And man I love T-Bone. The live videos of him on youtube are generally 15-20 years after he cut his records... and it seems he only got better! Theres a great show of him and B.B. playing together (poor quality video, but the playing is 🔥)

When you got Diz behind you, you KNOW you're a bona fide FRONT MAN!

[bkmeahan]

"I don't know what year this is" that's what I say almost every morning when I wake up.

[andyhart]

Named my kid after T-bone, I also own the same PRS. Great video.

[UziRyder]

Nobody can be TBone cool. Damn right.

[TheWdayton]

Damn, I want to write a song for that opening riff you were noodling on! That was pretty hot for non-musician ears.

[CamF]

Hearing that guitar intro I'm IMMEDIATELY hooked

Unfiltered is why we watch💕 I was playing along badly on my borrowed ukulele. But you get me playing (see what you and UIAS have done? 😒.). Signing up now for Blues Weekend (first weekend EVERY month??😃)💕🙋🎶
