მეც დავტოვებ ჩემს კვალს ამ თემაში თქვენი ნებართვით.
მოკლედ საინტერესო ათეულია..თქვენ რას ფიქრობთ?
Ten: Robert Johnson (1911 - 1938)
Before any of the blues players on this list, there was Robert Johnson. He is considered to be the "grandfather of rock'n' roll" and he wrote Crossroads a good four decades before people heard Eric Clapton playing it. Clapton called Johnson "the most important blues musician who ever lived"* (*quote from Wikipedia). Unfortunately Johnson's life was cut short by an angry husband. I went down to the crossroads, I tried to flag a ride.
Nine: Elmore James (1918-1963)
"The King of the Slide Guitar", Elmore James was a great guitar player and singer of the blues. I have some greatest hits collections of Elmore James and his four disc set the Fire & Enjoy Sessions. One of his most popular songs was Dust My Broom (written by Robert Johnson). James had a raw sound that really hits you with his accompanying slide guitar skills. I'm gonna get up in the mornin I believe I'll dust my broom
Eight: Howlin' Wolf (1910-1976)
His real name was Chester Arthur Burnett, but this large Mississippi blues man has an unmistable deep growling voice that earning him his nickname Howlin' Wolf. With songs like Spoonful and Little Red Rooster he influenced future generations of rock n' roll. Howlin Wolf has been covered by The Rolling Stones, Megadeth, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Stevie Ray Vaughn, George Thorogood and PJ Harvey. one little spoon of your precious love is good enough for me, men lie about that spoonful, some cry about that spoonful, some die about that spoonful, everybody fight about a spoonful that spoon, that spoon that spoonful
Seven: Sam 'Lightin' Hopkins (1912-1982)
Texas blues man 'Lightin' Hopkins was first discovered by me in a compilation called Mojo Hand. Two discs of awesome blues guitar and vocals. He has a rough gritty sound that makes you feel the blues, and his guitar work is incredible. I'm goin to Louisiana and get me a mojo hand, I'm gonna fix my woman, so she can't have no other man
Six: Muddy Waters (1915-1983)
Even people who don't know the blues know the name Muddy Waters. He is considered as one of the greatest blues players of all time and the father of the Chicago Blues. His real name was McKinley Morganfield. That info is from Wikipedia. All I can add to it is that a disc of Muddy Waters was one that turned me onto the blues, and many more followed including a big box set of Muddy himself, and most of the artists on this list. now when I was a young boy at the age of five my mother said I'll be the greatest man alive. And now I'm a man You know the riff.
Five: Stevie Ray Vaughn (1954-1990)
One of the greatest guitar players of all time (no. 7 in a 2003 Rolling Stones list, and in my Top Ten Guitar Players list, Stevie Ray Vaughn is on my list of top ten favorite blues players because he has kept blues alive, when many blues artists had been forgotten. Any artist that can cover Hendrix and make it sound great has my respect. He was a highly influential blues musician, and brought blues to generations of rock n roll fans not familiar with the others on this list. she's my sweet little thang...she's my pride and joy, she's my sweet little baby I'm her little lover boy
Four: Willie Dixon (1915-1992)
This former Golden Gloves heavyweight champion was not only a blues singer and bass player, he WROTE many of the most popular blues songs that still exist in rock n' roll today, including tracks like Bring it on Home, Built for Comfort, Evil, Hoochie Coochie Man, I Ain't Superstitious, I can't Quit you Baby, I just want to make love to you, Little Red Rooster, Spoonful, Walkin the Blues, You Shook Me and You Need Love. Led Zeppelin's Whole Lot of Love now credits Dixon for the song after a 1985 lawsuit was settled. (info on Willie Dixon culled from Wikipedia) you know you shook me, you shook me all night long, whoa you shook me pretty mama, you shook me all night long
Three: Albert Collins (1932-1993)
Known as the Master of the Telecaster or The Iceman, Albert Collins was truly a talented blues guitar player. You can see and hear for yourself, some of Collins last shows were preserved for prosperity months before his demise The Iceman at Mount Fuji. The sound of Collins Telecaster is very distinct, he is a great lead guitar player. every Monday mornin' I drink black coffee and I clear my head, because every Sunday night without you baby, it's blue Monday, you know baby you know my soul is dead
Two: John Lee Hooker (1917-2001)
Boom Boom Boom, one of this legendary blues mans songs Boogie Chillun was taken note for note and lyric for lyric by Led Zeppelin in The Lemon Song. He has simple blues compositions that are raw and gritty. You may have seen him play himself in The Blues Brothers. Even in his later years, he continued to release great albums like Mr. Lucky one night I was layin down, I heard mama n papa talkin, I heard papa tell mama, let that boy boogie woogie
One: B.B. King (1925 - ?)
The King of the Blues is the only artist on this list that is still rocking today. My son and I saw B.B. King last year on his 80th Birthday Bash tour, and the man can still play that unmistakable blues guitar on Lucille and has a voice that fills a concert hall. If you want a taste of how great B.B. sounded live you could check out Chronicles a box set of three live concert CDs. B.B. King has not slowed down in recording great music either as his recent Reflections proves. The thrill is gone baby, the thrill is gone away, you know you done me wrong baby, and you'll be sorry someday
Well there it is, my favorite ten great blues artists whose influences are still heard today.
